Tabu has been one of the finest talents of Hindi Cinema whose films and characters have always resonated with fans and critics alike. Right from Maachis to Hu Tu Tu to Maqbool to Talvar to Haider to Drishyam, she has aced all the roles she has played on the screen.


In an interview with Times of India, she talked about the portrayal of women on the celluloid in cinema today and also gives her take on female characters driven by lust, greed and power. She said, “If you want to show lust where a woman is concerned or greed for power, I don’t see it as wrong or blasphemous.”


She added, “I don’t understand why we have to wonder… how can this happen in the world? Who are we fooling? It is fine to have characters with all the correct moral values, I am a big fan of that, too. At the same time, I don’t see why all these intense emotions and unconventional relationships should not be explored on screen. In fact, I find it interesting and satisfying to delve into such roles. What is so indigestible about it? I don’t shy away from portraying unconventional relationships and characters on screen."


She also stated, “I know of the existence of complexities in the realm of the human mind and in relationships, and I don’t know why there has to be any form of denial in portraying that on screen."

Not only the aforementioned films, the actress has also been a part of films like Jawaani Jaaneman, AndhaDhun, Jai Ho, Golmaal Again, De De Pyaar De, Vijaypath, and Hum Saath Saath Hain. She is now gearing up for Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 with Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani.
