A family that laughs together stays together believes Tabu. Rahul Gangwani shares a lighthearted banter with the actor.
Tabu has always been an enigma wrapped in alluring mystery. She has always done her own thing, right from the beginning of her career, choosing films not for their commercial viability but because they satisfied the actor in her. Such conformity to ideals wouldn’t have been easy but thankfully she has got a super support system in place. For someone who has played powerful women-centric roles, the inspiration comes from her immediate world. For the first time, she speaks openly about the support she’s got from her mother, her elder sister Farah and even her young nephew Fateh Randhawa. Excerpts from a straight-from-the-heart interview…
Few are aware of your fun loving streak, which is in such a contrast from the serious roles you play…
I’ll die if I’m around people who don’t have a sense of humour. I can’t live without it. (Laughs) Recently, I’ve distanced myself from good friends, who didn’t have a sense of humour. I can’t deal with them. They are lovely people. But I can’t feel heavy when I’m with them. A sense of humour is important in our lives. Everyone in my family is born with a funny bone. It’s not easy for outsiders to handle us. Whoever gets married in our family will take a long time to get used to our sense of humour. We are also judgmental about people who don’t laugh at our jokes. I have serious instructions from my family. They will reject any guy who doesn’t get our jokes. So I’m trying to find a guy like that.
