Tabu on her unique relationship with the actor who she’s romancing on screen again after 23 years, why she’s still single but no longer afraid to mingle and why the Golmaal franchise is irresistible.
Are you just romancing the job or is there a special someone in your life too?
If you asking whether there is a romance brewing, then the answer is ‘no’.
But you will admit that you have metamorphosed from an Eid ka chand to a party animal?
I was reserved when I was younger and doubtful about what to do and where to go. Farah Khan’s house is the only place where I was comfortable and I’m still happy when I’m around her.
Today, I’m all grown up and go where I think I should. Professional appearances are tiresome, but for friends I will walk the extra mile. House-parties are great and the nice thing is that whether I dropped by or not, friends like Shah Rukh Khan and Karan Johar never stopped inviting me to their homes. When you’ve been in films for over two decades, the film industry is your home.
Golmaal Again will mark your return to slapstick comedies after more than a decade. What was the experience like?
