For those unversed Shabana and Tabu are related through their mothers. Shabana’s mother, Shaukat Kaifi, is the sister of Tabu’s mother, Rizwana Hashmi. This makes Shabana Tabu’s aunt.
It must be noted that regardless being in the industry for such a long time, Shabana and Tabu have not done a movie together, nor are the two expected to join forces for a project anytime soon.
Nevertheless, Shabana and Tabu have come together for a book in the past. Tabu had released the English translation of Shabana’s mother Shaukat Azmi’s biography “Kaifi & I”.
“Tabu and Shabana’s mother are very close. It was important to have the book released by someone who’s familiar with the language and the cultural ethos of those times. There could be no better choice than Tabu”, Shabana had shared.
Sharing why she hasn’t done any movie with Tabu, the veteran actress added, “It has to be something worth the while for both of them,”
Meanwhile on the workfront Tabu will next be seen in the third instalment of the popular ‘Drishyam’ franchise.
The starcast of the franchise features Ajay Devgn, Tabu, Shriya Saran, and Rajat Kapoor. They are returning for this edge-of-the-seat family thriller with the first schedule reportedly underway in Goa.
The Star Studio18 presentation and Panorama Studios production and Abhishek Pathak’s directorial film is penned by Abhishek Pathak, Aamil Keeyan Khan, and Parveez Shaikh. The project is being backed by Alok Jain, Ajit Andhare, Kumar Mangat Pathak, and Abhishek Pathak.
“Drishyam 3” is expected for a theatrical release on October 2.
