When Pehla Pehla Pyar was released, movie
goers were awed by the beautiful refreshing face they saw of a very natural
and simplistic girl. This girl was Tabu. Rishi Kapoor was Tabu's Knight in
shining armour who rescues her from the clutches of her evil relatives in
Pehla Pehla Pyar.
Tabu's debut movie was supposed to be Prem. But as it happens with all Boney
Kapoor films, this movie took forever to be released. Sanjay Kapoor, was her
leading man in Prem.
Tabu's first tryst with the camera was in Naujawan (Directed by Dev Anand)
as a schoolgirl.
In the many movies that Tabu has appeared, one of the most noticeable things
is that she wears little or no make-up. This particular trait is not visible
among many other actresses of Bollywood.
With every film Tabu, has been growing as an actress. The proof of this
comes from the fact that she has been recently signed by the likes of Gulzar
and Mani Ratnam for their next films.
Apart from doing Hindi films, Tabu has also worked in a Malayalam film "Kala
Pani" where she co-stars with Prabhu & Mohanlal.
