Mumbai: Bollywood’s versatile actress Tabu, who turned 50 on Wednesday, blames good friend Ajay Devgn for still being single.
During the promotion of ‘De De Pyaar De’, Tabu revealed that Ajay and her cousin Sameer Arya used to thrash boys who wanted to befriend her during college days.
“When I was young, Sameer and Ajay would spy on me, follow me around and threaten to beat up boys who are caught talking to me. They were the big bullies and if I am single today, it is because of Ajay. I hope he repents and regrets what he did,” Tabu quipped during an interview with Mumbai Mirror.
On a serious note, the actress said that she cherishes her friendship with Ajay. She feels comfortable working with him and shares a unique bond with the actor.
“Ajay and I go a really, really long way back, from the time we were 13 or 14. He is my brother’s childhood friend and because we all grew up together in a locality in Juhu, he was always a part of the whole boys’ gang while we were just giggling girls, hanging around and trying to get some attention,” she told Hindustan Times in an interview.
“Our relationship has grown because we have worked so much with each other. From among the male actors, if there is anyone I can count on, it’s Ajay. He is a like a child and yet so protective. The atmosphere on set when he’s around is stress-free. We share a unique relationship and an unconditional affection,” she added.
Tabu and Ajay Devgn will be sharing screen space after 23 years in ‘De De Pyaar De’. The duo left cash registers ringing with their films ‘Drishyam’, ‘Golmaal Again’, ‘Vijaypath’ and ‘Haqeeqat’.
