Tabu on ‘De De Pyaar De’: It is not really about young against old

Tabu, who will be seen in this week’s release ‘De De Pyaar De’, is going through a great time in her life. Last year, her role in ‘Andhadhun’ was loved by one and all.

Now, in a recent interview with Mumbai Mirror, Tabu was asked if ‘De De Pyaar De’ is an ageist film and her answer is sure to leave you impressed. “It is not really about young against-old but about different people and where they are in their lives. Everybody is going to have a different viewpoint. Someone in their 20s, who is starting off their life, will have different expectations from their partner; what they look for in love. Someone in their 40s, hopefully, comes with a different experience or understanding of love. It’s about growth… it’s about maturity,” she said.

Earlier, Tabu had also spoken up about how the film isn’t sexist. “Akiv Ali has offered an interesting take on relationships. Once you see it in the context of the film and not just the trailer, things become a lot clearer. The movie hasn’t been made with an intention to be sexist. In fact, the female characters in the film are strong; they take a stand and make their own decisions. So I’d like people to watch the movie and then comment,” she was quoted as saying by Mid-Day.

Tabu’s success is great in an industry where it is said that actresses have a shelf life in Bollywood.
