Tabu in 2012

Indian actress Tabu, also credited as Tabbu, has appeared in Hindi, Telugu, English, Tamil, Malayalam and Bengali films. Tabu's first credited role came as a teenager in Dev Anand's Hum Naujawan (1985), and her first major role was in the Telugu film Coolie No. 1 (1991).[1][2] In 1994, she starred in two Hindi films—the romance Pehla Pehla Pyar and the action drama Vijaypath—and received the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut for the latter.[3] After appearing in a series of poorly received films, including Prem and Saajan Ki Baahon Mein (both 1995), the year 1996 was key for Tabu.[4] Her performance as a young woman affected by the Punjab insurgency in Gulzar's Maachis (1996) proved to be a breakthrough for her, and won her the National Film Award for Best Actress.[4][5] Also that year, Tabu won the Filmfare Award for Best Actress – Telugu for the romance Ninne Pelladata, and featured alongside Govinda and Karisma Kapoor in the commercially successful comedy film Saajan Chale Sasural.[6][7]

Tabu had a brief role in the war film Border, the highest-grossing Hindi film of 1997, and portrayed a village girl opposite Anil Kapoor in the Priyadarshan-directed drama Virasat.[8][9] Among her 1999 releases were two of the top-grossing Bollywood films of the year—the comedy Biwi No.1, and the family drama Hum Saath-Saath Hain.[10] She also starred as the rebellious daughter of a corrupt politician in Gulzar's Hu Tu Tu (1999).[11] The film garnered positive reviews from critics but performed poorly at the box office.[12] The following year, she starred in Kandukondain Kandukondain, a Tamil adaptation of Jane Austen's novel Sense and Sensibility, and played a submissive homemaker in the bilingual drama Astitva.[13][14] Tabu garnered a second National Film Award for Best Actress for portraying a bar dancer in Madhur Bhandarkar's crime drama Chandni Bar (2001).[15][16] In 2003, she starred in the Bengali film Abar Aranye, and portrayed Nimmi, a character based on Lady Macbeth, in Maqbool—an adaptation of William Shakespeare's Macbeth from director Vishal Bhardwaj.[17][18] Her other releases of 2003—the erotic thriller Hawa and the action drama Jaal: The Trap—were commercial failures.[19] The following year, Tabu played triple roles in M. F. Husain's musical drama Meenaxi: A Tale of Three Cities.[20]

The year 2006 saw Tabu star in her first international project—the Mira Nair-directed adaptation of Jhumpa Lahiri's novel The Namesake.[14][21] Also that year, she played a brief role in the romantic thriller Fanaa.[14] In R. Balki's Cheeni Kum (2007), Tabu starred alongside Amitabh Bachchan as a woman romantically involved with a much older man;[15] the role earned her a record fourth Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actress.[lower-alpha 1][23][24] Tabu took on fewer film projects over the next few years.[25] She played a prostitute in the Telugu film Pandurangadu (2008) and appeared briefly in Ang Lee's adventure film Life of Pi (2012).[26][27] In 2014, Tabu starred alongside Salman Khan in Jai Ho, and garnered critical acclaim for playing Ghazala Meer, a character based on Gertrude in Bhardwaj's adaptation of Shakespeare's Hamlet, entitled Haider.[28][29] She won the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress for the latter.[30] Tabu went on to garner praise for playing a senior police-officer in the thriller Drishyam (2015) and a character based on Miss Havisham in the drama Fitoor (2016).[31][32]
