Tabu and Ajay Devgn form one of the most beloved on-screen duos in Bollywood. They reunite for a romantic film after starring together in several iconic movies. In an exclusive interview with ETimes ahead of ‘Auron Mein Kya Dum Tha’s release, Tabu reflects on the nostalgic journey the trailer evokes, particularly for those who grew up in the 90s. She discusses the enduring appeal of their on-screen chemistry and what draws audiences to eagerly anticipate their pairing once again.
Tabu acknowledged, “Certainly, ‘Auron Mein Kya Dum Tha’ evokes a strong sense of nostalgia. This sentiment has been instrumental in the film’s reception. The authenticity shines through when audiences witness Ajay and me sharing the screen, almost as if we’ve reunited after 23 years, despite circumstances keeping us apart.”
She elaborated, “Audiences feel a deep connection with our on-screen relationship due to the iconic films and characters they’ve witnessed, particularly in recent hits like the ‘Drishyam’ series. Vijay Salgaonkar and Meera Deshmukh resonate with them as a pair. Whether it’s ‘Bholaa’, ‘Drishyam’, or ‘De De Pyaar De’, people easily associate us with these roles. We’ve also chosen projects that align with our current sensibilities. Ajay’s versatility allows him to seamlessly fit into various genres.” ‘Auron Mein Kya Dum Tha’ is slated for release on August 2, directed by Neeraj Pandey known for ‘Special 26’ and ‘Baby’.
