Tabu Jokingly Blames Ajay Devgn for Remaining Single

Bollywood’s celebrated actress Tabu recently opened up about her single status in a resurfaced interview, playfully blaming her longtime friend and co-star Ajay Devgn for her remaining unmarried at 53. The candid revelation showcases the strong bond between the two actors who have known each other for 25 years.

A Childhood Connection with Protective Friends

In an interview with Mumbai Mirror, Tabu explained that Ajay Devgn was her cousin Sameer Arya’s neighbor and close buddy who became part of her growing-up years. She recounted how both Ajay and her cousin would “spy” on her, follow her around, and threaten to intimidate any boys caught talking to her. Tabu said with humor, “If I am single today, it is because of Ajay. I hope he repents and regrets what he did.”

Philosophy on Love and Independence

Beyond the playful blame, Tabu shared her deeper philosophy on relationships and happiness. In an interview with Hindustan Times Brunch, she emphasized that happiness comes from within and shouldn’t depend on relationship status. She highlighted that relationships should liberate rather than stifle personal growth, and that she never differentiated between men and women in romantic partnerships.

Tabu prioritized her independence and career, choosing to explore the world and develop herself professionally. She believes that an ideal relationship allows both individuals to grow together without sacrificing personal ambitions.

At 53, Tabu continues to thrive in Bollywood, recently starring alongside Ajay Devgn in Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha (2024). Her journey proves that professional excellence and personal fulfillment are achievable while living life entirely on one’s own terms, challenging conventional expectations about marriage and happiness.
