Ajay Devgn and Tabu are not just co-stars with a successful on-screen history; they share a bond that runs deep off-screen as well. The two actors, who have worked together in over ten films, have been close friends. Their camaraderie was once again on full display during the promotions of their last film Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha. Though the film didn’t perform as expected at the box office, their chemistry—on and off-screen—continues to win hearts.
A throwback video from the film's promotional campaign recently resurfaced online, bringing a fresh wave of nostalgia and laughter. In the interview with Navodaya Times, Ajay Devgn jokingly unveiled the reason why Tabu is still unmarried. His witty comment left fans amused and gave a glimpse into the light-hearted friendship the duo shares.
When asked what kind of man would be suitable for Tabu, Ajay quipped, “Tabu ko main chahiye, usko wo mil nahi sakta (Tabu wants me but that can’t happen).” The humorous remark instantly sparked laughter, and Tabu responded with mock disbelief, playfully nudging Ajay. He quickly clarified his comment with a grin, saying, “Matlab mere jaisa yaar. Mere jaisa aur koi duniya mein hai nahi (I mean someone like me. But there’s no one like me in this world).”
Tabu, with her signature wit, responded warmly to Ajay’s joke. “Exactly, main samajh gayi meri jaan (I understood, my dear),” she said as she kissed his hand affectionately. Adding to the fun banter, she noted, “Ye aise hain toh mujhe bardasht karte hain. Kuch aur hotey toh shayad mujhe bardasht nahi kar paate (He tolerates me because he’s like this. Someone else might not have been able to).” The candid moment offered fans a glimpse into the deep understanding and affection between the two stars.
Tabu further reflected on her single status, drawing a humorous comparison. “Meri toh shaadi bhi nahi hui, tumne toh fir bhi shaadi kar li, bacche kar liye (I am not married yet, but you got married and have kids now),” she told Ajay, highlighting the different life paths they have taken.
Their bond dates back to their early collaboration in Vijaypath (1994), where their chemistry first caught the audience’s attention. Over the years, they have worked together in acclaimed films such as Thakshak, Drishyam, and Drishyam 2. Although there were rumours of a romantic link between the two in the early days, fans have come to appreciate the purity of their friendship, which has only grown stronger with time.
On the work front, Tabu is all set to appear in Bhooth Bangla, alongside Akshay Kumar and Paresh Rawal. Meanwhile, Ajay Devgn, who was last seen in Azaad, is gearing up for an action-packed year with Raid 2, Son of Sardaar 2, and De De Pyaar De 2 in the pipeline.
With their unbreakable bond and infectious camaraderie, Ajay and Tabu continue to redefine what friendship in Bollywood truly looks like.
