'Layered characters are closer to real life and are more engaging', says Tabu

Rewned Indian actress, Tabu, recently said that she has h an affinity towards layered characters, which demands more from her as an artiste. She believes that characters with grey shes are closer to real life.

"When a character is layered, it is automatically more interesting and engaging for me because it demands more from you and in return, it also gives you more. For me, it has always been about experience of immersing myself into se characters that attract me, wher y are grey or t. I always thought that re is thing wrong in playing characters that are layered, grey or dark, because a human being is me up of all se feelings, emotions and character traits. I was always happy and excited to portray se things on screen," Tabu said.

She feels blessed to collaborate with directors who approach a film differently and have ir own unique style of film-making. "I have been very lucky to be offered all kinds of cinema and roles. Different directors have come to me with varied characters. I have been open to different kinds of films and audiences have also accepted me. I think what has worked or way I have worked, is that I have never differentiated between any film," she said.

TABU ON 'ANDHHUN'

Tabu feels ecstatic to star in film and says that movie should t be classified under a particular genre. "I think it is a completely different film and format than 'Drishyam'. You can't call it a thriller. You just can't classify it into any kind of film because you kw Sriram's work and his cinematic langu is completely unique to him. So re is really label that you can attach to this film. It is also a different kind of experience for actors to do this kind of film and be part of this kind of storytelling."

She furr ded, "I knew this experience would be entirely new and very learning for me as an actor. To work with different minds has always been very exciting for me and that's what drew me to this film. I knew what Sriram does with his characters and actors and so I was also very confident that this film would stand out and that it will be a significant role for me to play."
