Sajid Nadiadwala and Tabu

After the death of actress Divya Bharti, his sympathy turned into love for Sajid. Before Divya Bharti’s death, Tabu and Sajid were just good friends.

The real love between Sajid Nadiadwala and Tabu started when she was working as an actress in the film Jeet directed by Sajid.

The two spent a lot of time together during the shooting of the film and in fact they started dreaming of marriage with Sajid. But Sajid was hesitant to commit to him as he still had feelings for his wife Late Divya.

He asked Sajid several times to forget his past and start afresh with their new relationship. Sajid stuck to his decision and in the end both also ended.

Tabu and Akkini Nagarjuna

South star Akkineni Nagarjuna entered as the third person in the life of Tabu, who was betrayed by her first boyfriend. But his affair with Nagarjuna was very painful.

Nagarjuna was already married when he started dating Tabu. After a long ten years with the married man, she realized that he was not going to leave his wife. Because Nagarjuna was already married twice and he was in no mood to get married for the third time. This made him realize that he would never be able to get the status of a wife in his life.

Thinking of this, Tabu made up his mind to break a 10-year relationship with him and later ended his relationship with Nagarjuna as well.

Recalling the old days, in an interview to Mumbai Mirror in 2017, Tabu had said:

“Yes, Ajay and I have known each other for 25 years. He was a neighbor and close friend of my cousin Sameer Arya, who was part of my growing up years and that laid the foundation for our relationship. When I was young, Sameer and Ajay would spy on me, go after me and threaten to beat up any boy caught talking to me. He was a big badass and if I am single today, it is because of Ajay. I hope he will repent and repent of what he has done. “
