Mumbai: Actress Tabu opened up about the importance of a director for her as an actor during a throwback media interaction.

Tabu had claimed that she is a director’s actor and hence her performance depends heavily on the filmmaker.

She also went on to add that her first priority is that the movie is good, and her character comes only after that.

Tabu stated that even if she has been blessed with a good role, it is up to the director to get the best out of her.

The Andhadhun actress said, “I think my performance and more than performance, I think whether the film is good or bad depends on the director. So, it is very important for me that the director is good.”

“Firstly, I want the film’s director to be good and sensible, and then my role, obviously. Because I have to have a good director. Even if it’s a good role, the director has to get out the best from me. I depend on the director. I am a director’s artist,” she added.

Meanwhile, Tabu first appeared on the screen back in 1985 as a teenager in Dev Anand’s We are young people. In 1991, she was seen in her first lead role in the Telugu film Coolie No. 1.

She first tasted success in 1994 with the Hindi film industry drama Vijaypath.
