In this interview with Rajeev Masand, Tabu, the versatile star of such films as Maachis, Chandni Bar, Astitva, Maqbool andThe Namesake reveals how director Vishal Bhardwaj convinced her to play Shahid Kapoor's mother in his Hamlet adaptation,Haider.

She said that the fact that the mother - son relationship had lover-overtones...that made the character interesting for her..as it has never been done before in Hindi cinema..

this incestrual portions might backfire big time as indian audience is not ready for it... hope Vishal hasn't overdone and showed it in too many scenes or made it the core of the movie
