Yeah Tabu never made it big like her contemporaries like Madhuri, Aishwarya etc. She did mostly indie movies & character roles. She was never a star.

Just because her graph was different from others you cannot call her a "failure" especially when she is hailed as one of the best actress of Indian cinema.

Tabu is known for her stellar "acting" performances, not dancing.
It's like saying Nawazuddin Siddiquii didn't become a star, because he couldn't dance.smiley36

Since when did we start measuring success of actors by their dancing skills?🤔

And To be honest, this looks like a very mediocre film from the 90s.(never heard of this song/movie till now)
From cinematography, to choreography ...everything is so bad.Lol

Tabu is a terrific actress. And to be an actor, one doesn't need to excel in dance.
Otherwise actors in Hollywood wouldn't be called "actors", as they barely dance in their films.

Dancing is an integral part of Bollywood & actresses must excel this in order to become versatile, which Tabu wasn't hence she failed to make it big in Bollywood like her contemporaries & remained an indie & character actress only.

By the way, the choreographer must have dumbed down the routine for Tabu as she's a pathetic dancer. Here's an item song of Raveena from the same movie and she dances beautifully.

The worst actor and dancer is Kareena Kapoor. hands down. At least Alia can dance and act.

Her, Kareena and Bipasha the worst dancer ever 🤣

Tabu saw her dancing during maiya Yashoda from HSSH and it was too funny her hand getures and moves!

I still consider Kareena the worst dancer because her scrunched up expressions and weird hand movements piss me off.

Yeah Kareena can dance funny sometimes like in her earlier movies, but atleast she executes the choreography given to her properly unlike Tabu who can't even move properly.

Not the worst.. Atleast she tries and there is some elegance.. I liked her in Maya Ya Shoda even though Sonali and Karishma was far better.

Worst for me is Sonam and Alia - terrible expressions, no elegance and zero screen presence..
