Tabu does not want to be part of Madhuris gang?

For Anubhav Sinhas Gulab Gang, Tabu is believed to have been approached to play a politician. However, it seems she turned down the role because she wanted the lead role, which is being played by Madhuri Dixit. Tabu refused the film because she wanted to play Madhuris role of a female vigilante who heads a group of women who help other women solve their problems, reveals a source from the films unit. When contacted, Tabu says, I was approached for the protagonists role many years ago. Because of lack of funds, the film never went on the floors. They may have tried to get in touch with me this time, but we havent had a fresh meeting. Reports of me wanting Madhuris role are baseless.Produced under the Benaras Media Works banner, Gulab Gang is a story of a gang of women fighting against social injustice. The film is being directed by former film journalist Soumik Sen and is likely to have Mahie Gill and Shilpa Shukla as part of Madhuris gang. It will go on the floors after the monsoon and release next year on Womens Day. The source adds, The politicians role is just as strong as Madhuris. Raveena Tandon, Karisma Kapoor and other actors have also been approached. While Sinha is away shooting in Fiji, Soumik confirms he had approached Tabu a while ago. I will speak to Anubhav and reply, said Soumik when we spoke to him. However, later, he messaged, saying, No comments.
