Nagarjuna stated that Tabu will always be his beautiful companion in an interview with The Times Of India: Tabu is a great friend of mine yes. Since I was 21 or 22 and she was only 16 years old our friendship had a long history. That resembles virtually a half-life... Whatever is said about our friendship is less. Regarding her I have nothing to conceal. My face glows when you speak her name.. (laughs). That's how easy it is. Now if you want to read anything into what I say when I say stuff like that that is your choice. I see her as a beautiful friend.
