Tuesday, 22nd Sept 2015, 4:01 PM IST There were reports of Tabu being an integral part of Meghna Gulzar’s ‘Talvar’. However, the actress is not seen in any of the promos of the film. And now, it is said that the ‘Haider’ actress will be seen playing the role of Irrfan Khan’s wife in the film and will be having only a 3-minute role in the film. A source said, "Tabu makes a fleeting appearance as Irrfan Khan's wife. It's not even a role. It's a presence. Through her appearance, we get to know that the investigative officer (Irrfan) in the Arushi murder case has a life that he has a wife and they are going through some marital problems." Talking about why the actress agreed to do the role, the source said, "She is very close to the director Meghna Gulzar, the director's father Gulzar saab, and of course, to Irrfan. In their last film together, The Life Of Pi’, they didn't have any scenes together. Irrfan and Tabu have been looking forward to playing man and wife since ‘The Namesake’. This was their chance." Irrfan and Tabu were paired opposite each other in Vishal Bhardwaj's ‘Maqbool’ and Mira Nair's ‘The Namesake’, and the former wanted to complete his trilogy of romantic films with Tabu. A source said, "Irrfan Khan has done three films with Tabu after ‘Maqbool’ and ‘The Namesake’. But in Ang Lee's ‘Life Of Pi’, he had no single shot with Tabu. In Vishal Bhardwaj's ‘Haider’ also, Irrfan shares no screen space with Tabu. Now, in Meghna Gulzar's ‘Talvar’, where Irrfan plays a police officer investigating the death of a young girl, they play a couple confronting a marital crisis." Irrfan said, "I really want to do one more intense film with Tabu after ‘Maqbool’ and ‘The Namesake’, to complete our trilogy of passionate films."
