Tabu is celebrating her 54th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed actresses of her generation.

Popular actress Tabu (Life of Pi, Virasat, Maachis, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 54th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Tabu, a cultural icon

Born Tabassum Hashmi in Hyderabad on November 4, 1971, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Indian history. Tabu's not just a great actress, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Tabu hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Tabu as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 54.

Happy Birthday, Tabu, you're the best!
