After garnering plaudits for playing a mother in "Haider", versatile actress Tabu will be back on the silver screen with more power in a police officer's avatar in "Drishyam".
There is a recurring pattern in Tabu's choice of films -- be it "Cheeni Kum" or "Chandni Bar" and that is the strong female characters. This time too, the actress will play the role of IG Meera Deshmukh, who will go to any lengths to unmask the truth.
The role is touted as the toughest role she has ever portrayed, read a statement.
"Drishyam", a thriller directed by Nishikant Kamat, also features Ajay Devgn. He plays a middle class family man named Vijay Salgaonkar.
A Panorama Studios and Viacom 18 Motion Pictures Production, presented by Viacom 18 Motion Pictures, "Drishyam" is produced by Kumar Mangat Pathak, Ajit Andhare and Abhishek Pathak.
