Tabbar

Akshay Oberoi is all praise for director Ajit Pal Singh. He worked with him in Gurgaon. Akshay calls him the director to watch out for in the future. Talking about Tabbar, the show tells a story of a Punjabi family but there are no “sarsoon ke khets” in the entire show. In fact, there is nothing conventional about Tabbar at all. It's subdued. It's menacing and most importantly, it's authentic," says Akshay.
