And at that point, the love and warmth of her in-laws come to her rescue. They make her feel comfortable in her new house so that she never misses her parent’s home. It is her sister-in-law, who becomes her best friend and in whom she could confide all her feelings. One such adorable bhabhi-nanad jodi of Bollywood is Shabana Azmi and Tanvi Azmi.

Just like her sister-in-law, Shabana Azmi, Tanvi Azmi is one of the finest actors of Bollywood. According to a report by Asian Age, in Renuka Shahane’s directorial debut, Tribhanga, the role which was earlier offered to Shabana ji had been taken over by her sister-in-law, Tanvi Azmi. Tribhanga stars Kajol in the lead role and it would be amazing to see Tanvi Azmi sharing screens space with Kajol after Dushman. Talking about Shabana ji’s exit from the film, director Renuka Shahane had said, “Shabanaji couldn’t do the film because of the offer she got from Stephen Spielberg.” This is not the first time that Tanvi is stepping into her sister-in-law’s shoes as the role of Radhabhai in Bajirao Mastani was earlier offered to Shabana ji.
