Actress Tabu Instagrammed a delightful piece of throwback gold on Tuesday. It appears that the sepia-toned photograph has been in safely locked in Tabu's archive for decades and that she only recently stumbled upon it. The old picture features a younger version of Tabu,
her elder sister, actress Farah Naaz and their mother (Now we know Tabu looks like her mother). In the picture, Tabu appears to be not more than four or five-years old and visibly oblivious of the photo session. The photograph appears to have taken on the roof of a traditional Hyderabadi Bungalow and will instantly remind you of those lazy Sundays spent making
achaar with your grandmother in the attic. "The colour of memories... Mummy, bahen and Chanda the possessive one," Tabu captioned the pic on Instagram.
