Sua Sulu

A story that could have taken a very dramatic turn has been handled very well that it fits perfectly as a feel-good film for the housewives of India. Vidya Balan has been praised as one of the best actresses in Bollywood so many times with so many adjectives over the years that nothing more is to be said. Never going preachy, sentimental or tries to satisfy societies' patriarchy but keep check of the pragmatic possibilities, this is the kind of progressive film that satisfies most kind of people.

Vidya Balan as Sulochna made a awesome acting, in fact it is unforgettable. Other actors are too good, Otherwise some people are sending negative replies can be the reason of it's story. Anyway if you watch this movie on a boring afternoon, It will make your entire day. The story is sometime slow that is why you may feel bored..!! Overall the movie is full of emotions including fun... Both is in same time If you miss this movie, never mind you will definitely watch this movie after watching it receiving awards

Worth spending 2+ hours on this refreshing flick. The story is similar to a modern-day fairy tale.

Vidya, as the carefree house-wife, who wants to do something different is refreshing. Manav Kaul as the doting husband & father who is frustrated at work, has a very understated performance. Felt like Neha's performance as Maria was quite a caricature.

TUMHARI SULU REVIEW : When i saw it's Trailer i was like, OMG this is daily happening story and why no one made film on this topic before in bollywood? Since i was excited to see something new in the film let me tell you that hasn't happened, this film surpassed all ordinary expectations but nothing new or special, still it has all the elements to be called a Decent to Good Film.

Vidya Balan's Natural Acting left me with strong impact and i think she will definitely receive Best Actress nominations in Indian award shows. This should be called Manav Kaul's debut film in a lead role, despite being an lady oriented film his role is almost like a lead hero in film and he gave justice to his character. Other star cast is okay at their level.

Screenplay is Decent, run time could have been trimmed by 10-12 minutes. Excluding that film has no bore moments, it's throughout entertaining and engaged. It makes you laugh, keeps you hooked and has emotions too.

Music is Average, Ban Ja Rani is a Hit, all Other songs are average yet situational and are picturised very well.

Cinematography is below par. As this is a realistic plot i was expecting some regular angles and frames but this one goes filmy.

Direction and Writing is done by Triveni and it deserves appreciation for this unique idea. Film doesn't lose it's grip from the start to end except few dull moments and songs in between and that all credit goes to Triveni.

Overall, Tumhari Sulu is a Decent film and should be watched by all Housewives and husbands together. This might leave you with some message on life, even if doesn't give you any message still it worths you ticket purchase for good entertaining elements. At Box Office this film might find tough because appeal is very limited and competition is not in limit, though it will do an Average business for sure, no one can stop a Good Cinema from getting a success. I give 6/10* stars to this well crafted unique story and admires makers for their daring.

There were times Bollywood used to make simple and warm stories on lives of middle class family in Mumbai. Films like Baaton Baaton Mein, Chhoti Si Baat or Sansar touched the audience hearts as you could connect with real-life characters. Tumhari Sulu is like a breath of fresh air with superb performance by Vidya Balan.

Tumhari Sulu tells the story of Sulochna who loves to try out new things in life. However, her life changes when she gets the opportunity to become a Radio Jockey for a late-night call show.

First time director, Suresh Triveni, chooses a niche subject to make his Bollywood debut and comes out with a fruitful result. Right from the opening scene, the film will instantly connect you with the real-life characters. The story of a middle class family depicted in Mumbai along with their daily life struggle and happiness is heart-warming and yet convincing. Few scenes will grab your eyeballs- the audition of Vidya Balan at the Radio station, the confrontation between Manav Kaul and Vidya Balan when she gets her first salary and Vidya Balan making her first call as Radio Jockey is spellbinding and memorable. Unfortunately, the script loses the steam in the second half and weak climax plays the spoilsports. Few scenes looks forced which slows down the momentum it built in the first half.

Editing could have been better. Art direction and Cinematography is decent while the music is a plain average. Dialogues are powerful while background is just about okay. The captain of the ship is none other than Vidya Balan. The supremely talented just brings life into the film with electrifying performance. She is equally supported by Manav Kaul who throws in a good surprise. Neha Dhupia and Vijay Maurya provides in adequate support.

Overall, a well-made film with a weak second half. Thank god, Vidya Balan was there to save my day. Good 3/5
