The character of Sulu is fun, happy-go-lucky and grounded, everything that Vidya (Balan) is even in real life. Suresh Triveni is a debut talent to watch out for and we look forward to our association with T-Series, a market leader in the filmed entertainment space.`

Director Suresh Triveni said, `Tumhari Sulu has been handcrafted for Vidya (Balan) and to have her as a lead in my first feature is an honour.
