While the makers are still finalizing the rest of the cast, cinematographer Mahesh Muthuswami and editor Praveen KL have been signed up for the film. Talking about the project, Radha said, "I am excited to be directing such an appreciated film like Tumhari Sulu, and starring Jyotika no less, with whom I had a great association in Mozhi."
Excitement all around
Jyothika is a huge Vidya Balan fan
Jyothika, who was last seen in the much-loved 'Naachiyaar', is an ardent Vidya Balan admirer. "I love her voice and command over Hindi, which is rare in Bollywood today. I've watched every film of hers, and 'Tumhari Sulu', in my opinion, is her most lovable work," she said. Directed by debutant Suresh Triveni, the film narrated the story of a housewife named Sulu.
