At one point in this film, the heroine identifies herself as a winner. Sulochana states this matter of factly - main winner hoon - because she has won a pressure cooker in a radio competition and feels the need to state who she is, but her character`s hunger to rack up victories is strong.

The Times of India
There`s a been a recent spate of Bollywood movies devoid of its typical glamorous sheen with a focus on the lives of middle-class suburban Indian households. Ad director turned filmmaker Suresh Triveni takes this into consideration in his big screen debut while writing the story around Vidya Balan as Sulochana or `Sulu`, a housewife whose achievements aren`t typically noteworthy, but that doesn`t stop her from dreaming big.

She`s a bubble, a balloon, a blabberer, Sridevi`s shadow, Sheikh Chilli`s long lost twin, a Cloud 9 resident, crazy contest addict and (on the outskirts of Mumbai) Virar`s spirited sari-wali bhabhi whose winning streak is as unswerving as the spring in her step and the smile on her lips.

Bollywood Life
Theres a scene in Tumhari Sulu where Vidya Balan wears a red cape and mimics being a super woman during a fun song sequence. Sulu makes a valid point in this goofy moment that every housewife who is juggling between her work and family is no less than a superhero.

In Tumhari Sulu, Sulochana couldnt pass 12th standard and couldnt even manage a bank job like her twin sisters Aaradhna and Kalpana, but Suresh Trivenis directorial debut passes with flying colors as Sulu soars higher. There`s much to love and little to complain about the film that runs like a slice of life narrative and balances the laughs and weeps well.

That killing oh Im just a housewife statement from a woman, hides, sometimes, a mountain of despair, and resentment, and uncomfortable questions: is that only what she is? A glorified maid plus the familys minder and keeper?

Times Now
Bollywood needs an actress like Vidya Balan. While actresses prefer to stay away from silver screen after marriage, Vidya Balan has been doggedly trying to sustain in an industry where fifty-plus heroes want to romance two-decade younger heroines. It also helps that she is a natural performer, but box office success has been eluding her for some time now.

Tumhari Sulu has plenty of shining moments. But for me, the scene involving RJ Sulu exchanging sweet nothings on her late night show with a lusty caller who can`t pick between his two lovers and another one which involves an elderly widower who misses his late wife stood out.

Tumhari Sulu is a happy story that aims to weave feminism, pragmatism, realism and a lot more in one film and narrates it with a light touch as well. With Vidya Balan headlining the project, all of this may not sound too ambitious.
