Ellipsis
Entertainment and T-Series have inked their first deal together to produce a dra-medy,
TUMHARI SULU. Vidya Balan will play the lead, Sulochana, fondly known as Sulu.
Sulu
lands herself an unexpected job of a beautiful, fun and feisty RJ who anchors a
late-night show, known for its voyeuristic quality and semi-adult shenanigans.
Having
brought director Ram Madhvani to the forefront with Neerja, the partners at
Ellipsis are introducing the new-age ad film-maker, Suresh Triveni, who has a
host of TVCs for top brands to his credit, including IPL’s India-Pakistan Mauka
Mauka spot, which became a runaway viral sensation.
Confirmed
producer Bhushan Kumar, “Ellipsis is an avant-garde company with an eye for real,
relatable and clutter-breaking content. We are pleased to collaoborate with
today’s creative and marketing mavericks on this very special film, which will also
carry our stamp of unforgettable music.”
Said joint producers Tanuj
Garg, Atul Kasbekar and Shanti Sivaram Maini of Ellipsis, “In line with our
vision of backing engaging and entertaining high-concept content, we are
delighted to have found this gem of a script, which will make you cheer and
laugh in plenty. 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. I look forward to seeing
the story come alive as I have lived with it for almost a year now. I am
delighted to have found great producers, Ellipsis and T-Series, for this
incredible journey.”
Concluded
Vidya Balan, “Sulu is
like that nimbu... you add nimbu for taste or
then add it to balance taste; zesty & versatile! I think she'll unleash my naughty side.”
TUMHARI
SULU will be co-produced by Priya Gupta, Swati Iyer Chawla and Piya Sawhney. It
will release in end - 2017. It is an Ellipsis and T-Series joint production.
