‘Tumhari Sulu’ will unleash my naughty side: Vidya Balan

Mumbai: Actress Vidya Balan says her upcoming film “Tumhari Sulu”, in which she plays a radio jockey, will bring out her naughty side on-screen.

“I am busy with ‘Begum Jaan’ and ‘Tumhari Sulu’, both are completely different films. ‘Tumhari Sulu’ is a fun film. Sulu is a late night RJ and it will unleash the naughty side of me,” Vidya told PTI.

Helmed by Suresh Triveni, the story revolves around a woman named Sulochana, fondly known as Sulu. She lands herself an unexpected job of a fun and feisty RJ and anchors a late night show.

The National Award-winning actress is equally excited about Srijit Mukherji’s historical drama “Begum Jaan”.

“‘Begum Jaan’ is a period historical film set in the partition time. It’s a very powerful story that I felt compelled to tell,” Vidya said.

The film, an adaptation of the 2015 Bengali film “Rajkahini”, is scheduled to release in March.
