Mrs. Tendulkar was a comedy series on SAB TV, scheduled to air every Monday to Friday at 9:30 pm IST. The show followed the daily lives of Suhaas and Vibhavari Tendulkar set in the Gangaram Godbole Sahkari bank colony. Suhaas stays at home while Vibhavari is the Manager of the Gangaram Godbole Sahkari Bank. Because he does all the chores in the house (traditionally done exclusively by women), the housewives of the colony call Suhaas Mrs. Tendulkar.

The show was based on the colony's culture and focuses on the Tendulkars' assimilation into it. Set in a Maharashtrian backdrop,. But Gujarati culture is also highlighted. It portrays and at times makes fun of gender roles in Indian culture. The Tendulkars' traditional-gender-role reversals are the subject of derision in the colony: since the colony members resist change in their comfortable lives, the arrival of the Tendulkar family upsets them as many of their set notions are challenged. In this way, the show implicitly embeds social commentary in its humour.

Mr. Suhas Tendulkar(Deven Bhojani)- He is a very sweet,caring but Amnesiac house-husband.He is a story writer for a popular seriel which other housewives are fond of. His popular drama is 'BAPU KAHE KO BIYAHE VIDESH HAMKA JAB KI HAMRE HI DESH MEIN KAMI NAHI HAIN CHORON KI-EK BITIYA KI AARAJ'.
