Soorma

Inspite of the weak direction , the movie is watchable all thanks to such lovely performances by DILJIT , TAPSEE , ANGAD , SATISH

Movie is fantastic. All the lead actors did their part well. Vijay Raj and Angad Bedi did noticable job. Story: 7/10 Direction: 7/10 Acting: 9/10 I wonder why this movie become unnoticed. In oir country, majority of the people have worst taste in movies. This film is in a straight line without any masala. What happens in the real life can be seen here.

#Soorma : Another biopic of this year is released this Friday. Based on the life of Former Captain of Indian Men's Hockey Team, Sandeep Singh, who is also known as Flicker Singh, this biographical movie is directed by Shaad Ali.

Film covers events of Sandeep's life that made him the star he is Today. After an accidental gunshot injured him in 2006, he was paralyzed. But once a warrior, always a warrior. So, he bounced back with a bang. And that's why this film is called Soorma, meaning warrior.

Diljit Dosanjh plays the titular role of Sandeep Singh Soorma. Taapasee Pannu is there as his love interest whose influence made him to join hockey in early days. The chemistry between these two is superb. I loved the love song featuring these two. It is indeed this year's best love song!

Diljit Paaji is as usual fantastic. Some character needs simplicity as well as complexity, and Diljit has given perfectly as per the requirement. Taapasee looks adorable and acts fine in her role. Satish Kaushik and his on screen brother are good to see. Kulbhushan Kharbanda is good. Special mention for Vijay Raaz. Whenever he comes on screen, public will laugh and enjoy! He is the true entertainer. Good job by him as Sandeep's coach.

Music by Shankar Ehsan Loy trio and lyrics by Gulzar sahab are again on the right track. After the soulful songs in Raazi, here they are giving us some hardcore Punjabi songs. Ishq Di Baajiyaa is one of the most pure and realistic songs one can ever make. Soorma Anthem is good, too. Pardesiya is very soulful. Singers of this song are contestants of Rising Stars where Diljit and Shankar appear as judges.

I was expecting a lot form Shaad Ali. Thus, I am disappointed with him. Ok Jaanu was a superb movie, but it's not up to that mark. Film lacks in some parts. It is slow paced, so the fault is in the screenplay. However, it can not be in the best biopics ever made. Though, it surely is an one time watch film to know the story of Sandeep Singh.

Film will manage to recover its cost of making. It is not a bad movie, just not a solid one. So, whoever will watch it, will give a thumps up for sure. You will surely love the equation between Diljit and Pannu. Get inspire from the legend!

Tone, Script & Story: Story revolves around hockey player Sandeep, how he enters national team, gets injured, even gets out and then makes a comeback, this time as a captain.

I liked the motivation that got him going for the first time (woman), it was terrible to see it going away for the next time, but this time it came in the name of country. This time the captain won on dual grounds. If it's shown how he is a captain, a little bit of team game could have been shown. I still liked the thin story line based on fastest drag-flicks.

Direction, Screenplay, Cinematography: What came to my mind was Sandeep Singh himself was a consultant. Despite that it appears 'unees bees' when it comes to reality.

Music: Music was average. Acting: I liked acting from all leads and some of them were a real treat.

Final Verdict: It's a good 'flick', not as highlighted by most of the critics! A biography you must not miss!

Great biopic with superb acting by all the actors. Good to see Satish Kaushik after a long time.
