Soorma

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

Story

Soorma is the story based on the life of the former Indian Hockey team captain. He met with the accident after his first International match. He was the highest goal scorer in that tournament & he was the fastest drag flicker in the world so media has given him a name " Flicker Singh". This s the story of his come back after the accident that he met with & became the Indian team captain. He has won the Arjuna Award in 2010.

Screenplay & Direction

Screenplay was given by Suyash Trivedi, Shaad Ali & Shiva Ananth. In this type of biopic movie screenplay plays very important role, if it is best your biopic will be better.In the field of screenplay this movie gets the clapping for it. Although dialogues are not that much impactful, it creates magic that it needed. After "Saathiya" this film comes on the second place in the field of direction. In between no movie of Shaad Ali's creates the record on the box office as well as not critically acclaimed. Direction is not much impactful because direct the biopic is very tough job & he has taken the risk, he success in it a little-bit.

Cinematography & Editing

Cinematography not played much part in this film but it is so so. The toughest part in the movie based on real life story is editing & Farooq Hundekar has done the fantastic job story creates the aura around you & it does not slip anywhere. You will find the continuation in it.

Acting

All the actors has done their part very heartily but the main character that is played by actor-singer Diljit Dosanj & he has done magnificent job in the role of Sandeep Singh. Bikramjit Singh the elder brother's of Sandeep Singh played by Angad Bedi. Chemistry between these two guys is awesome. Chemistry between Seema Kaushal who has played Diljit's mother's character & Diljit him self is also impactful. Tapsee Pannu has played the role of Harpreet Kaur who is also an Indian Hockey player. She has done her part good but her role has not portrayed very well. Satish Kaushik has played her role very sincerely.

Music

Music of the Shankar Ehsaan Loy is soulful two songs has left the impression on the mind. One is soorma title song & other is ishq di baajiyaan. Lyrics of gulzaar is also meaningful. Background score is also good. Theme of the song "Ishq Di Baajiyan" plays in whole movie in background & it sounds very well.

Overall Verdict

If you are a Diljit Dosanj fan this movie is must for you.Overall impression of the movie is not as good as other biopic like Bhaag milkha bhaag but it is one time watch also for the inspiration to the nation & the courage of the sport person.

You must not miss watching this movie. Absolutely wonderful and inspiring. Diljit as Sandeep is such a heart melting character. So much innocence and goodness and what determination and strength to have made such a come back. To the real life Sandeep paaji -" hats off to you sardarji. We love you "👏👏

Soorma is based on the real life incidents of Indian Hockey player and ex-captain Sandeep Singh aka Flicker Singh. The movie is fairly enjoyable but it's not as good as was promised by the trailer. It'll entertain you thoroughly during the first half, but, the second half, that includes the most critical part of the story, fails to make the impact that it should have. The script doesn't do justice to the struggle faced by the player in actual life. The actors have done full justification to their characters. Diljit Dosanjh, who is playing the protagonist, has done a great job. He has done full justice to what was demanded by the script. Taapsee Pannu, who is playing the love of the protagonist, did not had much to bring to the table, still, she has done a pretty good job. Angad Bedi, Vijay Raaz and the remaining cast are also fair to their roles.

In short, Soorma is a movie that you can watch and enjoy. It'll surely inspire you but do not expect too much from it.

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