Soorma

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 "👏👏

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.

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

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!

**Direction:** After huge disappoint from Kill Dil and Ok Jaanu, Shaad Ali (undefined) tried something new for him as he usually love to remake his Mentor Mani Ratnam (director) (undefined) 's Tamil Super-hits e.g. Sathiyaa, OK Jaanu (2017 movie) (undefined) . This biopic has intense struggle and love but i feel that Hockey was little less intense as we are expecting more intense Climax. **Performance:** Diljit (undefined) Dosanjh was exceptionally brilliant in the role of Sandeep Singh. He looks great as lover or fighter. Taapsee Pannu (undefined) looks pretty and good chemistry between her and Diljit. Angad Bedi showcase great bonding between brother. Vijay Raaz was good in touch in the role of Coach. Kulbhushan Kharbanda has small supporting role but it was worthy one. **Script:** Shaad Ali tried to give honest touch to the script however it lacks inclusion more about preparation and execution in Hockey match. Rehab portion can be little shorter and add more Chak De type thriller so that Indian audience got what they expect from Bollywood cinema. **Music and Lyrics:** Shankar- Ehsaan and Loy delivered another soulful music album after Raazi. Each and every song good for ears especially Diljit's Ishq Di Baajiyaan and Shankar's Soorma Anthem. Gulzar done brilliant job with lyrics once again. **Dialogues:** Dialogues were full of punches. When Vijay Raaz say" Hum Bihari hain, Jor se thook dege to chhed ho jayega" . After this dialogue whistle and claps all over the cinema hall. **Box-office:** As this movie open less than expected opening day collection. It was able to mint 3 crores on Friday. Word of mouth is good, not super so we can expect some jump on Saturday and Sunday. It seems that lifetime collection will be around 30-40 crores. **Last Words:** Nowadays Bollywood directors are serving new new dishes and it is audience's sole responsibility to taste all the dishes in the Cinema halls.
