East Indian field hockey player Sandeep Singh tries to make a comeback after a gunshot wound leaves him in a wheelchair.

At no point do you doubt that Singh will make it, nor does one feel awe at how he surmounts colossal physical and mental setbacks. The underdog story is perhaps too underplayed.

2.5/5

In choosing to show the personal side, the professional aspects get short shrift, and that's where the film doesn't score as well. Which is a pity because Dosanjh looks completely at home both off and on the field.

The mainstay of Soorma is, of course, Dosanjh in the titular role. He traverses the span of his character with sheer ease-a charmer as the shy, innocent, bumbling lover and mesmeric as the sportsman.

Soorma doesn't rouse as much as it should. It doesn't stop to feel its own heart beat. It tick-marks all the boxes and explores none. The goalposts are broadened - it drags home the same age-old clichés.

It's like the writer/director couldn't decide how he really felt about this man's life, hence, we the audience don't know how to feel either...but the performances end up being the saving grace, but, such potential, such waste.

Sandeep Singh's journey sure merits a biopic.

It's a good movie all the way around except it ended flat. Basically, a love story went bad.I wish the writer handled it little different towards the end. Powerful performance by the lead actor. I think the lead lady acting was a little week or maybe she was not the right choice for the role.

Great watch, loved the biopic, one of the few real-life sports story's which deserves a telling. Soorma tells us of the tale of one of the greats of Indian hockey, Sandeep Singh. His life journey has double the struggle and inspiration as compared to other sportsmen due to a mishap just when his career was taking off. This would have been a very different movie if it had a bigger budget, a more refined director and a more polished actor in the lead. For sure it would have been a more energizing & exciting watch, what I am not sure about is if it would still have has the emotional appeal, if it would justify Sandeep Singh's story. His story is of tragedy and struggle and Shaad Ali's direction and Diljit Dosanjh lead carries it in an appropriate manner without the Bollywood's sensationalizing effect. On that note, I for one would have enjoyed more of Vijay Raaz's portrayal as the Dabangg Bihari Coach. PS: Kind of sorry that I didn't even know of these events when it happened, part blame on myself, part blame on the media.
