'Soorma' is a biopic made on Sandeep Singh who is a hockey legend and the ex-Captain of the Indian National Hockey Team.

Sandeep, regarded as one of the world's most dangerous drag-flickers, has given many a golden moment to Indian hockey.

Sony Pictures and Chitrangada in collaboration are bringing his story on screen, for which Sandeep is overwhelmed and thanked them.

He has brought India pride by representing the country at 2012's Olympics London where he was the highest goal scorer in the qualifiers.

A fighter to the core, Sandeep did not give up and continued his hard work on the turf. Sandeep's story is so inspirational that a Bollywood biopic is being made on his life where his role is portrayed by actor and singer Diljit Dosanjh.

Sandeep is regarded as the most dangerous drag-flickers of all time with drag speeds of over 145 km/hr which led to his nickname, ‘Flicker Singh’.

The drag-flickers journey – of wins, losses, life, and death – will soon be seen on-screen in 'Soorma', a Shaad Ali directorial, starring Diljit Dosanjh and Taapsee Pannu.

'Soorma' is produced by Sony Pictures Networks Productions, Chitrangada Singh, and Deepak Singh.
