The makers of the forthcoming biographical drama Soorma have wrapped up the shooting of the film before time. The last shooting schedule of the movie was being shot in Belgrade, the capital city of Serbia.

Starring Diljit Dosanjh and Taapsee Pannu in pivotal roles, Soorma is based on the life of ex-captain of Indian Hockey Team, who made a resounding comeback in Hockey after being accidentally shot by a gunshot in a train, while on his way to join the team, set to leave for the 2006 World Cup in Germany two days later.


Actress Taapsee Pannu, who plays a player and the love interest of Dijit Dosanjh's character, took to Twitter to announce the completion of the movie. She wrote, "And that's a wrap! From blazing goals to crazy cold! It's packup for Team #Soorma .. See you in theatres on 29th June 2018! ".

Directed by Ok Jaanu fame Shaad Ali, Soorma is being bankrolled by Sony Pictures Networks Productions in collaboration with actress-turned-producer Chitrangda Singh and Deepak Singh.

The film is slated to release on 29th June and will clash with Ranbir Kapoor's Sanjay Dutt biopic.
