Diljit-Taapsee starrer Soorma completes shoot before time

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.

Amazon’s ‘God of War’ reset proves Hollywood can’t get video game adaptations right

Highlights

  • Dave Bautista is taking over as Kratos after Ryan Hurst's injury forced Amazon to recast the role.
  • The series is effectively starting again, with none of the footage from the original production being used.
  • The major reset puts fresh pressure on Amazon's attempt to adapt one of gaming's most recognisable franchises.

Hollywood's relationship with video game adaptations has changed considerably in recent years. Shows such as The Last of Us and Fallout have demonstrated that games can translate successfully to television when their characters and worlds are treated with care. Amazon's God of War, however, has already encountered a production setback that makes its journey to the screen considerably more complicated.

Dave Bautista has closed his deal to play Kratos in the Prime Video series after Ryan Hurst, who was originally cast in the role, suffered a serious on-set injury. Hurst reportedly tore his bicep while performing a stunt in June, around four months into filming. Amazon MGM Studios and Sony Pictures Television subsequently decided to recast the central role.
