Diljit Dosanjh starrer and Shaad Ali directorial Soorma hit the cinemas on July 12 2018. The film is the biopic of Hockey legend Sandeep Singh and talks about a comeback which is probably among the greatest in the history of Indian sports.

It's more than a month since the film was released and it still continues to inspire people. Soorma recently worked as a source of motivation for the soldiers at the Paraplegic Rehabilitation Center in Pune.

A special screening of the film was held for the soldiers who got wounded in the battle and got paralyzed.

Director Shaad Ali himself went to the Paraplegic Rehabilitation Center in Pune and had a small chat session with them.

Talking about his experience, Shaad said-

"It's heartening to see everyone come out today like this. They share the real heroes of our country. Be it sportsperson or an officer from the armed forces. They commit themselves to the country and the flag. We've tried our best to tell the story on screen."

Talking about how it felt like watching the film with soldiers, he said-

"To be able to see with these heroes the real 'Soormas' or brave warriors of our country is an experience which goes beyond making the film. I'm just watching it like a layman right now and not even thinking about how I've made the film"

Soorma was received pretty well at the Box Office upon its release. Also starring Angad Bedi and Taapsee Pannu in important roles, the film received a thumbs up from both public and critics.
