Mumbai: Punjabi singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh, who made his Bollywood debut last year in Udta Punjab co-starring Shahid Kapoor, Alia Bhatt and Kareena Kapoor Khan, unveiled the poster of his upcoming film Soorma on Tuesday.

The dashing star is all set to play hockey player and one of India’s finest drag flickers – Sandeep Singh – in Soorma.

The 33-year-old shared the poster of the film with his fans. He tweeted: “A hockey stick and a bullet...One gave direction to his life while the other changed it forever! #SOORMA - The greatest comeback story ever! 29th June (sic).”

In the poster, we see Diljit completely in his character, but he presents two versions of Sandeep - one the aggressive player who is ready to take on the rival team and on the other hand, we see him seated in a wheelchair.

Yesterday, the makers had released a teaser poster, featuring Diljit and Sandeep.

Sandeep Singh is an ace hockey player, and an ex-captain of the Indian National Team. In 2006, Singh, an Arjuna Awardee was seriously injured after being hit by an accidental gunshot in a train, while on his way to join the national team, set to leave for the World Cup in Germany two days later.

He was almost paralysed and was on the wheel chair for two years. Singh not only recovered from that serious injury, but also established himself again in the team.

Written and directed by Shaad Ali, the biopic will also feature Taapsee Pannu, Chitrangada Singh and Angad Bedi.

After Udta Punjab, Diljit shared screen space with Anushka Sharma in her home production Phillauri which released in March this year.
