    'Soorma' isn't a befittingly jingoistic or feeble biographical film: instead it goes from the rousing, via evocative, to the soaring aspects of the filmmaking. While Diljeet Dosanjh is refreshing, Taapsee Paannu brings surprises in her leading lady. The excellent cast also does well.
    But the scriptwriting is the best thing about 'Soorma'. It never flickers, even when it doesn't show enough light to the circumstances. It is a film that mugs up all of it lazily towards the climax, but finally, you stay with the film, despite these contrivances.
