Sports films seem to have caught the fancy of several Bollywood filmmakers in a big way. In 2020, there is going to be an avalanche of such outings at the box-office. The first sports movie of the year is Kangana Ranaut’s Panga, slated to arrive in cinemas on 24th January. Panga will be followed by Ranveer Singh’s ’83, Farhan Akhtar’s Toofan, Shahid Kapoor’s Jersey and Ajay Devgn’s Maidaan, to name a few.
The latest we hear that actress-turned-producer Chitrangada Singh, who was last seen in Emmay Entertainment’s Baazaar (2018), is planning to roll out a sequel to her 2018 production, Soorma. Starring Diljit Dosanjh and Taapsee Pannu in lead roles, Soorma was a biographical drama based on the life of hockey player Sandeep Singh. Though the movie was not a huge money spinner upon its release, it did recover its cost and yielded some profit as well.
Soorma will now be getting a sequel and it will be bankrolled once again by Chitrangada Singh. A source close to her informs a popular publication that Soorma 2 will be ready to hit the shooting floor soon.
“Chitrangada has always been drawn to strong scripts and ‘Soorma 2’ is no different. She is now working in a very focused way on locking in the rest of the details around the film, and it should be ready to go on the floor very soon,” divulges the source.
Just like Soorma, its sequel will also be based on a real-life hero cantering on his inspirational story. More details are expected to arrive soon.
Perry's onstage quip about "Englishmen" felt like a deliberate signal.
Those yacht photos are, frankly, undeniable.
It started with a Montreal dinner most people missed.
Both are out of long-term relationships.
Well, she’s as good as confirmed it, hasn’t she? Katy Perry just tossed a verbal grenade into her London concert, and the pieces all point to Justin Trudeau. That line about Englishmen? You do not say that by accident. It lands just days after those, let's face it, pretty steamy pictures of them surfaced on her boat. This Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau thing is suddenly feeling very real, shifting from rumours to a full-blown celebrity romance.

So what did she actually say?
Mid-show at the O2, looking out at the crowd, she hits them with this: "London, England, you’re like this on a Monday night?... No wonder I fall for Englishmen all the time."
Pause.
Then came the kicker: "...but not anymore." The place erupts. It was too specific, too perfectly timed. And then, almost as if scripted, some fan proposes to her. Her comeback was: "I wish you’d asked me 48 hours ago." What is that, if not a nod to a new, serious someone?
Let’s talk about the yacht. The Daily Mail got those shots and, while grainy, the story they tell is crystal clear. The photos were taken off the coast of Santa Barbara, on her 78-foot Caravelle. He is pulling her in, kissing her cheek. His hand was on her backside in another frame. This follows that low-key Montreal dinner in July that almost flew under the radar.

Where does this leave everyone?
Right, let us look at the context. Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom only finalised their split recently, with the co-parenting news coming out in July. Justin Trudeau’s marriage to Sophie Grégoire also ended last year. Both are prominent figures with busy lives who have only just become single. Sources are already saying he has been "persistent," flying to see her on tour breaks. It has the feel of something that is accelerating fast. And Perry, with that London comment, seems ready to let it.
