' 22 YARDS is for sports persons - Surya Sinha

  Surya Sinha is well known motivational speaker. He has written many books on motivation too. He has been  invited almost all over the world to deliver speeches on motivation. For such internationally famed speaker very few people know that once he was associated with Bollywood too. In 1987 he joined Hindi film industry as financier and producer and he was here till 2000. The bad experiences of Bollywood forced him to  snap ties with film industry and he ventured into motivational speeches and book writing. 
 Now,Surya Sinha is returned to Bollywood and he is starting his new inning with the film ''22 Yards''. Sports reporter turned director Mitali Ghoshal has directed this film and it stars Barun Sobti, Panchhi Bora, Rajit Kapoor, Chaiti Ghoshal , Mrinal Mukherjee and Amartya Ray. From the name of the film it is evident that this film is on the backdrop of cricket but throwing light on the subject of the film Surya Sinha says,'' this film shows how much hard work one has to do to become successful player. We see the players holding shinning trophy and his smiling face but we don't know how much hard work he or she had to go thru. Even their families have to sacrifice many things to make him or her a sports person. How  a player has to become  dedicated person to scale new heights and once a player becomes successful how sponsoring corporate giants play with their emotion is also depicted in this film. In short, ''22 yards'' is for all sports persons''. 

This film is shot in Mumbai and Kolkata and Mecca of Indian cricket Eden Garden is also shown in this film. The first look of the film was released by ex captain Saurav Ganguli in Mumbai  and just seeing the promo he agreed to do the honors and this shows the quality volumes of the film.

  Now Surya Sinha has planned to spread his wings in Bollywood in a big way and plans are afoot to make more films. For his future projects, he says,'' soon i am going to announce  a big film. Taking a lesson from my past experiences in film industry now i will not commit those mistakes which i had committed earlier. I am not alone this time as few big international companies too are with me and with the company and support of right people i am sure this time my second inning in Bollywood will be glittering one. Though i have written many books but the writing part of my film will be handled by professional writers as writing a script is different game altogether. Yes, i can say that this film will have a message for viewers with entertainment elements. Film is a powerful medium and i am going to use this medium to spread social messages. Let me assure that my films will not be preachy  one but it will have motivational messages the way Chak De India, Sultan and Dangal had. I am also ready with motivational songs and these are recorded by Dilip Sen, Sanjay Behl and Nirup Sen. These songs will be released time to time. I can say that after listening to my speeches the way audience leave the auditorium with new hope and energy the same way audience will leave theaters with new energy after seeing my films  as now the right time has come in Bollywood to make meaningful films and i am re-entering in Bollywood at the right time'' he says confidently.
