Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year

Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year is a 2009 Indian Hindi-language comedy-drama film directed by Shimit Amin, written by Jaideep Sahni, and produced by Aditya Chopra under the Yash Raj Films banner. The film reunites the creative team behind Chak De! India (2007). It stars Ranbir Kapoor in the title role of Harpreet S. Bedi, a newly graduated salesman navigating the ethical challenges of the corporate world. The cast also includes D. Santosh, Gauahar Khan, and Naveen Kaushik, with supporting performances by Prem Chopra, Manish Chaudhari, and debutante Shazahn Padamsee.

The narrative follows Harpreet, an honest and idealistic commerce graduate, who enters the competitive world of sales and forms his own parallel company after facing disillusionment at his workplace. The film explores themes of integrity, entrepreneurship, and resistance within rigid corporate hierarchies.

Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year was released theatrically on 11 December 2009. Although it performed modestly at the box office, grossing ₹33.65 crore worldwide, it received mixed-to-positive reviews from critics. Kapoor's performance, along with the film’s concept and writing, were widely praised, while the screenplay and pacing drew some criticism.

At the 55th Filmfare Awards, the film received three nominations, including Best Story and Best Dialogue (both for Sahni), and won Best Actor (Critics) for Kapoor. In conjunction with the release, ASTPL launched a mobile video game adaptation based on the film.
