7 Kadam Review: Ronit Roy and Amit Sadh-starrer fails to make an impact

Ronit Roy and Amit Sadh bond over football and clash over ideologies in Eros Now's 7 Kadam. The series premiered today (March 24).

With 18 seconds left to the football game between Asansol 11 and Kolkata Bagan, Ravi (Amit Sadh) needs to score a penalty shootout. However, it is not an easy decision for him since this will also decide his baba's (Ronit Roy), the coach of the opposition team, fate and the future of their family. And that is how 7 Kadam begins, revealing its entire story in flashback. So, why the name 7 Kadam? Because the distance between the ball and the striker during the penalty shootout is 7 steps. 7 Kadam is a story about a father-son bond. In this sports drama, Ronit Roy and Amit Sadh play father and son, respectively, who share a passion for football but have different ideologies due to the generation gap. While the father and son are passionate about football, the mother (Rohini Banerjee) is dead against the game. Aurbindo Pal (Ronit) is an ex-football player whose dream to be the national champion remained unfulfilled after he broke his leg. He now wants his son to excel in the sports and trains him to be a champion of the game. Ravi, on the other hand, has seen his father struggle to make ends meet and decides to go against his father, as he doesn't want him or his family to suffer anymore.
