Real Kashmir Football Club review: An early scene sets the tone for this eight-episode SonyLIV series, when an unlikely bunch of footballers became a beacon of hope for the strife-torn Kashmir valley in 2016. Sohail (Ayyub), who has left his compromised journalistic job to help create a local football team, fetches up in a very Delhi sarkari outpost, and within a remarkably short while, convinces a babu to sign off on permissions required to set up a club.

Directors Mahesh Mathai and Rajesh Mapuskar keep the storytelling grounded, avoiding any melodramas. The show focusses on truth and authenticity rather than trying to be over-the-top. The writing (Simaab Hashmi, Danish Renzu, Umang Vyas) ensures every character has intention and history.
