The trailer is set to release on March 7 but ahead of it, the actor shared an intriguing video. Fans are loving it and eagerly waiting for the trailer. Well, the film is set to release this year Eid.
Taking to his Instagram handle, Ajay Devgn shared the video and wrote, “Aajao Maidaan mein! We’re ready to present the incredible true story of the golden era of Indian Football.” The video opens with kids playing football on the railway track. Suddenly their ball crossed the track and hit Ajay Devgn. He was about to kick it but they stopped him as the train was about to cross. But he hits the ball out of the park and his high-octane action kick is enough to sum up his talent.

Apart from Ajay Devgn, the film also stars Priyamani, Gajraj Rao, and many other young actors. The film will clash with Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff’s Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. The film is also set to release on Eid.
To note, Maidaan is based on football coach Syed Abdul Rahim, under whose leadership the Indian football team won the Asian Games in 1951 and 1962. The Indian football team had players like Chunni Goswami, PK Banerjee, Balaram, Franco, and Arun Ghosh.
Ajay would be essaying the role of Syed Abdul Rahim to tell the story of this unsung hero who was responsible for taking Indian football to new heights and winning accolades for the country.
Regarding the film, producer Boney Kapoor said, “I was amazed that not many are aware of someone as significant as Syed Abdul Rahim. He’s an unsung hero whose achievements must be saluted. His team had heroes like Chunni Goswami, PK Banerjee, Balaram, Franco, and Arun Ghosh. It takes someone like Ajay Devgn to play Syed Abdul Rahim. With him on board, I can just hope that our film inspires youngsters to play football and India soon to bring the World Cup home.” The film will be released in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, and Kannada.
On the other hand, Shaitaan also stars R Madhavan and Jyothika in the lead role. The trailer has impressed audience.
