In a heartwarming ode to the indomitable spirit of Coach Syed Abdul Rahim and the illustrious football legends he nurtured, the Maidaan team recently descended upon Kolkata, stirring up a frenzy of excitement and nostalgia. As the countdown to the film's release intensifies, the city's fervor for football reaches new heights, echoing the resounding legacy of Rahim Saab.



Led by director Amit Sharma and producers Boney Kapoor and Arunava Joy Sengupta, alongside the charismatic presence of Bengali actor Rudranil, the Maidaan ensemble unveiled exclusive behind-the-scenes footage, captivating audiences with glimpses into the extraordinary journey of Rahim Saab and his proteges. From the bustling streets to the hallowed grounds, Kolkata reverberates with the echoes of Rahim Saab's vision, igniting a wave of anticipation for the cinematic masterpiece.



Rahim Saab's storied legacy, rooted in the vibrant tapestry of Kolkata's football culture, serves as the beating heart of Maidaan's narrative. It was here, amidst the fervent energy of the city, that Rahim Saab unearthed gems like PK Banerjee, Chuni Goswami, and Pradyut Barman, laying the cornerstone for India's football revolution. With each step taken on Kolkata's sacred soil, the Maidaan team pays homage not only to Rahim Saab's enduring impact but also to the city's integral role in shaping football history.

The tribute extended beyond cinematic realms, as the makers arranged a special screening for revered football stalwarts like Arun Ghosh, D.M.K Afzal, and the esteemed family members of Chuni Goswami, PK Banerjee, and more. Seeking their blessings before the film's much-anticipated release, the gesture exemplified the deep reverence and gratitude towards those who paved the path for Indian football's ascent.

The dynamic portrayal of Coach Syed Abdul Rahim by Ajay Devgn, Maidaan promises to be a poignant celebration of resilience, passion, and the triumph of the human spirit. With a stellar ensemble cast including Priyamani, Gajraj Rao, and Rudranil Ghosh, the stage is set for an unforgettable cinematic experience.

Screenplay and dialogues penned by Saiwyn Quadras and Ritesh Shah respectively, Maidaan's soul-stirring soundtrack, composed by AR Rahman and featuring lyrics by Manoj Muntashir Shukla, adds an extra layer of depth to the narrative.

As the film gears up for a worldwide theatrical release this Eid on April 10, 2024, audiences can brace themselves for a cinematic spectacle that transcends boundaries and captures the essence of football's timeless allure.
