Maidaan, the sports biopic, featuring Ajay Devgn, Priyamani, and Gajraj Rao, is now available for streaming on Prime Video from June 5. After its theatrical release on April 10, ‘Maidaan’ has made its digital debut after two months. The film is produced by Zee Studios, Boney Kapoor, Arunava Joy Sengupta, and Akash Chawla, and directed by national-award-winning filmmaker Amit Sharma.
Prime Video’s official X account announced the OTT release, captioning it as “Groundbreaking story of India’s finest hour in football.” Critics praised the movie, although it struggled to attract audiences to theatres. With the OTT release, viewers have another opportunity to watch the film. Maidaan tells the story of Indian football coach Syed Abdul Rahim and the golden era of Indian football from 1952 to 1962 under his leadership. This period was significant for Indian football, aiming to establish an identity for India and gain global recognition.
