Directed by the talented Amit Ravindernath Sharma, ‘Maidaan’ promises to be a cinematic masterpiece, weaving together the triumphs and tribulations of Syed Abdul Rahim’s journey with captivating visuals and a soul-stirring musical score by AR Rahman.
The production of ‘Maidaan’ faced its own share of challenges, from the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 lockdown to the devastation wrought by Cyclone Tauktae in 2021, which destroyed the film’s set. Despite these obstacles, the team persevered, driven by their passion to bring Rahim’s inspiring story to the silver screen.
As the anticipation reaches a fever pitch, ‘Maidaan’ is slated for release in theatres nationwide on April 10, 2024, promising audiences an unforgettable cinematic experience that celebrates the indomitable spirit of Team India.
