Interestingly, the film will face a big Bollywood clash with Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff's action thriller film Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. Helmed by Amit Ravindernath Sharma and co-produced by Boney Kapoor and Zee Studios, Maidaan is a sports drama dedicated to the golden years of Indian football. Ajay is essaying the role of the legendary coach Syed Abdul Rahim, widely known as the founding father of Indian football. The film also stars Priyamani, Gajraj Rao, and Bengali actor Rudranil Ghosh. Last year, the makers of Maidaan unveiled the film's teaser, which received massive responses from the audiences. Maidaan New Poster Out!

The teaser opens with dynamic shots of sportsmen playing football in the rain. What stands out about them is that they play the 'greatest game' barefoot. Ajay then makes a striking appearance in a grey coat, holding an umbrella while overlooking a match. The teaser concludes with Ajay's power-packed dialogue, "Aaj Maidaan mein utarna gyarah lekin dikhna ek (today when you step out on the field, you should be 11 in number but look like one)." In 2020, producer Boney Kapoor had to dismantle the film set due to the lockdown imposed to curb the novel coronavirus pandemic. In May 2021, the Maidaan set was destroyed by Cyclone Tauktae. The film is slated to be released on Eid 2024.
