Karan Johar On Maidan: Ajay Devgan’s most awaited film of the year 2024 ‘Maidan’ has been released in theatres. Ajay’s strong acting in the film is being praised a lot. Now Karan Johar has also become a fan of Ajay’s Maidan. Karan not only praised the film but also called it the best performance of Ajay Devgan’s career so far.
Karan Johar praised ‘Maidaan’ and Ajay Devgan
Karan Johar has praised Ajay and ‘Maidan’ a lot by sharing a post on his Instagram stories. Karan wrote, “Heard the most incredible things about Maidan!! “I can’t even wait to see what is universally being called the best performance of Ajay Devgan’s career!” Let us tell you that ‘Maidan’ has received positive reviews from critics and audience. This film has been released in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu and Kannada.
‘Maidan’ is the biopic of Syed Abdul Rahim
Let us tell you, ‘Maidan’ is the biopic of the country’s very popular football coach Syed Abdul Rahim. Under his leadership, the Indian football team won the Asian Games in 1951 and 1962. The Indian football team had players like Chunni Goswami, PK Banerjee, Balram, Franco and Arun Ghosh. Ajay has played the lead role of Syed Abdul Rahim in the film to tell the story of this unsung hero. Syed not only took Indian football to new heights but also made the country proud on the international stage.
What did Boney Kapoor say about ‘Maidan’?
Meanwhile, the film’s maker Boney Kapoor said, “I was surprised that many people do not know about an important person like Syed Abdul Rahim. He is an unsung hero whose achievements should be saluted. His team had heroes like Chunni Goswami, PK Banerjee, Balram, Franco and Arun Ghosh. An actor like Ajay Devgan was needed to play the character of Syed Abdul Rahim. With them, I can only hope that our film will inspire the youth to play football and India will soon bring the World Cup home.
‘Maidan’ slows down at box office
‘Maidan’ has undoubtedly received positive reviews from critics and many celebs, but this film is not able to attract the audience to the theatres. ‘Maidan’ is the lowest opening film on Eid. The condition of ‘Maidan’ has deteriorated within two days of its release. Talking about the film’s earnings, ‘Maidan’ had earned Rs 7.10 crore including pre-preview collection on the first day of its release. According to Sacknilk’s early trend report, the film has earned only Rs 2.75 crore on the second day. And its total collection of two days has become Rs 9.85 crore. That means ‘Maidan’ could not even cross the figure of Rs 10 crore in two days.
