Despite positive reviews and an extended four-day weekend including Wednesday previews, “Maidaan” didn’t reach expected box office heights. Urban areas saw better performance, but Friday (the second day of Eid) and the weekend should have seen higher numbers.
Wednesday previews and Thursday (Eid) brought in 7.25 crore, followed by 2.80 crore on Friday, 5.65 crore on Saturday, and 6.52 crore on Sunday, totaling ₹22.22 crore in India.
The film receives tremendous appreciation, with no major releases in the near future, which may help its sustained performance. The real test awaits with Monday’s performance.
Despite glowing word of mouth and an *extended* 4-day [+ Wed previews] weekend, #Maidaan collects a low total… Urban centres perform better, but biz should’ve multiplied / jumped on Fri [second day of #Eid] and of course, Sat – Sun.

Maidaan is based on the life of Syed Abdul Rahim, a pioneering football coach in India between 1952 and 1962. We have previously seen sports biopics perform well in India. Whether it was Ms Dhoni: The Untold Story, Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, Chak De! India or Dangal, these films attracted a lot of footfall at the ticket windows. But in the case of Ajay Devgn’s film, the pre-release buzz in itself was not upto the mark.

Despite the Eid holiday, the much-anticipated film “Maidaan” started with shockingly low numbers at the box office. The urban centers, expected to see a surge in numbers post-noon, witnessed dismal Day 1 business, far below expectations, with Wednesday previews and Thursday collections totaling ₹7.25 crores.
“Maidaan” has garnered glorious word of mouth, but it needs to translate into actual audience footfalls, especially over the weekend. A significant turnaround in numbers on Saturday and Sunday is crucial for its success. The upcoming days will determine the trajectory of its box office performance.

The final trailer of the upcoming Ajay Devgn-starrer sports-drama film ‘Maidaan’ was unveiled on Tuesday. The trailer showcases the grit and the unwavering spirit of the footballers coached by Ajay Devgn’s lead character of Syed Abdul Rahim.
The trailer begins with Priyamani, who plays Ajay’s better half, asking him when team India will win. Before Ajay answers her questions, the viewers are thrown into a football field amid a high-voltage game where the magic of legs reigns supreme.
The next sequences in the trailer build-up the story as they show Ajay’s character hand-picking footballers from the streets of India. He is looking for players who could play at any position for India.
However, this ruffles some feathers as members of the football authority start playing regional politics over Hyderabadi players being replaced by players from West Bengal. Ajay expresses his disappointment as he says in the trailer that he thought,...
