Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn has given us relatable characters and performances right from his debut film Phool Aur Kaante. The talented actor seems to outdo himself with every new film he takes up. Producer Boney Kapoor has heaped praises for the De De Pyaar De actor for his upcoming film Maidaan. The actor will essay the role of former football coach Syed Abdul Rahim in the sports drama that showcases the golden era of Indian football. 

 

Speaking of Ajay’s performance in Maidaan Kapoor said, “I have seen 70 to 80 percent of the film and it held my attention. Mind you, I watched the film without the soul of it, which are the matches, as we shot them very recently. I feel, it’s going to be a landmark film in Ajay Devgn’s career. According to me, it’s his best performance till date and Amit Sharma too has excelled from Tevar to Badhaai Ho and now Maidaan.”

 

Boney further added, “The good thing about Maidaan is that today’s generation doesn’t know what Indian football has achieved over the years. In Melbourne Olympic, we lost at a semi final by self-goal. There are many such surprises in the screenplay. And our film won’t be just football, football, football – it has got a lot of emotions involving the players and families. So, there are a lot of elements in it.” Maidaan is directed by Amit Sharma and will hit cinema halls on 3rd June 2022. Apart from this film, Ajay will also be seen in Gangubai Kathiawadi, RRR and his debut directorial Runway 34.
