On the other hand, we have Maidaan starring Ajay Devgn, Priya Mani and Gajraj Rao. The movie is directed by Amit Sharma. Maidaan is not just a movie but a tribute to Syed Abdul Rahim who was an Indian football coach and manager of the India national team from 1950 until his death in 1963, and a former player. He is regarded as the architect of modern Indian football and his era is known as the golden era of Indian football history.
Both Maidaan and Bade Miyan Chote Miyan were supposed to be released on 10th April, the release dates got postponed and eventually they both released on 11th April. It seems the clash was inevitable. BMCM got a far better opening than Maidaan as the audience was more excited to watch the action comedy starring Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff.
