The shooting of the Maidaan was underway when the COVID-19 pandemic hit the world, and the entire film industry came to a standstill with no shoots or events taking place.

Maidaan’s Producer Boney Kapoor had earlier revealed that a massive outdoor set covering a 16-acre plot around Mumbai has been built. But just as the shoot was getting underway, the pandemic hit the world. “The set has now been dismantled as rains are due to arrive in Mumbai. The rebuild will take at least two months, which will start in September at the earliest, so shooting can commence only in November,” the filmmaker had added. He had further informed that fortunately all the indoor and some outdoor, training portions of the film have already been shot in Lucknow and Kolkata.
Produced by Zee Studios, Boney Kapoor, Akash Chawla, and Arunava Joy Sengupta, Maidaan also features Priyamani, Gajraj Rao and popular Bengali actor Rudranil Ghosh.
