"#Maidaan is, without doubt, one of the finest sports-based films made in #India... Captivating second half, brilliant finale and an award-worthy act by #AjayDevgn are its biggest strengths... Fitting tribute to #TeamIndia and Coach #SARahim by Team #Maidaan... STRONGLY RECOMMENDED! #MaidaanReview," Adarsh tweeted.

Filmibeat critic Murtuza Iqbal called Maidaan the 'perfect tribute to the golden era of Indian football'. In his detailed review, he wrote, "When it comes to Maidaan, the movie's first half is a bit slow, and apart from the football matches, not many scenes in the first half keep us hooked to the screens. In fact, with a runtime of 3 hours, you would feel that the makers could have trimmed the movie a bit before the interval. However, from the interval block to the climax, Maidaan keeps you on the edge of the seat."
