The most anticipated documentary of the year, Diego Maradona has released in India on October 11, 2019. Diego Maradona is one of the most controversial players and believed as a god on and off the field. Further symbiosis emerged during the course of making the film, says Kapadia, when he learned that Maradona was a huge fan of Senna, both the man and, consequently, of Kapadia's 2010 movie.

"He said that he wanted to call his second child Ayrton, if it were a boy," Kapadia says. "There are photos of him going to Senna's grave and putting flowers on it. He was a big fan. And as we were researching this I realised that their two stories were running parallel."
