A football of radius $R$ is kept on a hole of radius $r (r < R)$ made on a plank kept horizontally. One end of the plank is now lifted so that it gets tilted making an angle $\theta$ from the horizontal as shown in the figure below. The maximum value of $\theta$ so that the football does not start rolling down the plank satisfies (figure is schematic and not drawn to scale) -
