About Mardaani 3

Mardaani 3 marks Rani Mukerji’s return as the fierce and uncompromising police officer Shivani Shivaji Roy, a role that has become one of the most defining performances of her career.

This time, Shivani is pitted against Amma, the formidable leader of a beggar mafia that exploits children with chilling efficiency. The film promises high-octane action, emotionally charged confrontations, and a deeper exploration of systemic crime and power.

Directed by Abhiraj Minawala and written by Aayush Gupta, Mardaani 3 is produced by Aditya Chopra under the Yash Raj Films banner. Alongside Rani Mukerji, the film stars Mallika Prasad as the main antagonist, with Janaki Bodiwala in a key role.
