Mardaani 3 Movie Review And Release Live UpdatesOur in-house critic gave the film a solid 3 out of 5 rating. An excerpt from the review read, "Rani knows the world of
Mardaani more than anyone in the industry. She transforms into Shivani effortlessly and holds the film together when the script falls apart. Mallika deserves her own spin-off as Amma needs to be studied well. Prajesh Kashyap is an actor to look out for. Janki Bodiwala has her moments and she does well.
Mardaani 3 is a mirror to the real horrors of society. Chilling more than most horror films, it is an important watch."Check out the complete review
