What is the story about?
Rani Mukerji's cop drama Mardaani that came out in 2014 soon bloomed into a franchise for Yash Raj Films. The second part came in 2019 and part three has come out in 2026. And as per the early estimates of its box-office collections, it has become the biggest opener of the franchise.
The first film minted Rs 3.44 crore on day one, the second Rs 3.75 crore on the second day, and Mardaani 3 has opened at Rs 3.80 crore. All eyes are now on the weekend business.
The narrative of the thriller foregoes levity in favour of stark visuals and a soundtrack that underscores the emotional weight of the case. The central mystery, that of almost 100 girls reported missing in 3 months, is revealed to be part of a chilling, well-organised criminal enterprise, forcing Shivani and her team into a relentless pursuit that tests both her resolve and resourcefulness.
Bollywood hails Rani Mukerji
Ranbir Kapoor is really happy to see the entire film industry of India come together to celebrate his favourite actor Rani Mukerji’s 30th year in cinema with Mardaani 3!
Rani was Kapoor’s co-star in his debut film Saawariya and was there for him when he needed someone the most. So, Ranbir roots for Rani to win with every film, every performance.
Ranbir says, “Rani is the co-star of my first film Sawaariya and she is the first person who told me that if I worked hard, I would go a long way. I will never forget that interaction because it gave me so much confidence when I needed it the most. I have seen her as a person closely, I have seen her work closely and have been bowled over by her grace, charm and brilliance.”
He adds, “It is really amazing to see the entire industry come forward to celebrate 30 years of her iconic legacy. I have always felt that Rani is one for the ages, one of the greatest ever actors in India and someone who has defined our industry through her work. Her choice of projects and roles have shaped how women are portrayed on the screen today.”
