In Mardaani 3, Rani Mukerji reprises her role as the fearless cop Shivani Shivaji Roy, who tirelessly fights for justice.
Rani previously described the film as “dark, deadly, and brutal,” instantly sparking curiosity among fans and netizens.
The first film, Mardaani (2014), was directed by Pradeep Sarkar, while the second installment, Mardaani 2 (2019), was directed by Gopi Puthran.
