Yash Raj Films’ Mardaani is the biggest solo female-led franchise in Hindi cinema that has garnered love and acclaim for over 10 years now. The blockbuster franchise has received unanimous love from people and has attained a cult status amongst cine-lovers. Also, the biggest and only female cop franchise of India, Mardaani is now in its third instalment and Mardaani 3 will see Rani Mukerji reprise the role of a daredevil cop, Shivani Shivaji Roy, who selflessly fights for justice.
Today, YRF (Yash Raj Films) announced the preponement of the release date of Mardaani 3 to January 30, 2026. The makers are pegging this film to be a bloody, violent clash between Shivani’s goodness vs sinister evil forces as she begins an extraordinary race against time hunt to rescue scores of missing girls of the country.
Rani Mukerji had earlier revealed that the edge-of-the-seat thriller is going to be ‘dark, deadly and brutal’ and it had immediately piqued curiosity amongst netizens, the fans of the star and the franchise.
Mardaani 3 is directed by Abhiraj Minawala and has been produced by Aditya Chopra. While Mardaani (first film) tackled the grim realities of human trafficking, Mardaani 2 explored the chilling mind of a psychotic serial rapist who dared to challenge the system. Mardaani 3 is delving into a dark, brutal reality of our society, continuing the franchise’s legacy of gripping, issue-based storytelling.
