A week afore the film’s premiere, actress Anushka Sharma shared the trailer on social media and penned a heartfelt note lauding Rani Mukerji.
Her message read, “Congratulations, Rani (sparkles emoji). I’ve always admired your work and the grace you bring to everything you do. So excited to see all that’s ahead for you (white heart emoji).”
“Mardaani 3″outlines the return of Rani Mukerji as the formidable police officer Shivani Shivaji Roy. It opens on a tense note, immediately drawing viewers into a case involving a child trafficking network responsible for the disappearance of several young girls.

As the story unfolds, the trailer highlights intense action sequences, emotional moments, and violent confrontations, all underscoring Shivani’s unwavering commitment to delivering justice.
Rani Mukerji reprises her celebrated role with renewed intensity, while Mallika Prasad appears as the main antagonist. Janaki Bodiwala, last seen in Shaitaan, also plays a significant part in the film.
Mardaani 3 written by Aayush Gupta with Abhiraj Minawala’s directorial is produced by Aditya Chopra under Yash Raj Films banner.

“dark, deadly, and brutal,” ensuring a gripping clash amid good and evil.
