Yash Raj Films’ Mardaani is the biggest solo female-led franchise in Hindi cinema that has garnered love and acclaim over 10 years now!
Today, on the release anniversary of Mardaani 2, YRF officially announced that it is making Mardaani 3 with Rani Mukerji again essaying the character of a daredevil cop Shivani Shivaji Roy. One of Indian cinema’s finest actors ever, Rani Mukerji, is the only actress to have a blockbuster franchise as a solo lead to her credit with Mardaani!
Rani says, “I’m thrilled to announce that we are starting the shooting of Mardaani 3 in April 2025″
Rani reveals Mardaani 3 will take the adrenaline rush several notches higher than the previous films!
She says, “When we set out to make Mardaani 3, we were hoping that we find a script that would take the experience of watching a Mardaani franchise film higher. I am really excited about what we have at hand and I’m only hoping that the audience too feels the same after watching Mardaani 3 in theatres!”
Rani adds, “Mardaani is an extremely loved franchise and we have a certain responsibility to deliver to the expectation that people have. We will do our best to live up to this. Mardaani 3 is dark, deadly and brutal.”
Aayush Gupta of The Railway Men fame has written the script of Mardaani 3 and it will be directed by Abhiraj Minawala, who has also been groomed by YRF. His potential was spotted by Aditya Chopra who first empowered him to assist on films like Band Baaja Baarat, Gunday, Sultan, Jab Tak Hai Jaan, Tiger 3 to name a few. Abhiraj is currently the Associate Director of War 2.
