About Mardaani 3
The story unfolds in Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh, where two young girls, Ruhani, the daughter of an Indian diplomat, and Jhimli, the daughter of a domestic worker, are abducted while playing together. Given the high-profile involvement of the diplomat’s child, NIA officer Shivani Shivaji Roy is brought in to investigate. As the probe deepens, she realises the case is far from isolated and is instead linked to a vast, well-organised criminal network responsible for the disappearance of 93 young girls aged between 8 and 9, mostly from underprivileged families, over the past three months.

While the first two films in the franchise, Mardaani (2014) and Mardaani 2 (2019), performed well at the box office, the third instalment is finding it difficult to post strong numbers. Made on a budget of Rs 60 crore, as per a report by Times of India, the film sees Rani Mukerji returning as the fierce cop Shivani Shivaji Roy, for which she has reportedly charged Rs 7 crore. Mallika Prasad essays the role of the primary antagonist, Amma, while Janki Bodiwala appears in a key role. Produced by Aditya Chopra and directed by Abhiraj Minawala, Mardaani 3 hit theatres on January 30, 2026.
