On the first day of Navratri, Yash Raj Films shared a powerful new poster for Mardaani 3, starring Rani Mukerji. The film brings back her popular role as tough cop Shivani Shivaji Roy. The poster features the chant “Aigiri Nandini,” which praises goddess Durga’s victory over evil. This hints at a fierce battle ahead in the movie, as Shivani takes on a dangerous case that risks her life.
Mardaani 3 is the latest in India’s only hit female-led action film series. The earlier films, Mardaani (2014) and Mardaani 2 (2019), were praised for showing real and disturbing crimes, urging people to face the truth about violence in society.
Directed by Abhiraj Minawala and produced by Aditya Chopra, this new chapter promises to be the darkest one yet. The film aims to offer a gripping, edge-of-the-seat experience when it hits theatres on February 27, 2026.
With Shivani once again fighting for justice, Mardaani 3 is expected to deliver a strong message about courage, truth, and standing up against evil—making it a timely release during the festival that celebrates strength and power.
