Many people within the industry also appreciated Rani Mukerji’s daredevil and fierce avatar in the movie.

Talking about taking up a role that was so raw, Rani Mukerji had told PTI, “I think the 33 percent reserved positions for women Police especially in Mumbai and Gujarat need to be filled up as soon as possible and I strongly appeal that more women come forward and fill these positions and work for a cause. My intention behind doing this film was to inspire women.”

More details on the third installment of Mardaani are awaited. Rani Mukerji’s last outing on the big screen was in Mrs Chatterjee v/s Norway released in 2023.
