Mardaani 3 is almost here, and honestly, it’s hard not to get hyped. Rani Mukerji is back as Shivani Shivaji Roy, tough as ever, unwilling to back down, and the franchise is heading right to Netflix on March 27, 2026. The movie first hit theaters at the end of January, but now it’s coming home for everyone who missed it on the big screen.

So, what makes Mardaani 3 worth your time? First off, Abhiraj Minawala directs this one, and he doesn’t hold back. The story digs deep into the darkest corners of crime, think human trafficking, a ruthless beggar mafia, all the stuff that makes your skin crawl. Rani Mukerji steps back in as ACP Shivani, and she’s up against a villain called Amma (Mallika Prasad), who’s every bit as chilling as you’d hope. The film packs in 129 minutes of raw action, real emotion, and just enough sharp social commentary to stick with you. Critics gave it a mixed but mostly positive nod, especially for Mukerji’s performance. She’s the heart of it, no question.

If you want to catch up before the third film drops, both Mardaani and Mardaani 2 are already on Netflix and still making waves, they even hit India’s Top 10 again, thanks to the buzz around this new release. Fans have been lighting up with their excitement, cheering for a strong female lead and a story that actually matters.

Let’s talk numbers. Mardaani 3 had some stiff competition from huge titles like Border 2, but it held its own. It made Rs 45.75 crore net in India, with a global haul close to Rs 64.54 crore by the middle of February 2026. The opening day pulled in Rs 4 crore, things ramped up to Rs 7.25 crore by day three, and the film kept a steady pace into its second week. Overseas, it’s closing in on $1.5 million, not bad at all. So, while it outperformed the original Mardaani, it just missed beating Mardaani 2, landing as another solid hit in Rani Mukerji’s impressive run.

And why should you stream it on Netflix? Well, Netflix keeps doubling down on big Hindi releases, and this one’s right at the top of the list. Starting midnight on March 27, anyone, anywhere can dive in. If you’re into fast-paced thrillers, tense standoffs, and a lead who actually makes you root for her, you’ll want this on your watchlist. New to the franchise? Old fan? Doesn’t matter, Mardaani 3 delivers.

Set your reminder, clear your schedule, and get ready to see this Bollywood’s cop saga. Rani Mukerji’s back, and she’s not messing around.
