Mardaani 3 review
The film finds its most vital element through Rani Mukerji, who serves as its central focus. The story depends on her screen presence, which she uses to create an impressive performance as Shivani. It can be said that Rani's portrayal of Shivani Shivaji Roy is the strongest in the franchise. Right from her entry scene, Rani Mukerji was able to grab the audience's attention. The graph of her character kept on growing throughout the film. Speaking of her action sequences, Rani, if not heroically so appealing, made it look very raw and organic. She portrays a strong-witted and fearless cop, fighting to save the minor victims from the hands of a ruthless villain, Amma.
