Mardaani 3 has officially completed its theatrical run after nearly 50 days in cinemas, closing its box office journey on a mixed note. While the film managed to become the highest-grossing installment in the Mardaani franchise, it ultimately failed to meet expectations at the ticket window. Starring Rani Mukerji and directed by Abhiraj Minawala, the action thriller ended up as a losing affair despite a decent overall performance.
