It's great to see new talent getting such big opportunities. Janki was brilliant in Shaitaan. Hoping Mardaani 3 lives up to the high standards set by the first two films. The subject sounds intense.

Respect to Rani Mukerji for leading this franchise. In an era of mindless action, films like these are important. But I hope the writing is strong. Sometimes the third part can feel repetitive. Fingers crossed!
