Mardaani 3 Twitter review: Is Rani Mukerji's cop movie worth watching? 6 tweets you must read before booking tickets

Rani Mukerji is back in uniform, and early audience reactions suggest that her return has made a strong impact. Mardaani 3 released in theatres on January 30 and marks Rani’s comeback as the fearless DCP Shivani Shivaji Roy IPS. As fans flocked to cinemas for the first-day-first-show, social media platforms were quick to fill up with reviews, opinions and verdicts on whether the third installment lives up to the franchise’s legacy.

Backed by Yash Raj Films and produced by Aditya Chopra, Mardaani 3 is among the studio’s first big releases of the year. The film is written by Aayush Gupta and directed by Abhiraj Minawala. It also holds special significance for Rani Mukerji, as it coincides with her 30 years in Bollywood, a milestone that fans have been celebrating alongside the release.

Netizens react to Mardaani 3

Several viewers took to X (formerly Twitter) to share their first impressions. One user called the film a full-on mass entertainer, praising Rani for dominating every frame. The viewer described her performance as show-stealing and rated the film four stars, confidently predicting blockbuster potential.




Another tweet focused on the interval portion of the film, highlighting the satisfaction of watching Rani’s character take on criminals with controlled aggression. The user appreciated how she balanced restraint with intensity, a quality that has defined the Mardaani series.


However, the same viewer felt that the film lacked the raw punch of the earlier installments, noting that the suspense before the interval felt predictable. The villain, played by Mallika Prasad, was described as decent but not chilling enough by the standards set in the previous films.


A more detailed review praised the film’s seriousness and relevance. According to the viewer, Mardaani 3 sticks firmly to its theme of crime and justice without unnecessary distractions. The user credited Rani Mukerji for carrying the film almost entirely on her shoulders, calling it one of her strongest performances in the franchise. The action sequences were described as raw and realistic, avoiding over-the-top treatment and adding to the film’s impact.



Some viewers pointed out that the first half takes its time to establish the story and characters. While this made the pacing feel slow in places, they felt it was necessary groundwork. Many agreed that the second half is where the film truly finds its rhythm. One tweet mentioned that the latter portion becomes far more gripping, with the tension rising steadily towards an emotional and powerful climax.

Another user summed up the film as a hard-hitting crime drama, rating it three out of five stars. The tweet highlighted Rani’s fearless screen presence, the grounded action, and the emotionally charged ending, calling the overall experience “paisa vasool.”
