Mardaani 3 Opens Flat: Franchise Stagnation Woes

Mardaani 3, released on January 31, 2026, has garnered Rs. 4 crores on its opening day. This collection is remarkably similar to the Rs. 3.46 crores earned by the first Mardaani film back in 2014.

Despite a 12-year interval and the release of Mardaani 2 in 2019, which achieved a lifetime collection of Rs. 47.57 crores, Mardaani 3's opening day performance shows no significant growth. Ideally, the franchise's collections should have seen a substantial increase due to elapsed time and franchise establishment.
