Summary
- Mardaani franchise originated from national rage after the Nirbhaya case.
- Women's safety issues remain largely unchanged since 2014.
- Mardaani 3 will focus on the critical issue of missing girls.
Rani Mukerji shared that the Mardaani franchise originated from the intense national outrage spurred by the 2014 Nirbhaya case. She explained that the film was a response to the collective grief and anger felt by the production team.
Mukerji highlighted that societal conversations about women's safety have seen little progress from 2014 to the present day in 2026. The issues of brutality and the challenges women face are still prevalent and, in some aspects, increasing.
