Rani Mukerji, one of the greatest actors in Indian cinematic history, is the only female lead to have a standalone hit franchise to her credit with Mardaani!

Her wildly popular Mardaani franchise, in which Rani plays police officer Shivani Shivaji Roy, has garnered her praise and affection from all quarters. On Mardaani’s tenth anniversary, Rani is appreciative of all the support and praise she has gotten.

“I’m proud of my Mardaani franchise. This franchise never stops providing. It humbles me to experience the love, admiration, and respect I have received from Mardaani” said the actress.

Rani discusses her affection for her role in Mardaani and the reasons why Shivani Shivaji Roy, the adventurous police officer, has captured the imagination of people all over the world.

Shivani Shivaji Roy is her all-time favorite character in cinema. She is a powerful, defiant force of nature that will always stand up for what is right. She is a person who challenges gender stereotypes in the film industry and exemplifies how a woman can take the lead in a field that is dominated by men.

The internet went crazy when YRF teased the crowd about the upcoming franchise film.

Rani can’t wait to play the part and put on the police outfit once more. “I’m excited to bring back Shivani Shivaji Roy on the big screen soon. It has been a while since I honored the female police officers in our nation by donning the police uniform. Every single (female police officer) works tirelessly to protect our families, and I have always loved to honor these courageous women. When Shivani returns, I hope you will adore her just as much as you have for the past ten years” added Rani.

We wish her all the best for the upcoming film.
