The much-awaited cop thriller, Mardaani 2, will see Rani Mukerji reprising the role of the fearless and committed Superintendent of Police, Shivani Shivaji Roy. The actress had delivered an outstanding performance in Mardaani, which was about the issue of child trafficking. Director Gopi Puthran has now revealed the issue she will be seen addressing in the sequel, “Rani as Shivani will be seen in a massive showdown with a 21-year-old villain who is an embodiment of pure evil. He is a dangerous criminal who targets women.”
Produced by Yash Raj Films, Mardaani 2 will release on December 13. Talking about her character, Rani Mukerji said, “The film will see a woman cop fighting a person to end crimes against women. As we all know, Navratri stands for the victory and battle of good over evil across India. Whether it is Goddess Durga’s victory over the demon Mahishasura or Lord Rama’s victory over Ravana, Navratri’s significance is key to this asset launch. So, we decided to start the journey of Mardaani 2 on this auspicious occasion.”
She further added, “For me, personally, I’m thrilled that the first key communication of Mardaani 2 is happening during Durga Puja that celebrates woman power in its truest and bravest form. Maa Durga took on the forces of evil and defeated it and Mardaani 2 will see a woman stand up against evil, against crimes committed against women and take a bold and brave stand. It’s a hugely pleasant coincidence that Durga Puja and YRF’s biggest release WAR has fallen at the same time for us to release our film’s asset now.” We are excited about this one, what about you?
