Ranbir Kapoor has expressed his admiration for the Indian film industry coming together to celebrate Rani Mukerji’s remarkable 30-year journey in cinema, coinciding with the buzz around her upcoming film Mardaani 3.
The actor, who shared screen space with Rani in his debut film Saawariya, described her as a constant source of encouragement during the early phase of his career. Ranbir said Rani’s support played an important role in building his confidence at a time when he needed guidance the most.
Speaking about their association, Ranbir recalled how Rani motivated him to stay focused and committed to his craft. He said that her belief in hard work left a lasting impact on him and shaped his approach towards acting. According to Ranbir, watching Rani closely both on and off screen has been an inspiring experience marked by her grace, professionalism and dedication.
He further praised the industry’s response to Rani’s milestone, calling it heartening to witness such widespread appreciation for her contribution to Indian cinema. Ranbir added that Rani stands among the finest performers the country has produced and credited her film choices for helping redefine strong female characters on screen.
Ranbir also highlighted Rani’s desire to entertain and connect with audiences through meaningful cinema. He thanked her for delivering memorable performances that have created lasting emotional connections with viewers. He said her body of work continues to influence actors and film lovers alike.
Meanwhile, Mardaani 3 has generated massive online attention and has quickly become one of the most discussed upcoming releases. The third instalment of the popular franchise once again focuses on socially relevant themes. This time, the story centres on the disturbing issue of young girls from economically weaker backgrounds being targeted in organised crimes.
Directed by Abhiraj Minawala and produced by Aditya Chopra, the film continues the franchise’s tradition of hard-hitting storytelling. While the first Mardaani highlighted human trafficking and Mardaani 2 explored the psychology of a serial offender, the latest chapter aims to expose another harsh reality of society.
Mardaani 3 is scheduled to release in theatres on 30 January 2026.
