Mardaani 3 Box Office Collection Day 1: Rani Mukerji is back as the tough cop Shivani Shivaji Roy. Mardaani 3 released in theaters today, but the opening day numbers tell a mixed story.
The Mardaani 3 box office collection day 1 is expected to land between ₹3 crore and ₹4 crore. By 5 PM today, the film had already collected ₹1.28 crore, which shows decent progress through the day.
The main problem? The film is competing with Border 2, which is still pulling massive crowds everywhere.

Where The Film Is Working
The Mardaani 3 box office collection day 1 shows strong performance in big cities:
- Chennai: 19% occupancy (best performance)
- Mumbai: 18.50%
- Delhi NCR: 14%
- Bengaluru: 7.50%
Morning shows started slow at just 9%, but afternoon shows jumped to almost 15%. That’s a good sign.
Instead of releasing the film everywhere with high ticket prices, YRF kept things smart. They released it in limited screens and kept ticket prices affordable. The plan is simple – let people talk about the film, and more will come over the weekend.
Reviews are mostly positive. Trade experts like Taran Adarsh are praising Rani’s powerful acting. Some say the second half could have been faster, but overall, people are loving her comeback.
