‘Mardaani 3’ has grossed over Rs. 10 crore in India in two days, holding steady at the box office even with competition from ‘Border 2’.
Rani Mukerji’s crime thriller Mardaani 3 has opened to a good box office response, grossing over Rs. 10 crore worldwide in its first two days, even as it faces stiff competition from Sunny Deol’s Border 2. The third instalment of the franchise has shown a steady upward trend since its release, signalling strong audience interest.
Early collections and weekend momentum
Industry tracker Sacnilk reported that Mardaani 3 earned Rs. 10 crore in India alone over its opening two-day weekend.
The film opened at Rs. 4 crore, and went on to collect Rs. 6 crore approx nett on Day 2, i.e., Saturday. It showed an upward trend on its first holiday since release. The film’s performance is considered encouraging, especially given the continued dominance of Border 2 at theatres, which has been drawing large crowds since its release.
Strong word of mouth driving footfalls
Positive word of mouth can be considered a key factor in Mardaani 3’s early box office growth. Audiences have responded well to Rani Mukerji’s reprise of her role as fearless cop Shivani Shivaji Roy, with many citing her intense performance and the film’s gripping narrative as reasons to watch it in cinemas.
Border 2 continues to attract viewers with its mass-appeal action and patriotic themes, but
_Mardaani 3_ has carved out its own space at the box office by catering to fans of taut crime dramas. With the second weekday ahead and new releases on the horizon, the film’s performance in the coming days will be crucial in determining its overall theatrical run.
