Mardaani 3 has earned a total of Rs. 22.25 crore in India in its first five days, with Rs. 2.25 crore on Day 4 and Rs. 2.50 crore on Day 5, showing a weak weekday hold.
Rani Mukerji’s crime drama Mardaani 3 continued its weekday run with a moderate performance on Day 5 (Tuesday), bringing its India net total to Rs. 22.25 crore within the first five days of release, according to early trade estimates. The film, which opened strongly over the weekend, saw a significant drop in collections through the start of the working week.
Mardaani 3 has weak box office hold, but collects more on Tuesday than Monday
_Mardaani 3_ earned Rs. 2.25 crore on its first Monday (Day 4), reflecting a considerable decline from its weekend figures. However, on Day 5, the film added Rs. 2.50 crore, as per early estimates provided by Sacnilk, helping its domestic tally reach Rs. 22.25 crore five days after release.
The film’s early days saw a typical weekend boost, but the sharp drop through Monday and Tuesday indicates a modest audience hold during the working week. Such trends are common for genre films when larger event releases or holiday windows are absent. Here’s the day-wise box office breakdown:
Day 1 [1st Friday]- Rs. 4 Cr
Day 2 [1st Saturday]- Rs. 6.25 Cr
Day 3 [1st Sunday]- Rs. 7.25 Cr
Day 4 [1st Monday]- Rs. 2.25 Cr
Day 5 [1st Tuesday]- Rs. 2.50 Cr
Total- Rs. 22.25 Cr
Competition with Border 2
Mardaani 3 stars Rani Mukerji as fearless cop Shivani Shivaji Roy, reprising the role that has become a signature character in the franchise. Despite strong performances and a gripping storyline, the film’s weekday response has been affected by competition from major releases and the natural mid-week decline.
Trade analysts note that while the Mardaani franchise has historically delivered solid returns, this instalment’s weekday dip may limit its short-term prospects unless word of mouth builds momentum in the coming days.
It is still heartening to see that the film collected more on Tuesday than on Monday. When compared to the big release of the year so far, Border 2,
_Mardaani 3_ made less than half of what the Sunny Deol-starrer made on its second Tuesday.
