Vishal said, “Mardaani will always be very special to me, and so will Rani ma’am. Working with her has been one of the most important learning experiences of my life.”
“She leads by example with honesty, strength, and so much grace. Reuniting with her at the screening brought back so many memories, and I couldn’t be more grateful to have been a part of this journey.”
The actor added: “Mardaani is Rani Mukerji ma’am and Rani Mukharjee ma’am is Mardaani. No one can perform Shivani Shivaji Roy better then Rani ma’am. Saw Mardaani 3 and she again proved that she is Rani Mukharjee for a reason. I want to come back as a villain in Mardaani 4”.
A special screening was held, and it was a star-studded affair. It saw the presence of several prominent names from the industry, including legendary actor Rakha, Huma Qureshi, Ahaan Pandey, Aneet Padda, and Keerthy Suresh.
