Rani Mukerji honours the selfless service of Indias police officers ahead of Mardaani 3

Mumbai: Bollywood actress Rani Mukerji paid a heartfelt tribute to the nation's police officers on the occasion of Indian Police Day 2025. Rani, who is all geared up to reprise her role as a police officer in Mardaani 3, said it was important to acknowledge their contribution to society. 

She stated, "It is an honour for me to salute the Indian Police Force through my film franchise Mardaani, and I also look forward to every opportunity possible to salute the hard work of the police across the country by participating in as many of them. In every corner of our nation, there are cops protecting people, risking their lives, sacrificing their personal time to keep us safe. Words cannot do justice to the work that the police force of our country does to put our nation and the people first.”

Further, she added, "So, on the Indian Police Day, I salute the unwavering courage, relentless dedication, and selfless service of the Indian Police Force who protect and uphold justice for every citizen of India. We should never forget that behind the uniform, there is a human being who chose to do good, chose the path of selfless service and decided that the country comes first. We should never forget that they are also someone’s son, daughter, husband, wife, father, mother. I respect the force with all my heart, and I will make it a point to say this loudly to every Indian.”

She went on to remind the public how the lives of police officers were uncertain. "They leave their homes with no certainty of returning back. They confront dangerous crimes and criminals like a lion. I have been amazed to see their grit and courage, and their lives have inspired me to live fearlessly. We should not let their work and their sacrifices go unnoticed — they miss important moments of their lives to serve the nation. It cannot get more selfless than this, and I love honouring them through Mardaani. The Indian Police Force should be a reminder to us all what courage, devotion and unwavering patriotism means and how we can all learn from them and do our bit to stand up for the country," said the actress. 

Mardaani 3 will hit the big screen on  February 27, 2026.
