Rani Mukerji starrer Mardaani 2‘s release date was announced on Saturday. Makers, Yash Raj Films shared the news on their official Instagram handle.
“Mardaani 2 starring Rani Mukerji as Shivani Shivaji Roy releasing in theaters near you on December 13, 2019,” read the caption on YRF’s post which had Rani’s photograph as a cop from the film.
After Rani’s successful outing with Hichki last year, fans are eagerly awaiting the megastar’s return with the sequel of the hit film, Mardaani.
Mardaani 2 will have a new antagonist as opposed to Tahir Raj Bhasin who played the villain in Mardaani.
Unlike its first part, which was directed by Pradeep Sarkar, Mardaani 2 will be directed by Gopi Puthran.
The film went on floors in the beginning of 2019.
Yash Raj Films had released a press statement earlier in the year in which Rani had called Mardaani 2‘s script ‘ extraordinary’.
“Mardaani is and will always be extremely close to my heart. Right since its release, everyone has asked me time and again when I would be doing Mardaani 2 and I’m sure this announcement will come as a pleasant surprise to them all. Gopi has written an extraordinary script that we all love and I can’t wait to start shooting this film soon,” she said.
