Mallika Prasad will be seen as 'Amma' in Mardaani 3. She is the antagonist in the movie and plays a horrific role opposite Rani Mukerji's 'Shivani Shivaji Roy'. The movie shows how younger girls are being vanished, prompting 'Shivani' to investigate the root cause. She discovers 'Amma,' the mastermind behind the missing case, which is not a racket or kidnapping but something even more horrific, as the lead fears.

Mallika Prasad plays a challenging role in the movie, and the trailer offers a glimpse of her character, which appears to be marked by intensity and depth amid the darkness of antagonism. Mallika, with several accolades, is sure to leave audiences in awe of her acting. Reacting to her playing the role of antagonist of the movie, Mallika penned:

"Love, take it as it comes... for who knows what tomorrow will bring... or take."

Rani, in an earlier interview with Pinkvilla, said Mardaani 3 has a thrilling plotline that will leave viewers with an adrenaline rush. She added that the movie will be very different from Mardaani 1 and Mardaani 2, and is based on real-life events as reported.
