The Mardaani series takes this story in a different direction with Mardaani 3, setting Inspector Shivani Roy on an investigation that focuses not only on personal revenge and bare-knuckle strength but also on organized crime, morals, and the endurance of an investigator. The third part of this series is more of an investigative story than any of the previous versions, having shifted from a storyline centred on revenge to incorporate aspects of criminal exploitation and examine the long-term effects of justice work on all involved.
The Mardaani series shapes the future of law enforcement by implementing intelligent/controlled methods of policing, restraining emotions, and highlighting the cost of persevering through an unaccommodating system. The increasing number of layers to the criminal investigation as a result of changing the focus from that of just one individual seeking revenge to examining the entire morale and accountability aspect has helped change Mardaani 3 style and tone from a stereotypical action-adventure to a mature, story developed through ethics, rather than pure emotion-driven events.
