Mardaani is tax-free in UP

Mardaani has been exempted from entertainment tax in Uttar Pradesh, an official said Tuesday. The decision was taken by Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav owing to the theme of the film which portrays the battle of a woman against sexual offenders and crimes against women.

The spokesman said the film depicted serious social evils like crimes and sexual offences against women and gave a positive message to society.
