Mirzapur Season 3 Teaser Unveiled
The teaser is a collage of several moments from the upcoming season, indicating that fans can expect a return to the familiar, blood-soaked territory of the franchise. A voiceover lays the groundwork for what lies ahead, using the metaphor of the many animals in the ‘battle of the jungle’. It’s not just the lion who is a contender, but also the wild cats, cheetahs, foxes, hyenas, and crocodiles. This all matters because, at the end of the day, it is a question of the survival of the jungle itself.
The teaser shows glimpses of various characters in the show, played by Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, Shweta Tripathi Sharma, Rasika Dugal, and Sheeba Chaddha.
Reacting to the teaser, one fan wrote: “GAME OVER! OR HAS IT JUST BEGUN!!!” Another fan commented, “Where is Munna Bhaiya? Hope he returns.” A comment read, “Cannot wait!” “Finally a release date! Now we are talking,” read another comment.
For those wondering, Divyendu responded to fan theories about Munna Bhaiya’s return in a Humans of Bombay episode earlier this year. He said, “I am not part of season 3, guys. I know it’s a heartbreak… I love those conspiracy theories, they were legit. But on Humans of Bombay, I shall declare that I am not part of Mirzapur Season 3.”
Mirzapur quickly became a sensation following its release in 2018. Created by Karan Anshuman for Amazon Prime Video, this crime action-thriller series was co-written by Anshuman, Puneet Krishna, and Vineet Krishna. It is produced by Excel Entertainment, with Farhan Akhtar, Ritesh Sidhwani, and Kassim Jagmagia serving as executive producers.
The Throne Awaits: Mirzapur Season 3 Raises the Stakes
The highly acclaimed franchise has drawn audiences into a gripping saga of power, revenge, ambition, politics, betrayals, deceit, and complex family dynamics. With Season 3, the stakes are significantly higher and the scope has expanded. However, the rules remain unchanged as all eyes are on the coveted throne in the fictional world of Mirzapur. Trust is a luxury no one can afford, as the big question looms: will the throne, or Gaddi, of Mirzapur be earned or seized in a fierce battle for power and dominance?
“With its authenticity, well-etched out characters, relentless pace and nuanced storyline, Mirzapur has truly captured the hearts of viewers worldwide, resonating deeply with fans who eagerly await its next season. The Mirzapur characters have become a part of popular culture,” says Nikhil Madhok, head of Hindi originals, Prime Video India. “At Prime Video, we are excited to treat the fans, who have made this franchise so iconic and popular, with a fresh new season. In collaboration with our long-standing partners, Excel Entertainment, we are thrilled to bring a new chapter in the Mirzapur saga that promises immersive entertainment replete with shocking twists and turns,” he added.
Ritesh Sidhwani, Producer, Excel Entertainment says, “The first two seasons of Mirzapur received phenomenal response and love from our fans, both in India and around the world which has been truly heartening and humbling. This overwhelming support motivates us to keep pushing our boundaries and delivering exceptional content. Our collaboration with Prime Video is a testament to this success, and we are committed to continuing delivering compelling stories that strike a chord with audiences. We can’t wait for viewers to dive back into the quintessential world of Mirzapur and experience the thrilling ride that awaits them in Season 3.”
