Overview

  • The makers released a roughly 2:22 teaser on Thursday that frames Mirzapur: The Movie as an origin/untold story set around 2018 and teases high‑octane action and larger locations.
  • Key franchise figures return for the film: Pankaj Tripathi as Kaleen Bhaiya, Ali Fazal as Guddu Pandit and Divyenndu (Munna) are shown alive in the 2018 timeline.
  • Jitendra Kumar appears as Bablu Pandit in place of Vikrant Massey, and Ravi Kishan joins the cast in a new gangster role, moves that have prompted fan discussion about continuity.
  • The film is presented by Amazon MGM Studios and Excel Entertainment, directed by Gurmeet/Gurmmeet Singh, written by Puneet Krishna, produced by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar, and is scheduled to open in Hindi and Telugu on 4 September 2026.
  • The marketing rollout — character posters on June 24 followed by the June 25 teaser — highlights an expanded scope from Purvanchal to Rajasthan and raises questions about how the movie will connect to future seasons and the series’ chronology.
