The film is a prequel to the mega-successful Amazon Prime Video web series, and would see the return of Divyenndu’s Munna and Bablu Pandit, now played by Jitendra Kumar.
As soon as the teaser was released, social media users flocked to various platforms to share their reactions. While many praised the glimpse and expressed excitement about seeing the Mirzapur universe on the big screen, several fans said they missed Vikrant Massey’s Bablu Pandit.
Others wondered how the film would secure a censor certificate, given that the web series was known for its graphic violence, gore and intimate scenes.
One wrote, “why vikrant massey havent returned? Is jitendra kumar the new bablu bhaiya”, with another writing, “Munna Tripathi entering the Mirzapur world again whistling…Welcome back, Munna Bhaiya😭😭 this already looks so good, hope cbfc doesn’t cut anything even after giving the A certificate.”
Another social media user shared, “Mirzapur 🔥🔥is On . Looks great visually, every character, surprised by Jitendra kumar and Ravi Kishan… Looks like a straight hit if the CBFC doesn’t f**ks up.
One wrote, “Without @vikrantmassey it’s incomplete.” One mentioned, “It’ll be censored heavily in theatres”.
About Mirzapur movie teaser
The teaser highlights that the film will tell an origin story set in 2018, before and alongside the events of season one, which means that Munna, who died at the end of season 2, is still alive here. It also shows how Kaleen Bhaiya (Pankaj Tripathi) is worried that his son Munna is not the ideal heir to his throne. Meanwhile, the Pandit brothers – Ali Fazal and Jitendra – are on their own path to dismantle the empire of Munna and set themselves up as the kings of Mirzapur.
