Mirzapur teaser out now

The teaser elaborates that this is an origin story, set in 2018, before and alongside the events of season one. This means that Munna, who died at the end of season 2, is still alive here. 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. The teaser shows several familiar faces from the show, and introduces a new character played by Ravi Kishan, who gets his fair share or seetimaar moments.

“Witness the epic untold story this September. Get ready for bhaukaal on the big screen,” read the teaser’s official description on YouTube.

Fans react to Mirzapur teaser

The reactions to the teaser of the Mirzapur movie have largely been positive. Most fans hailed the return of Munna, one of the most loved characters from the show. “A character so goated that the makers had to make an entire film for his return, iykyk,” quipped one fan. Another added, “Finally Munna Bhaiya is back.”

Many others lamented that while Divyenndue had returned, Vikrant Massey did not. The actor played Bablu Pandit in Mirzapur season 1. His character was killed in the season finale. The film brings the character back, but it’s played by Jitendra now. “Vikrant Massey missed,” wrote one viewer. However, another showed faith in Jitendra’s interpretation of the character and added, “ONLY here for our Jeetu bhaiyaaa!!!”
