Mirzapur season 3 teaser

Mirzapur Season 3 is less than a month away from release!

The teaser is a collage of several moments from the upcoming season, and if that's anything to go by, fans can expect a return to the familiar, blood-soaked territory of the franchise. A voiceover lays the groundwork for what is in store, using the metaphor of the many animals in the ‘battle of the jungle’. It is not just the lion who is the contender, but also the wild cats, cheetahs, foxes, hyenas and crocodiles. It all matters because it is, at the end of the day, the question of the survival of the jungle itself.

More details

Reacting to the teaser, a fan wrote: “GAME OVER! OR HAS IT JUST BEGUN!!!” A second 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 fans wondering, Divyendu had responded to fan theories about Munna Bhaiya's return in a Humans of Bombay episode earlier this year. Divyendu replied, “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 instantly became a sensation among its release in 2018. It is a crime action-thriller show created for Amazon Prime Video, by Karan Anshuman. Karan co-wrote the series along with Puneet Krishna and Vineet Krishna. It is backed by Excel Entertainment and its Executive producers are Farhan Akhtar, Ritesh Sidhwani and Kassim Jagmagia.
