After a three-year hiatus, the much-anticipated third season of Mirzapur is finally here. Starring an ensemble cast that includes National Award winner Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, Vijay Varma, and Shweta Tripathi, the web series is out on Amazon Prime Video on July 5 at 12 a.m. Fans of the show have been eagerly awaiting its return.
A Look Back: The Journey of Mirzapur
Mirzapur first burst onto the scene in 2018, instantly becoming a sensation. The gritty tale of revenge and power struggles in the fictional city of Mirzapur captivated audiences, making characters like Kaleen Bhaiyya, played by Pankaj Tripathi, household names. The show’s unique blend of intense drama, violence, and complex characters set a new standard for Indian web series and spurred a wave of mafia-themed shows on various OTT platforms.
Season 3 of Mirzapur promises to deliver the same gripping narrative and high-stakes drama that fans have come to love. The new season will feature ten episodes, each running for over 45 minutes. As hinted in the trailer, the story picks up with Guddu (Ali Fazal) and Golu (Shweta Tripathi) asserting their dominance over Mirzapur after the death of Munna Tripathi and the mysterious disappearance of Kaleen Bhaiyya.

The trailer also teases the return of Kaleen Bhaiyya, adding another layer of intrigue to the storyline. Guddu and Golu, now reveling in their newfound power, must navigate the treacherous waters of their new reality, while Kaleen Bhaiyya mourns the loss of his son, Munna (Divyenndu).
Fans will be delighted to see all the major characters returning in Season 3. Alongside Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, and Shweta Tripathi, viewers can expect to see Rasika Dugal, Vijay Varma, Harshita Gaur, Priyanshu Painyuli, Rajesh Tailang, Isha Talwar, Anjum Sharma, and Sheeba Chadha reprising their roles. The dynamic cast and their compelling performances are sure to keep audiences glued to their screens.
In this season, the battle for supremacy extends beyond Mirzapur, encompassing the entire ‘Pradesh’. The conflict between ‘Pashchim’ and ‘Purvanchal’ raises the stakes higher than ever before. However, the series’ depiction of this power struggle has been met with mixed reactions. While the tension and drama remain, some critics feel that the “Who Will Be The New Bahubali” game might be losing its novelty.
Mirzapur Season 3 is directed by Gurmmeet Singh and Anand Iyer, who have once again brought their unique vision to the show. Their direction ensures that the essence of Mirzapur is retained while introducing fresh elements to keep the narrative engaging.
With Season 3, the creators aim to continue this legacy, delivering a story that is both thrilling and thought-provoking. Whether you’re a diehard fan or a newcomer to the series, the third season of Mirzapur promises to be a wild ride filled with twists, turns, and won’t disappoint you.
Get ready for another intense journey into the tales of Mirzapur, streaming exclusively on Amazon Prime Video from July 5. The wait is finally over.
