Ahead of the release of the third season of the fan-favorite series Mirzapur, director Gurmmeet Singh highlighted the show’s unique storytelling approach. “One unique aspect of Mirzapur is that its story isn’t based on any written book. The narrative grows organically. Punit Krishna, the series’ writer, created such deep characters from the beginning that we found the story within them,” Singh said.
Discussing their creative process, Singh added, “We didn’t have to look outside; we explored the story through these characters — what they wanted, what they needed, what their flaws were, and what could challenge them. This has always been our storytelling process. The credit goes to our writers who made the world of Mirzapur so exciting.”
Earlier this week, the makers released the trailer for the highly anticipated third season. The action-packed trailer features Guddu Pandit (played by Ali Fazal) striving to establish his dominance over Purvanchal. Actors Shweta Tripathi Sharma, Rasika Dugal, and Vijay Varma also make notable appearances in the trailer. The climax of the trailer reveals actor Pankaj Tripathi emerging from the shadows, vowing to reclaim his empire.
The first season of the crime drama premiered in 2018, followed by the second season in 2020. The new season will be available on Amazon Prime Video starting July 5.
