Overview
- Reports from multiple outlets say the official trailer will be launched on August 11 at a grand event featuring the film’s cast.
- The movie is billed as an origin story set in 2018 that takes place before and alongside the first season, so it shows characters at an earlier point in the franchise timeline.
- Principal cast members from the series return and the teaser revealed notable new casting choices, including Jitendra Kumar in the role of Bablu Pandit and the addition of Ravi Kishan.
- Production is a collaboration between Amazon MGM Studios and Excel Entertainment, directed by Gurmmeet Singh with a screenplay by Puneet Krishna and producers Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar.
- After the trailer launch, the makers plan an expanded promotional campaign, including a multi-city road trip, as they move the Mirzapur franchise from streaming to a nationwide theatrical push.
