Amazon Prime Video’s Mirzapur Season 2 is by far the most awaited season of a series in the Indian content space. And without any delay, here’s the news you all have been waiting for – Mirzapur Season 2 will hit Amazon Prime Video on 23rd October!
Amazon Prime Video announced the release date of Mirzapur Season 2 this noon, after a sustained teaser campaign on social media. It was accompanied with a short teaser, and it’s quite obvious that Mirzapur Season 2 brims with more of the elements that made Mirzapur Season 1 such a rage. More importantly, it will fucus on the fightback of Guddu and Kaleen Bhaiya, stressing on the emotion of revenge.
The first season of Mirzapur released on Amazon Prime Video on 16th November 2018, and immediately took the world of OTT entertainment by storm. It became a runaway hit and audiences couldn’t have enough of it. Pankaj Tripathi’s Kaleen Bhaiya, Divyendu’s Munna, Ali Fazal’s Guddu, and all the other characters instantly found a place in the hearts of viewers.
Mirzapur Season 1 also triggered a line of lookalikes, all set in the backdrop of the Hindi heartland. Rustic crime dramas became the order of the day. But obviously, none could match up to the adulation received by Mirzapur.
Pretty soon, as time passed, viewers started demanding Mirzapur Season 2. The clamour grew louder six months into the release of Mirzapur Season 1. And one year after, the din demanding Mirzapur Season 2 was cacophonic. But there was no sign of Season 2. Then Coronavirus struck, pushing back the releases of all major shows and movies.
Now, almost two years after the release of Mirzapur Season 1, Amazon Prime Video is ready to release, on 23rd October.
Created by Karan Anshuman and Puneet Krishna, and produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani’s Excel Entertainment, Mirzapur season 2 stars Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, Divyendu Sharma, Shweta Tripathi, Rasika Dugal, Rajesh Tailang, Amit Sial, Shahnawaz Pradhan, Sheeba Chaddha, Harshita Gaur, and Kulbhushan Kharbanda. Vijay Varma joins Mirzapur Season 2, and will certainly be a worthy addition.
