Mirzapur Season 3 teaser: Pankaj Tripathi’s Kaleen Bhaiya returns as a ‘ghayal sher’ to reclaim his territory, ‘sawa sher’ Ali Fazal awaits

In March, the makers introduced Mirzapur Season 3 in the presence of Ali Fazal, Pankaj Tripathi, and Shweta Tripathi. During the event, Ali shared some insights about the new season. He revealed that while new characters will be introduced, some familiar faces will exit the series. However, the latest season will maintain the essence of the original.

However, fans are still upset that Munna bhaiya will not be a part of the new season. Actor Divyendu, who played the fan favourite character had earlier confirmed that he would not be a part of Mirzapur Season 3. Divyendu had told Humans of Bombay, “I am not part of season 3 guys. I know it’s a heartbreak…I love those conspiracy theories, they were legit. But I shall declare that I am not part of Mirzapur Season 3.”

Many fans wrote with broken heart emoji, “Without Munna bhaiya, Mirzapur won’t be the same.” Many others also demanded his return, “Bring Munna bhaiya back.”
