The makers of the hit Indian crime drama series “Mirzapur” are bringing the franchise to cinemas for the first time. Amazon MGM Studios and Excel Entertainment have announced a theatrical release for the upcoming film titled “Mirzapur The Film”.

The new film marks a significant expansion of the Mirzapur universe, which originally gained popularity through its digital release on a major streaming platform. Featuring well-known characters such as Kaleen Bhaiya and Guddu Bhaiya, the franchise has garnered a strong fan following across the country.

Release Date Confirmed by the Production Team

“Mirzapur The Film” is scheduled to release in theatres, with its release date now officially confirmed by the production houses. While the exact date has not yet been widely released, the announcement confirms that the film will arrive soon in Indian cinemas, marking a new chapter for the franchise beyond its web series legacy.

The film will continue the gritty narratives and intense character arcs that have defined the Mirzapur series, though further plot details are yet to be revealed. Fans of the series can expect familiar faces to return, including Pankaj Tripathi and Ali Fazal, who have played key roles in the original instalments.

Expansion of a Cult-Favourite Series

“Mirzapur” originally premiered as a web series and quickly became one of India’s most talked-about digital crime thrillers, known for its raw depiction of power struggles, politics, and organised crime in the fictional town of Mirzapur, Uttar Pradesh. The franchise is widely credited with shaping a new wave of Hindi-language digital storytelling.

The decision to transition the series to a theatrical format underlines its widespread appeal and enduring popularity. The film version is expected to retain the signature tone of the series while scaling up its production to match cinema expectations.

Collaboration Between Amazon MGM Studios and Excel Entertainment

Amazon MGM Studios is collaborating with Excel Entertainment for the project. Excel Entertainment, co-founded by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar, has previously produced all seasons of the Mirzapur series. The partnership continues with this cinematic venture, as the two production houses aim to offer a large-screen experience for franchise fans.

Further announcements regarding the star cast, trailer launch, and ticket details are expected to follow leading up to the release.

“Mirzapur The Film” follows a trend of popular digital shows receiving theatrical adaptations, highlighting the growing intersection between OTT success and mainstream cinema.
