 Producer Ritesh Sidhwani issued a statement and spoke about the success of the second season of the show that led them to give a nod to the third one. Talking about the same, he said, “Across two gripping seasons, Mirzapur has become a global sensation and we couldn’t be happier associating with Amazon Prime Video to make this happen! The show’s massive fandom and the viewers’ magnitude of love towards the new season have made us truly humbled to come up with the third one.” 

Apart from this, not much information has been made public by the OTT platform and the production house regarding the third season of the series. However, the fans seem to be eagerly waiting for the third one as the second season ended abruptly with the killing of Munna Tripathi played by Divyendu. Meanwhile, the story of the second season revolves more around power, politics, and revenge at the center of it. On one hand, the fight between Munna and Guddu to take over Mirzapur intensifies, on the other hand, the narrative takes us to the power corridors where a nexus between politics and criminals prevails.
