Mirzapur The Movie: Explosive trailer reveals new timeline, Babloo recast
Mirzapur is a very popular Indian TV show about power, crime, and politics in a small town, which started in 2018 with more seasons in 2020 and 2024.
Now there is going to be a movie called Mirzapur The Movie, and its trailer came out on August 11.
The movie is set in a new timeline, so characters who died in the show are coming back.
Munna Bhaiyya and his loyal friend Compounder are back, along with a character named Babloo.
Babloo will be played by a new actor, Jeetendra Kumar, instead of Vikrant Massey.
New actors like Ravi Kishan are also joining the movie, and his character will fight Kaleen Bhaiyya to become the new boss.
The fight is for the 'gaddi', which means the seat of power.
Some fans were sad that the women of Mirzapur barely appeared in the trailer.
The movie will hit theatres on September 4.
