Pankaj Tripathi Opens Up About Mirzapur The Movie’s Journey From OTT To Big Screens: Landscape Is New, Scale Is Bigger · republicworld.com

Mirzapur: The Movie is a cinema version of a story people previously watched online.

Pankaj Tripathi, who plays Kaleen Bhaiya, said the movie looks bigger and is watched by many people together.

On streaming services, people usually watch alone or with a small group.

In a cinema, hundreds of people watch the same large screen at once.

Tripathi said acting is mostly the same in a series and a film.

However, the writing, visuals and technical work must change for the bigger screen.

The movie continues the fight for control of Mirzapur.

It had collected Rs 113.95 crore in India from its Hindi version after four days.

Tripathi also said people should learn about other cultures while staying connected to their own roots.
