Mirzapur season 4: Release date speculation and latest news

Setting a new high with season 3, Mirzapur quickly went on to become the most-watched show in India during its launch weekend at the beginning of July. Since then, the Hindi-language crime thriller has gone on to be featured in the top 10 list across 85 countries including here in the UK, the US and Australia.

The third season delivered plenty of action across its exhilarating 10-episode run – but if the finale is anything to go by, Guddu Pandit is only just getting started.

Read on for everything we know so far about what the future holds for Mirzapur.

Is Mirzapur returning for season 4?

Yes!

It's now been confirmed (via Variety) that Prime Video and Excel Media and Entertainment have kicked off development on season 4.

On the positive reception to season 3, Nikhil Madhok, head of India originals at Prime Video, said: “The third season of Mirzapur has broken all previous records, including those set by Season 2.

"This success highlights the strong connection that audiences have with the show’s characters, making it a significant part of popular culture and everyday conversation.”

Similarly, Ritesh Sidhwani, producer at Excel Media and Entertainment, said: “I am thrilled by the overwhelming response from the audiences, who have helped us grow strength to strength with each season.

"It’s their continued love and support, right from the first season, that has made our show a global sensation. This historic success is a result of the hard work, dedication and commitment of our entire team.”

When could Mirzapur season 4 be released?

The release schedule for Mirzapur has been somewhat erratic.

Season 1 arrived in November 2018, followed by season 2 in October 2020. But then fans had to wait until 5th July 2024 for season 3 – so it remains to be seen when season 4 could arrive if it does get the green light.

2025 looks unlikely if previous seasons are anything to go by, but perhaps creators Karan Anshuman and Puneet Krishna will surprise us for the highly-anticipated fourth season.

As soon as we know more, we'll update this page.

Who could return for Mirzapur season 4?

Characters who could return for season 4 are:

• Guddu Pandit (Ali Fazal)
• Kaleen Bhaiya (Pankaj Tripathi)
• Beena Tripathi (Rasika Dugal)
• Golu Gupta (Shweta Tripathi)
• Shatrughan Tyagi (Vijay Varma)
• Madhuri Yadav (Isha Talwar)

What could happen in Mirzapur season 4?

Sharad Shukla was poised to take the throne in season 3 before being shot dead by Kaleen Bhaiya – which resulted in a tense shoot out, after which he was the only one left standing.

And after it looked like we'd lost Guddu Pandit, who was beaten by his fellow inmates after being imprisoned, he miraculously survived.

Will Kaleen and Guddu join forces to retake power?

As of now, there's been no word on what season 4 will be about but according to Variety, we can expect that "the series to continue its exploration of power dynamics and criminal underworld in the heartland of northern India".
