Brace yourselves, ‘Mirzapur’ aficionados, the fourth season of the iconic TV series may be its last. In an interview with Hindi Rush, actor Ali Fazal, who stars as the evergreen Govind Pandit, aka Guddu Bhaiyya, hinted that the series may come to an end after the fourth season. However, he also promised fans that there is a “big surprise” awaiting them in Season 4.
Excitement Builds Around The Final Season
Ali Fazal shared his enthusiasm for the upcoming season, revealing that the original ensemble cast will be returning. Just a week prior to the interview, he had listened to the season's script, and his reaction was full of anticipation. He promised viewers a season that would not only retain the show's hallmark intensity but also bring a surprising new angle. Unlike some popular international shows that transition into feature films, Ali clarified that Mirzapur will take a distinct path forward rather than merely replicate that trend.
Drawing a comparison, he referenced Peaky Blinders, another acclaimed series that opted for a film continuation. While Peaky Blinders embraced cinema for its next chapter, Fazal hinted that Mirzapur is opting for a unique route, although he remained tight-lipped about what exactly that would entail.
Cast Lineup and Production Updates Remain Under Wraps
When pressed about the lineup for the future project—especially whether it would feature a movie adaptation—Ali refrained from disclosing any names. He mentioned that the creators would soon share official details regarding the cast. Although the third season aired in 2024 and the fourth is in development, Fazal indicated that the writing process for this potentially final chapter is still underway.
"That (the new season) is still being written because… I don’t know… It will probably be the last season," he told Hindi Rush.
In terms of future prospects, a standalone Mirzapur film has been announced, with a tentative release expected in 2026. Yet, it remains unclear whether characters who met their end in the series will reappear in this new format. Alongside Fazal, the show has boasted an ensemble cast featuring Vikrant Massey, Shweta Tripathi, Shriya Pilgaonkar, Divyenndu, and Rasika Dugal. All have played pivotal roles in shaping the show's legacy.
