After dominating the OTT space and gaining cult status, Mirzapur is now headed for a theatrical release. Following a trend seen with shows like Peaky Blinders in the west, the blockbuster crime thriller is making the leap from web to the big screen.
Fans are excited to see Ali Fazal, Pankaj Tripathi, Shweta Tripathi, and Divyendu Shukla reprise their roles in the film. Adding more buzz, Jitendra Kumar and Ravi Kishan have also joined the project which is expected to release in 2026.
Both Jitendra Kumar and Ravi Kishan are established names in the OTT world with a strong connect to desi audiences. Viewers admire their work in shows like Panchayat, Kota Factory, and Maamla Legal Hai which makes their addition to Mirzapur highly anticipated.
The excitement grew after the two were spotted at the muhurat puja of the film. Fans are speculating on which side of the political rivalry they will support and how their characters will shape the story.
Reports suggest that the film may serve as a prequel that explores the origins of the political and factional drama. With its larger-than-life setting and powerful cast, Mirzapur on the big screen promises to be one of the biggest cinematic events of 2026.
