Honestly, I wish they'd focus on something more meaningful than just guns and gangsters. The show was good but glorifying violence is not something I'm comfortable with. But if you're into that, enjoy I guess. At least the acting is top notch.
Bhaukaal machne wala hai! Ravi Kishan and Jeetendra as new entrants - interesting combo. I hope they don't mess up the storyline like many web series to movie adaptations. Kaleen Bhaiya ka dialogue sunke toh goosebumps aa gaye. Isko toh theatre mein hi dekhna padega! 💪
I started watching Mirzapur during lockdown and got hooked. The characters are so well-written. I'm a bit skeptical about a movie though - the strength of the show was the slow build of tension. A movie might feel rushed. But I'll give it a shot because Pankaj Tripathi is amazing!
Bas itna keh sakta hoon - Guddu Pandit ka comeback! Ali Fazal ne toh season 2 mein kamaal kar diya tha. Aur Abhishek Banerjee bhi hai, woh toh har scene mein comedy aur drama dono de deta hai. Ye movie toh dekhni hi padegi. September 4 ka wait hai ab! 🎬
I'm excited but also worried. The show had some great female characters like Beena and Golu, but they often got sidelined. Hope the movie gives them more screen time
