The Movie gears up for its theatrical release, the makers have unveiled the film's trailer, taking fans back into the gritty and much-loved world of Mirzapur. Ahead of the film's release, actor Shweta Tripathi, who reprises her popular role as Golu Gupta, reflected on her nearly decade-long association with the character and the special relationship she has developed with the Mirzapur audience. "Mirzapur has become a family for me. And it is not just the team but also the audience. Whenever I go out, people call me 'Golu Didi', and that is very important to me," Tripathi told ANI. The actor said the franchise has given her a level of recognition that has gone beyond the screen. "What Mirzapur has given me is incredible. It has made me a household name. I love the way fans add 'Didi' when they address me," she added. Tripathi also spoke about why Golu remains such a significant character in her journey. "I love Golu because she is not a regular girl. She is somebody who changed because of her social surroundings. The amount of love and respect that I have received is very precious," she said. The theatrical release is particularly exciting for the actor, who believes the communal experience of watching Mirzapur on the big screen will bring a new energy to the franchise.

 

"Mirzapur on the big screen brings a different level of fun. So many people will watch it together, and that is something I am really looking forward to," Tripathi said. The film takes audiences back to the world of Season 1, exploring a chapter in Golu's story that was left unresolved. Tripathi explained that the narrative follows Golu at the point when Sweety (Shriya Pilgaonkar) and Babloo (Vikrant Massey) die, changing the course of her life. "The film is from the world of Season 1. This is a chapter that was left somewhere in between. This is Golu when Sweety and Babloo are taken away from her and her entire life changes," she said. For Tripathi, returning to Golu after nine years is also a deeply personal experience. "It has been nine years since Golu has been a part of me and I have been a part of Golu. It has taught me a lot of things, and it is still teaching me," she said. With the trailer reigniting nostalgia for the original 'Mirzapur' universe and bringing its familiar characters back to the forefront, the film is set to give fans an opportunity to experience the franchise in an entirely new format on the big screen. Continuing from the world of Season 1, Mirzapur: The Movie brings together some of the franchise's most beloved and iconic characters, including Kaleen Bhaiya, Munna Bhaiya and Guddu Pandit. Mirzapur: The Movie, is directed by Gurmmeet Singh, is set to hit theatres on September 4, 2026.
