He is coming back for power, control, and ultimate domination—with a menacing, fiery rage. Ahead of the highly anticipated teaser launch, Amazon MGM Studios and Excel Entertainment have unveiled the first-look character poster for Mirzapur: The Movie, featuring actor Divyenndu as the volatile, fan-favorite gangster Munna Bhaiya.

Directed by Gurmmeet Singh and written by Puneet Krishna, the film is produced by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar under the banner of Excel Entertainment, with Kassim Jagmagia and Vishal Ramchandani co-producing. Mirzapur: The Movie is locked for a theatrical release in Hindi and Telugu on September 4.

In the debut poster, Divyenndu is captured marching mid-stride through an explosive haze of smoke and embers while wielding a blazing wooden torch.

Mirzapur The-Movie

The film marks the first-ever theatrical release for the landmark Mirzapur franchise, which originally premiered on Prime Video in 2018. Over its multi-season run, the crime syndicate drama evolved into one of India’s most influential and widely discussed streaming properties, defined by its grit, high-stakes political maneuvers, and regional power struggles.

Before the poster of Divyendu was unveiled, the makers had also dropped a poster featuring the iconic gaddi at the centre with guns placed on either side, instantly bringing back memories of the power struggles, rivalries and drama that made Mirzapur a phenomenon.

Across its seasons, the show built a strong following for its violence-driven narrative, ensemble cast, and characters that became widely referenced in popular culture. Subsequent seasons expanded the scale of the conflict while maintaining a focus on revenge, succession, and criminal politics.

Apart from the return of Divyenndu as Munna Bhaiya, a character whose arc in the series drew strong audience attention, several central characters from the series return in the film, including Pankaj Tripathi reprising his role as Kaleen Bhaiya, the mafia leader of Mirzapur and Ali Fazal returning as Guddu Pandit.
