Summary

Mirzapur is about the rivalry of two mafia gangs who want to gain power and constantly try to exterminate each other. The leader of the  Mirzapur Akhandanan Tripathi popularly known as Kaleen bhaiya is one of the most powerful gangsters by his name the whole city and even policeman gets scared and no one can go against him.

Kaleen bhaiya has a son name Munna bhaiya who is a punk and uses his father's name to do anything he wants and kill anybody without having any fear of law and order, as no one wants to stand against Kaleen bhaiya.

The other mafia gang who is as powerful as Kaleen bhaiya is Rati Shankar who is the king of Jaunpur and always dream to take over the Mirzapur and throw over Kaleen bhaiya and get its revenge for what his family had done to him.

But the nightmare started for Munna bhaiya when a lawyer named Ramakant Pandit decided to stand against them. Munna bhaiya tries to threaten Ramakant Pandit and his family but gets beaten instead by Ramakant Pandit’s sons named Guddu and Bablu.

Kaleen bhaiya offered Guddu and Bablu to work for him and this leads to a sense of jealously in Munna for Guddu and Bablu as Munna thinks that his father likes them more than him. Soon this jealousy converted into hatred and Munna planned to exterminate his father to take on the throne of Mirzapur.

Later, he planned to create misunderstanding between Kaleen bhaiya and Guddu & Bablu to overthrow the trust of Kaleen bhaiya on  Guddu & Bablu  and clear them from his way to take on Mirzapur.

Mirzapur consists of a total of 2 seasons. Season 1 was released officially on 16 November 2018 and Season 2 was official released on 23 October 2020 (FYI: Surprisingly it was released on Amazon Prime one day before its official date).

Season 1 consists total of 9 episodes whereas Season 2 consist of 10 episodes in total 19 episodes with running time of nearly 50 mins each. The best thing is the makers did not unnecessarily extend the length of the web series.

Season 1 vs Season 2




Season 1 was best known for its badass and hilarious dialogues and comic time whereas Season 2 for its perfect follow-through of the story.

Season 1 had a simple story line up while Season 2 has a relatively complex one.  Season 1 was about the actions of characters whereas Season 2 follows the consequences of the actions in Season 1.

Season 2 also shows the influence of politics which is missing in Season 1. Season 2 covers a broader aspect but contain less punches as compare to season 1 as Season 2 tone was more of serious one than Season 1.

 Highlights of Mirzapur

It is one of the best Indian web series which pulled so much attention. It is best known for its hilarious and badass dialogues but you also cannot miss the action sequences shown in this series.  This series is a fiction plotted on the rivalry of mafia gang and their constant action to gain superiority over each other is well depicted.

Some of the sequences are so dramatic and intense which will entertain you very much and hook you to this series. The comic timing is also great and it doesn’t seem to be embedded needlessly in the Series.

Some of the scenes are explicit too but not too much of it and the storyline is great without any unnecessary extra elements, even with such simple plot it will entertain you in all aspects.

My perspective/ opinion

In my opinion, Mirzapur is one of the best web series that India and Amazon Prime have to offer. It contains all the elements that you want in a web series, it will thoroughly entertain you and you will really love it.

I mostly enjoyed the perfectly embedded comedy in this web series with its hilarious and badass dialogues, the characters are unique and best presented.

Season 2 is a little bit off drawn and contain some loopholes as some sequences look a little bit based on luck but in the whole it is good.

I am really hoping for Season 3 to be good and not to ruin the whole web series as many web series start to be good but after that, they go downhill.

At last, if you want to see some badass web series about mafia gang, you should really watch Mirzapur and you really love it.
