Mirzapur 2: Check out when Amazon Prime's popular crime series will start streaming

‘When is the season two of Mirzapur releasing?’ - has remained one of the most asked questions for over a year now. The question has finally been answered as the makers on Monday revealed the date of the much-anticipated second season of Amazon Prime Video series.

In a video announcement, it was revealed that season two of the popular crime drama, Mirzapur, will release on October 23.

The video featured Ali Fazal aka Guddu Bhaiya's voice over who described two kinds of people in the world -- dead and alive followed by a third kind -- missing.

"Hum se sab chheen liye aur humein zinda chhod diye. Galti kiye (They took everything from me and left me alive. Big mistake)," he culminated the video with a warning.

Going by the video, it is clear that drama and suspense in the season 2 is going to be bigger and better.

The first season of the series ended with Munna(Divyendu) killing Guddu's brother Bablu(Vikran Massey) and wife Sweety(Shriya Pilgaonkar) and the second season's story will supposedly take over from there.

Set in a dark and complex narrative, Mirzapur's first season revolved around a crime lord named Kaleen Bhaiya(Pankaj Tripathi) and two brothers Guddu and Bablu who amateurly get associated with crime lord's world of guns, drugs and politics.

Talking about the new season, Rasika Dugal, who plays Kaleen Bhaiya's wife in the series, said: "The ‘Mirzapur' audience is very loyal. The first question to any of my posts on social media is always 'Mirzapur season 2 kab aayega'. So am happy that we are finally bringing season 2. I am sure they will feel the wait has been worth it, as season 2 has a lot to offer. They will get to meet their favourite characters again and will also be introduced to some very interesting new ones. On my part, I thoroughly enjoyed being Beena Tripathi again. We will see a different side of her this season but just as powerful and unpredictable."

The new season will see actors Pankaj Tripathi, Divyenndu, Shweta Tripathi Sharma, Rasika Dugal and Harshita, Shekhar Gaur will return reprising their roles from the first season, as will Amit Sial, Anjum Sharma, Sheeba Chaddha, Manu Rishi Chadha and Rajesh Tailang.

Season 2 will have some new additions, too, with Vijay Varma, Priyanshu Painyuli and Isha Talwar.
