Ravi Kishan Teases Fans From Gorakhpur
The latest Ravi Kishan Mirzapur update came from Gorakhpur, where the actor shared his excitement about the response surrounding the film.
Ravi said he was bringing a “garma-garam report” from Gorakhpur and revealed that the response to Mirzapur: The Movie has been very positive. He also said people are eagerly waiting for September 4, the day when the film finally reaches theatres.
The actor's comments come at a crucial moment, as the film has entered its final promotional phase. Advance bookings also opened on August 31, giving fans the opportunity to secure tickets ahead of the much-awaited release.
Ravi Kishan Plays a Dangerous Villain
One of the major attractions of Mirzapur: The Movie is Ravi Kishan's character Babban Babua, also known as Babban Yadav.
Unlike the familiar characters who have dominated the original series, Babban represents a new threat in the battle for the Mirzapur throne. According to the film's promotional material, his character is ambitious, unpredictable and determined to establish his control.
Ravi has described Babban as a colourful but dangerous personality, suggesting that the character will bring a different kind of energy to the already chaotic world of Mirzapur.
His arrival is expected to create another power struggle involving Kaleen Bhaiya, played by Pankaj Tripathi, and Guddu Pandit, played by Ali Fazal.
Mirzapur Moves From OTT to the Big Screen
The biggest development surrounding Mirzapur: The Movie is its transition from streaming to theatres.
The original series premiered in 2018 and went on to become one of India's most popular crime dramas. After three successful seasons, the creators decided to take the franchise to the big screen with a standalone cinematic story. The film is not simply being presented as another season but as a larger theatrical chapter in the Mirzapur universe.
The film brings back several of the franchise's most recognisable characters, including Kaleen Bhaiya, Guddu Pandit and Munna Tripathi.
Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal and Divyenndu Return
Fans will once again see Pankaj Tripathi as Kaleen Bhaiya, Ali Fazal as Guddu Pandit and Divyenndu as Munna Bhaiya.
The return of Divyenndu is particularly significant because Munna's character became one of the most popular figures in the original series. The film brings the three characters together again while introducing new contenders into the battle for Mirzapur's throne.
The ensemble also includes Rasika Dugal, Shweta Tripathi, Shriya Pilgaonkar, Abhishek Banerjee, Harshita Gaur, Jitendra Kumar, Sonal Chauhan, Mohit Malik, Sushant Singh and several other actors.
Film Gets A Certificate Ahead of Release
Another important update came just before the release. Mirzapur: The Movie has received an A certificate from the CBFC and has a reported runtime of 197.19 minutes, making it approximately three hours and 17 minutes long.
The certification means the film will retain the mature tone and intense atmosphere associated with the franchise. Reports indicate that the makers have largely preserved the film's raw treatment while making only limited changes during certification.
September 4 Will Decide the Big-Screen Bhaukaal
With advance bookings now underway, attention is shifting towards the film's opening-day performance.
The Mirzapur The Movie release date is September 4, and the film will mark the franchise's first major theatrical outing. After building a massive audience on OTT, the challenge now is to convince viewers to experience the same world collectively inside cinemas.
Ravi Kishan's latest update suggests that the excitement is already visible among audiences, particularly in his home region of Gorakhpur.
Ravi Kishan’s Update Raises Expectations
The Ravi Kishan Mirzapur update has arrived at exactly the right time. With only a few days left before release, the actor's positive comments have added to the anticipation around the film.
The real test, however, begins on September 4 when Mirzapur: The Movie finally reaches theatres. With the return of Kaleen Bhaiya, Guddu Pandit and Munna Bhaiya, along with Ravi Kishan's new threat as Babban Babua, the battle for the Mirzapur throne appears bigger than ever.
If the audience response matches the excitement seen during promotions and advance bookings, the franchise could deliver the kind of theatrical “bhaukaal” its fans have been waiting for.
