Bollywood News: Mirzapur fans have a reason to celebrate as Shweta Tripathi has confirmed that work on the highly anticipated fourth season of the Prime Video series is underway. The actress, who has played Gajgamini “Golu” Gupta since the beginning of the franchise, revealed at NDTV Yuva 2026 that the writing for Mirzapur Season 4 is currently in progress.
Shweta Tripathi Confirms Season 4 Writing
During her appearance at NDTV Yuva 2026, Shweta Tripathi gave fans the update they had been waiting for. When asked about the future of the franchise, the actress confirmed that the writing for Mirzapur Season 4 has already started.
Shweta said that the journey with Golu is not over for her. She also described Mirzapur as a project that continues to give something new to its actors and creators.
The confirmation follows earlier comments from Shweta in which she had also revealed that Season 4 was in development. In a September interview with Bollywood Hungama, she said that the fourth season was being written and expressed her excitement about returning to the world of Mirzapur.
Golu Gupta’s Story Is Far From Over
Shweta Tripathi’s Golu Gupta has undergone one of the most significant transformations in the Mirzapur franchise. She began as a relatively innocent college student before becoming a determined and hardened character following the events of the earlier seasons.
Speaking at NDTV Yuva 2026, Shweta said Golu remains one of the strongest characters she knows and acknowledged how much the role has changed her as an actor. She also indicated that her association with Golu will continue for some time.
Mirzapur Season 4 Will Follow Season 3
The upcoming fourth season is expected to continue the main series storyline after Season 3. Shweta has previously explained that Mirzapur The Movie and Season 4 are separate stories within the same universe.
In an earlier interview with India Today, she said that Season 4 would continue from the events of Season 3, while the theatrical film is a separate story set within the same Mirzapur world.
This distinction is important because the recently released Mirzapur The Movie uses a different point in the franchise's timeline rather than simply serving as a direct continuation of Season 3.
What Shweta Said About The Mirzapur Movie
Shweta is currently receiving attention for returning as Golu in Mirzapur The Movie. The actress has described the film as her biggest theatrical release so far, particularly because her previous films such as Masaan, Haraamkhor and Gone Kesh had comparatively limited theatrical releases.
She said the film's wide theatrical presence was a new experience for her and credited the franchise's audience for making such a large-scale release possible.
Another Mirzapur Project Is Also Coming
Shweta's latest comments suggest that the Mirzapur universe is not stopping with the theatrical film and Season 4.
At NDTV Yuva 2026, she mentioned that another film is also coming while Season 4 is being written. However, details about that additional project, including its story, cast and release schedule, have not been fully revealed.
This means fans could potentially see the franchise expand across both theatrical and streaming formats in the coming years.
Shweta Tripathi On Playing Golu For So Long
Playing the same character for nearly a decade has presented a unique challenge for Shweta. The actress has previously explained that while she has grown personally and professionally over the years, Golu's timeline has moved differently.
According to Shweta, the character has not aged at the same pace as she has. She therefore has to separate her own experiences from Golu's emotional journey and return to the character's established mindset whenever she plays her.
This approach becomes particularly important because Golu's character has evolved through grief, revenge and changing power dynamics throughout the franchise.
When Will Mirzapur Season 4 Release?
While the writing process has been confirmed, Prime Video has not announced an official release date for Mirzapur Season 4. The current update establishes that the scripts are being developed, but production and release details have not been officially disclosed.
For now, fans can look forward to the continuation of the main series while also following the expanding Mirzapur movie universe.
The Golu Gupta Journey Continues
For Shweta Tripathi, Golu Gupta has become one of the defining characters of her career. From her early days in Mirzapur to her return in Mirzapur The Movie, the character has remained an important part of her professional journey.
With Season 4 now being written, Shweta's latest confirmation gives fans a clear indication that Golu's story is still moving forward. The exact plot, returning cast and release date remain under wraps, but the writing phase confirms that the Mirzapur universe has another chapter in development.
