Mirzapur 3: Makers Surprise Fans with Bonus Episode with Deleted Scenes, Munna Bhaiya Returns
The creators of the hit gangster drama Mirzapur 3 have delighted fans with a surprise bonus episode, released on Friday, August 30, two months after the show's premiere on Prime Video. This unexpected addition was initially teased as the much-anticipated return of Munna Bhaiya, a fan-favourite character portrayed by Divyendu Sharma. However, the episode turned out to be a compilation of deleted scenes from the third season rather than a full-fledged comeback for the character.
The episode opens with Munna Tripathi addressing the audience, acknowledging the outcry for his return. "My exit caused quite a stir. I’ve heard that our loyal fans missed me a lot. Honestly, I missed you all too. Loyalty is paramount to me, and your unwavering support deserves a reward," he says. Munna then reveals that the bonus episode will feature previously unseen deleted scenes from Mirzapur 3, offering fans a glimpse of what could have been.
Mirzapur Season 3 premiered on July 5, with a cast that includes some of the most celebrated names in the industry. The show features stellar performances by Ali Fazal, Pankaj Tripathi, Vijay Varma, Shweta Tripathi Sharma, Rasika Dugal, and Isha Talwar, among others. Produced and created by Excel Media and Entertainment, the series is directed by Gurmmeet Singh and Anand Iyer. The ensemble cast also includes Anjumm Shharma, Priyanshu Painyuli, Harshita Shekhar Gaur, Rajesh Tailang, Sheeba Chadha, Meghna Malik, and Manu Rishi Chadha.
The popular crime thriller, streaming exclusively on Prime Video, has captivated audiences around the globe with its gritty portrayal of power struggles in the fictional town of Mirzapur, India. However, the absence of Munna in the recent episodes of the third season left a noticeable void for many viewers who were drawn to his complex personality and the chaos he brought to the screen.
While Munna Bhaiya's return may not be what fans were hoping for, the bonus episode offers a nostalgic look back at one of the show's most dynamic characters, giving the audience a taste of the drama that continues to make Mirzapur a must-watch series.
