⚡ Quick answer
Watch Mirzapur in release order: Season 1, Season 2, Season 3 (plus its bonus episode), then Mirzapur: The Movie. The movie is set during Season 1, but it is built for fans who already know how the story ends, so it works best last. Season 4 has not been dated yet.
Mirzapur now has three seasons, a bonus episode and a feature film, and the film is a prequel-ish story dropped into the middle of the timeline. That makes “where do I start?” a real question for anyone coming in fresh in the US, where the whole franchise sits on Prime Video. Here are two orders, and which one we recommend.
Mirzapur watch order (release order)
| # | Title | Released | Where |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Mirzapur Season 1 | November 2018 | Prime Video |
| 2 | Mirzapur Season 2 | October 2020 | Prime Video |
| 3 | Mirzapur Season 3 | July 5, 2024 | Prime Video |
| 4 | Season 3 bonus episode | August 2024 | Prime Video |
| 5 | Mirzapur: The Movie (extended cut) | Theaters September 4, 2026; Prime Video October 30, 2026 | Prime Video |
| 6 | Mirzapur Season 4 | Not announced | Prime Video |
This is the order we recommend for first-timers. Every character death and power shift lands the way the writers intended, and the movie plays like a bonus chapter for people who already care about these characters.
Mirzapur chronological order
If you want the story in timeline order instead, slot the movie inside Season 1:
- Season 1 (the movie’s events happen during this stretch)
- Mirzapur: The Movie
- Season 2
- Season 3 and the bonus episode
It works, but it is not ideal for newcomers. The film assumes you already know who Munna, Guddu and Beena are, and some of its biggest moments hit harder once you know what happens to them later.
Do you need to watch the series before Mirzapur: The Movie?
You can follow the film on its own. It is a self-contained story about Kaleen Bhaiya taking a dangerous cash job for an election, far from home in the desert. But you will get much more out of it with at least Season 1 behind you, because the film leans on relationships the show spent years building.
Where does the movie fit in the Mirzapur timeline?
It is set during the events of Season 1, which is why Munna Bhaiya is alive and back on screen. It is not a sequel to Season 3 and it does not resolve that season’s cliffhangers. Those are being saved for Season 4, which was developed alongside the film.
When is Mirzapur Season 4 coming out?
Prime Video has not announced a date. Scripting is underway with director Gurmmeet Singh, and reports suggest the production timeline will only be locked in early 2027, which points to a late 2027 or early 2028 release. It is expected to pick up directly from Season 3’s finale.
How long does it take to watch all of Mirzapur?
Seasons 1 to 3 run 30 episodes in total, most around 45 to 60 minutes, and the extended cut of the movie adds about 3 hours 31 minutes. Budget roughly 30 hours for the whole franchise, or about three weekends of heavy bingeing.
Season 4 status: Esquire India.
