Mirzapur: The Movie has taken forever to release, here’s why
Pankaj Tripathi had said to NDTV that the importance of good writing is in filmmaking and the makers began working on the script soon after the project was announced in 2024. He is of the opinion that a film should only be made when the team is 100% convinced of the story they want to tell.
“Chai tabhi chhaante hain jab proper khaul jaye,” he said, comparing it with the process of making tea. Once the story was fully developed and polished, the makers felt confident enough to move ahead and finally reveal the release date, he added.
So when they think they have the right story in their hands.. Chai jab proper khaul jaye tabhi toh chhaante hain. They began to strain the story when it was boiled. "Now that the process of straining is over, they have announced the date," the actor had said.
When is Mirzapur: The Movie releasing?
Mirzapur: The Movie is directed by Gurmeet Singh and written by Puneet Krishna. Amazon MGM Studios and Excel Entertainment are backing it. The film is produced by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar, under the banner of Excel Entertainment, with co-producers Kassim Jagmagia and Vishal Ramchandani.
