As the highly anticipated third season of Mirzapur approaches its release date, excitement among fans is reaching a fever pitch. The series, starring Ali Fazal and Vijay Varma, has garnered a dedicated following for its intense storyline and complex characters. In an exclusive interview with ANI, Vijay Varma shared insights into what fans can expect in the upcoming season.
Vijay Varma on His Character’s Evolution
Vijay Varma, who plays a pivotal role in Mirzapur, shared some intriguing details about his character’s journey in the third season. He revealed, “I had nothing to do with the throne or with Mirzapur. I was running a good business in Siwan, stealing and selling cars. All this happened because of a woman. Now, I don’t want the throne; I want to break it.” This revelation hints at a significant shift in his character’s motivations and actions, promising an exciting arc for viewers to follow.
Regarding the absence of Munna’s character this season, Vijay explained, “Munna is a very popular character in the show. I think that’s just the format of the show. In the first season, they killed off a popular character. In the next season, they killed off an even more popular character. That’s the unique feature and strength of the series.” This approach to character development keeps the audience on their toes, constantly anticipating unexpected twists.
