Mirzapur The Film: Ali Fazal opens up on series taking Peaky Blinders route; reveals movie will have ‘some dead people walking’

As a die-hard fan of Mirzapur, I can hardly contain my excitement for the upcoming film adaptation! Ever since Ali Fazal hinted at a Peaky Blinders-esque approach to the movie, I’ve been on tenterhooks, eagerly waiting for more details. The thought of Guddu Pandit (played by none other than the talented Mr. Fazal) walking among the living again is almost too much to bear!

The excitement surrounding the transformation of the popular TV series, Mirzapur, into a movie has never waned since its announcement. Fans who devoured the show are now impatiently waiting to experience the action-thriller on the cinema screen. Recently, Ali Fazal shared details about his upcoming project and hinted that it could follow in the footsteps of Peaky Blinders. He also confirmed that some characters may still be alive.

In a fresh take: Ali Fazal played a significant part in the widely-acclaimed TV series, Mirzapur. Since news broke about the upcoming film adaptation, fans have been eager to learn more about its narrative. Just as his followers, Ali is equally thrilled about its cinematic release. Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter India, he shared that the team plans to continue with the original cast that graced the show.

He shared additional details about the storyline, hinting at their possible journey into the past. “We’re going back in time because we have some characters who are essentially undead,” he explained, drawing a parallel with the British crime drama series ‘Peaky Blinders’, which similarly ventured into temporal shifts, as it wasn’t an unusual or isolated decision.

The actor shared that for additional information about his upcoming venture, people should plan to go see it at movie theaters, as that’s where it’ll be playing. A quick reminder: Ali was the character Guddu Pandit in the web series Mirzapur.
