After the third season, Mirzapur has become the most watched show in India for Amazon Prime Video.
Aside from at home, the crime drama has also found a massive audience in international markets, ranking in the top ten in over 80 countries.
The streamer said the show was viewed nearly 100% in Indian postal codes during its opening weekend.
“The third season of 'Mirzapur' has broken all previous records, including those of the second season. This success underscores the strong connection that the audience has with the show's characters, making it an important part of popular culture and everyday conversation,” said Nikhil Madhok, Head of India Originals at Prime Video.
Meanwhile, Excel Media producer Ritesh Sidhwani said, “I am delighted with the overwhelming response from the audience, which has helped us grow from strength to strength with each season.”
“It is your continued love and support, right from the first season, that has made our show a global sensation. This historic success is the result of the hard work, dedication and commitment of our entire team.”
Such a reception led Prime Video and Excel Media to begin work on the fourth season.
While the platform and studio remain tight-lipped on details, the upcoming season was expected to shed more light on the power struggles, gang wars and personal grudges in the criminal underworld of northern India.
