Kaleen Bhaiyaa is back! Yes, you read that right.
The Amazon original crime-thriller Mirzapur that narrates the story of the infamous druglord Akhandanand Tripathi, nicknamed as Kaleen Bhaiyaa from Uttar Pradesh’s titular town of the same name had hooked viewers since the time it dropped on the streaming platform back in 2018.
With a stellar cast of Pankaj Tripathi, Divyendu Sharma, Ali Fazal, Vikrant Massey, Shweta Tripathi, Shriya Pilgaonkar, Rasika Dugal, Harshita Gaur and Kulbhushan Kharbanda, the show managed to grab a legion of fans with its no-holds-barred portrayal of corrupt governance and the ‘gundaraj’ of mafia dons. Now, the streaming site has dropped the long-awaited trailer for Season 2 of the show and fans can’t control their excitement.
