Shweta Tripathi Teases Testosterone-Heavy Mirzapur The Film
In a new interview with an Indian publication, Shweta Tripathi, who essays the fan-favorite character of Gajgamini Gupta aka Golu, in the gangster thriller, revealed that despite the show’s strong portrayal of women, ‘Mirzapur The Film’ will be ‘more of a testosterone-heavy’ title.
“The thing is that somewhere this is the male world. While women are not the side characters here, I know, the majority are men and the power is with men. So that will reflect,” she teased. “So the film I think is going to follow the world and writing and language of Mirzapur but I think it’s going to be more of a testosterone-heavy film.”

She furthered, “Now in the trailer and the teaser that we’ve seen we see Compounder and Munna. That means it is going to be a chapter from season one. In season one the women were part of it and in the film, they will be part of it.”
“It feels great that we are the first OTT series to be a movie but it’s also a responsibility because of the love and respect we’ve got from the audience,” added Tripathi.
