The new season of the cult show Mirzapur has begun streaming on Amazon Prime Video, amid much anticipation and excitement from fans. The first season turned into a pop culture sensation, when it came out a couple of years back. The dialogues were turned into awesome memes that still continue to trend, while the characters like Kaleen Bhaiya, Munna, Guddu Tripathi became cultural icons on their own right. Well, Mirzapur 2 takes the legacy ahead, but stutters and stumbles all along the way. Mirzapur 2 Review: Too Many Characters and Plotlines Spoil the Fun in Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal’s Web-Series.
The final episode of the last season had set the path for Mirzapur 2 to take - being a revenge saga. A vengeful Munna (Divyenndu Sharma) kills Bablu Pandit (Vikrant Massey) and Guddu's (Ali Fazal) wife Sweety (Shriya Pilgaonkar) at the wedding reception of their business associate's daughter. Meanwhile Kaleen Bhaiya retains his status quo as the baahubali of Mirzapur in a brutal showcase of power that leaves ACP RS Maurya (Amit Sial) at his mercy. His father Satyanand Tripathi, despite being wheelchair-bound, blackmails his philandering daughter-in-law Beena (Rasika Dugal) to have sex with him, and also get her to bobbit her domestic help and secret lover, Raja (Nitin Mahesh Joshi).
Mirzapur 2 has a handicapped Guddu and Sweety's seething sister Golu (Shweta Tripathi Sharma), hell-bent on avenging the deaths of their kin and take power of Mirzapur. There are other players who want their stake, like Sharad Shukla (Anjum Sharma), who has a bone to grind with both Guddu and Munna. The action also expands to Bihar, where we meet the Tyagis, the powerful dons there, whose youngest son Shatrughan (Vijay Verma) falls for Golu. And as expected, there are plenty of deaths, most of which happen in the final couple of episodes. And some of them are of principal characters. And some survive so that they can once again indulge in the powerplay for the throne of Mirzapur in season 3. Yes, the series ends on that note!

Kaleen Bhaiya
Final Fate: Heavily Injured But Alive
Kaleen Bhaiya might have convinced his son that he doesn't want to kill him, but he gets heavily injured in the crossfire that happens between him and Munna, and Golu and Guddu. He is, however, saved by Sharad, to live another day, though we cannot say about his son.
Munna
Final Fate: Dead
Yup, the Joffrey Baratheon of the show - the most entertaining aspect of Mirzapur - is shot dead by the vengeful Golu and Guddu, in the same manner in which he killed Guddu. And to think, Munna began the new season by claiming he is immortal!
Guddu
Final Fate: Alive
Guddu reigns on top at the end of the new season, killing Munna, though he lets Kaleen Bhaiya gets away. The last scene sees him sit on Kaleen's regal chair, thus indicating that the power of Mirzapur is now in his control.
Golu
Final Fate: Alive
Golu finally gets to complete her revenge on Munna, and it looks like she is going to be Guddu's lieutenant in the third season. Golu has to be careful, though, as the Tyagi's, or what's left of them, are baying for her blood.

Maqbool
Final Fate: Alive
Kaleen's loyal hulk of a bodyguard turns against him, when Munna kills his nephew and his mother, in what is Munna's biggest mistake of the season. It remains to be seen how he will face his former master in the next season, after playing his part in Bauji's death.
Raja
Final Fate: Killed
Beena's lover and the father of her child tries to kill Munna, goaded by Beena, who convinces him that Munna will kill their child. Instead, Munna overpowers him and shoots him dead, but not before Raja puts a final play, claiming that he has been sent to kill Munna by Kaleen.
