Shweta Tripathi Sharma has shared a fresh update on Mirzapur Season 4, revealing that work on the writing has already begun. The actor also said she is not ready to say goodbye to her popular character Golu Gupta.
Fans waiting for the next chapter of Mirzapur have received a promising update from Shweta Tripathi Sharma. The actor, who plays Golu Gupta in the Prime Video franchise, revealed that the writing process for Season 4 has already started.
Speaking at the NDTV Yuva 2026 session titled Mirzapur Ki Woomanya, Shweta said, “Thankfully, what we know is that the writing of Season 4 has begun.”
The update suggests that the franchise is moving forward with the development of its next season. However, Shweta’s comments do not reveal a release date or confirm when filming will begin.
Shweta Tripathi Says She Is ‘Not Done With Golu Yet’
Shweta also made it clear that she remains closely connected to the character she has played for several years.
“We, actors, are fans too. We are also looking forward to the next season,” she said, adding, “I’m not done with Golu yet.”
The actor reflected on Golu’s transformation throughout the franchise, from a college student into one of its most formidable characters.
“This journey with Golu has been very exciting over nine years. One of the strongest, toughest girls I have met. I hope no one has a life like hers,” Shweta said.
Her comments highlight how significantly Golu’s journey has evolved since the character was first introduced in Mirzapur.
From College Student to a Powerful Figure in Mirzapur
Golu Gupta began her journey in the series as a college student, but the events surrounding her gradually changed her character and placed her at the centre of the violent power struggles in Mirzapur.
For Shweta, portraying that transformation has been an important part of her acting career. She has also previously spoken about the physical and emotional demands associated with playing strong characters in the franchise.
According to the actor, her work on Mirzapur also influenced her approach to fitness. She described the opportunity to portray powerful female characters as creatively fulfilling, particularly because such roles are not always written with the same complexity and agency.
What Shweta Tripathi’s Season 4 Update Means
The biggest takeaway from Shweta’s latest comments is that writing for Mirzapur Season 4 has begun.
That is different from confirming a production timeline, shooting schedule or premiere date. The actor’s comments indicate that the creative process is underway, while further details about the cast, storyline and release are yet to be announced.
The franchise has built a large following around its characters, particularly Golu, Guddu Pandit and the power struggle surrounding the Tripathi family. Shweta’s latest remarks also indicate that she remains enthusiastic about returning to Golu’s story.
