Rumors have been swirling about Hrithik Roshan potentially replacing Pankaj Tripathi as Kaleen Bhaiya in the upcoming season of Mirzapur. The show’s director, Gurmeet Singh, recently addressed these speculations. He stated, "There hasn't been any official announcement yet," and added, "The producers and studio are responsible for such decisions, and they will provide an official statement when the time comes." Singh further noted, "At this moment, I can't confirm or deny anything. Until higher authorities make a statement, no details can be revealed."

Neither Pankaj Tripathi nor Hrithik Roshan have commented on the matter, and the official stance remains unclear. Currently, Mirzapur Season 4 has not been confirmed but is expected to release in late 2025 or early 2026. Prime Video and Excel Media are reportedly working on the new season.
