Mirzapur Season 4: Is Sharad Shukla Still Alive?

After the cliffhanger ending of the third installment, fans are eagerly anticipating Mirzapur Season 4. The third season begins with the funeral of the beloved character Munna Bhaiya, which left many viewers disappointed. As the story progresses, several new characters are introduced, who are later killed. Among these, the death of the prominent character Sharad Shukla was particularly shocking, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats.

The climactic ending of Mirzapur Season 3 has raised numerous questions and theories among fans, heightening the anticipation for the next season. Among those, an important question was raised by the audience – whether Sharad Shukla is still alive, and if he will be a part of Mirzapur season 4.

Will Sharad Shukla be a part of Mirzapur Season 4?

Mirzapur season 3 premiered on Amazon Prime Video on July 5, 2024, and received mixed reviews. Anjumm Shharma played the role of Sharad Shukla, the son of Rati Shankar Shukla, in the Mirzapur series. For those unaware, Sharad has been a pivotal character throughout the franchise’s three seasons.

Despite slow character development in the previous two seasons, Sharad Shukla’s character took a significant leap in Season 3, earning praise from the audience. However, in the cliffhanger ending, Kaleen Bhaiya (Pankaj Tripathi) shoots Sharad Shukla, ultimately leading to his death. This cliffhanger ending left many fans feeling that Sharad’s death was unjustified after his extensive character development.

In a recent interview with India Today, Anjumm Shharma discussed his character in Mirzapur and defended the ending as justified. He said, “I knew about the end of my character. I knew this is how Sharad had to exit, and I think it’s well justified. Mirzapur is known for its drama and the way it shocks you. The way this character was developed, it was a classic ending.”

He further added, “I don’t think it was unfair. It was the biggest dramatic part of Season 3. See, I knew this was going to happen, but our goal was to make the audience feel bad for him when it happened [Sharad’s death].”

Thus, it is clear that Anjumm Shharma’s character, Sharad, has met his end in Season 3. However, it will be intriguing to see how the makers continue the storyline in Mirzapur Season 4. Stay tuned for more updates!
