The web series revolves around the corruption, crime, governance failure, rule of mafia dons, and gang wars in Uttar Pradesh. Its new season takes the story forward as the fight to become the king of Mirzapur continues between Guddu Pandit (Ali Fazal) and Munna Bhaiya (Divyendu Sharma).

Meanwhile, the Aam Admi Party, too, joined the trend of the fandom to train its guns at the BJP government in Uttar Pradesh. "Are you excited for #Mirzapur2 or Are you living in Adityanath-ruled UP? (sic)," Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP tweeted hours before the webseries was released on Amazon. The jibe was meant to attack the UP government over rising crimes in the state.

However, the tweet also got called out for using a web series to make political commentary as people accused Delhi chief minister and AAP convenor Arvind Kejriwal of not doing enough for the national capital.
