Abhishek Banerjee and Divyenndu are reuniting for a new Amazon Prime Video web series, marking their third collaboration after the Mirzapur franchise. The project, described as an ‘Empire’-style drama and co-produced by Endemol, will see the duo step away from the gangster world that defined their breakout roles — Compounder and Munna Bhaiya, in the popular streaming series. While the plot, setting, period, and character details remain under wraps, sources confirm Abhishek Banerjee will headline the series, with Divyenndu playing a key role. The makers are reportedly building a larger-scale narrative, aiming to explore a different side of both actors beyond the gritty realism of Mirzapur. This reunion comes just months after they shared screen space in Mirzapur: The Movie, reigniting fan excitement around their on-screen chemistry. The series is expected to be a high-stakes, dramatic spectacle, though no release timeline has been announced. Meanwhile, Abhishek Banerjee has several projects in motion: a Tamil debut with Netflix featuring R. Madhavan, Nimisha Sajayan, and Gulshan Devaiah. An action film opposite Tiger Shroff directed by Remo D’Souza. And a psychological thriller with TVF. Divyenndu, too, is preparing for a lead role in an upcoming period film before moving on to Madgaon Express 2, directed by Kunal Kemmu. The new Amazon Prime Video series stands out not just for its star power but for the ambition behind it. A shift from regional crime sagas to a potentially global-scale drama. Whether it lives up to the 'Empire' billing remains to be seen. But one thing’s certain: the moment the two men walk into the same frame again, the conversation starts all over.
