Mirzapur: The Film is easily among the most anticipated projects of the year, and the excitement has only intensified with Divyenndu Sharma returning as Munna Bhaiya. With fans closely tracking every update, the actor has now shared a glimpse of what’s in store—and it sounds massive.Speaking to News18, Divyenndu didn’t hold back on his excitement. “It’s gonna be big, very big. So much fun shooting that one; it’s going to be full paisa vasool. It is something people are waiting for. Let me not oversell it or reveal things, varna log bohot zyada karte hain, but whatever we have done is glorious,” he said, hinting at a high-octane cinematic experience.
‘Exciting and challenging’
While the return of Munna Bhaiya has fans thrilled, Divyenndu admits that stepping into intense roles comes with its own pressures. The actor, who is also gearing up for his upcoming action thriller Glory, opened up about navigating audience expectations.“It becomes both exciting and challenging,” he shared, adding, “My character in Glory is the one I have done the most intense prep for.”Backing this ambition, Mirzapur creator Karan Anshuman revealed that the idea was always to push boundaries. “We need to create something bigger and better than Munna Bhaiya,” he told the actor.
‘I distance myself from the love’
Despite the massive popularity of Munna Bhaiya, Divyenndu is consciously trying to detach from the shadow of the character. According to him, even appreciation can become a burden if it starts influencing choices.“As an artist, I absolutely distance myself even from the love and appreciation of people because that can be problematic. I don’t want that pressure on my shoulders that it needs to be better than this character or that character. I have to move on from there,” he explained.
