Divyenndu on playing a badass gangster in Mirzapur series: I prepare myself well in advance

The long wait has finally come to an end as the trailer of the much awaited season 2 of Mirzapur has released today. The Amazon Prime crime series set in Uttar Pradesh stars Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, Divyenndu, Shweta Trpathi, Rasika Dugal and Kulbhushan Kharbanda. Joining them in Mirzapur 2 are Vijay Varma, Isha Talwar, Amit Sial and Anjum Sharma.

Actor Divyenndu has consistently impressed viewers across geographies with his praiseworthy performances over the years. As Munna, the young spoiled brat and badass villain from Mirzapur, Divyenndu has established his image as someone you don’t just forget about after the end credits roll in. For the audience, he has become an instant favourite and is all set to entertain his viewers with Mirzapur season 2. 

The actor who essays the role of a hot-headed yet balanced gangster shares insight as to how he can perform spontaneously. He said, “I prepare myself well in advance. I take my job so sincerely that sometimes I tell myself not to take everything seriously. My understanding of spontaneity is that it’s only when you do your homework and understand the character, you can be spontaneous on the sets, otherwise, your spontaneity will reflect in you as a person and not in the character. You need to understand the character completely, only then you can be spontaneous in that character.”

Divyenndu’s back to back interesting and authentic performances have created a niche position in the entertainment industry. Capable of playing both ends of the spectrum, be it a comical role or a badass character, Divyenndu will be next seen in a powerful avatar for the second season of Mirzapur.

 Mirzapur 2 releases on Amazon Prime Video on October 23 2020.
