Divyenndu, who plays Munna Bhaiya in Mirzapur, explains that he chose the role after feeling stressed during the casting process. He says he was “so troubled” that he felt, in his words, that “God said, okay giving you wait, don’t sulk about every day,” leading him to see himself as getting “Munna.”
The outlet reports this as part of Divyenndu’s reflections on his career and decisions tied to the series. His comments also reference Vikrant Massey’s character, Bablu, highlighting that he was aware of the comparison between the roles. Other details beyond his personal reasoning are limited in the coverage provided, and the emphasis is on his own explanation rather than on official casting negotiations, producers’ statements, or industry context.
Overall, the reporting centers on Divyenndu’s account of how he interpreted the waiting period and how that mindset influenced his association with Munna Bhaiya, while noting the alternative character role mentioned in the interview.
