One of the biggest talking points of the film is the return of Divyenndu as Munna Bhaiya. When asked about the comeback of his character, he said in his character's trademark style, “To begin with, it was a mistake, and everyone agrees. I am a Hindi film hero; I am immortal; nothing can happen to me.”
For unversed, during the final episode of season 2, Munna Tripathi found himself in a fight with Guddu Pandit and Golu Gupta. He got shot several times by Golu, and thus he ended up dying. His body was later taken away by Guddu and Golu.
