Divyenndu can be heard saying in Hindi, "I'm a Hindi film hero. A Hindi film is best enjoyed in a theatre. Need I remind you, I'm immortal." The video was shared with the caption, "Diwali pe sabko mithai milti hai, lekin yeh lo, Mirzapur ki asli barfi (Everyone gets sweets on Diwali but here is the real dessert of Mirzapur)."
Talking about expanding the Mirzapur universe into a film, producers Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar of Excel Entertainment said, "It is a landmark milestone for us to bring the quintessential Mirzapur experience to our audiences, yet again, but this time on the big screen. Over the course of three successful seasons, this acclaimed franchise has struck all the right chords with fans through its powerful storytelling and memorable characters - from the likes of Kaleen Bhaiya, Guddu Bhaiya, and Munna Bhaiya, to name a few".
