'Mirzapur 2' actors reveal their favourite scenes from the show

Basking in the success of their webseires, the stellar cast of Mirzapur 2 recently shared their experiences of working with each other. 

From decoding their characters to sharing anecdotes from behind the scenes, the actors revealed quite a lot about the crime drama during an Instagram live session with the Indian Express.

Speaking to the outlet, Pankaj Tripathi, Anjum Sharma and Isha Talwar among others also talked about their favourite scenes from the Amazon Prime webseries. 

Here’s what they had to say: 

Pankaj Tripathi (Kaleen Tripathi)

I’m yet to watch the entire season as I can’t sit for long hours. But I liked all the dining table scenes, where the entire family sits together. It’s a broken household. Though the Tripathi family looks powerful from outside, there are several cracks inside.

There’s a vacuum. Kaleen doesn’t know when his son will improve. His wife is on another track and his father has his ways. The power dynamics and chemistry inside the house is tricky. They are divided yet connected in a weird way. So I enjoyed doing all the scenes in the house.

Anjum Sharma (Sharad Shukla)

I really like the bar scene between the three of us – Guddu, Munna and me. A constant power shift is happening in that scene. You don’t know who the hero is, and that made it very interesting for me.

Another scene is when Munna comes with his entourage during the prayer meet. You know Munna is short-tempered, so when these two baahubalis come together, you expect something to happen. But unexpectedly Sharad stays calm and calls a truce. For me, the interesting part was that whole walk when he is not talking, there’s so much happening inside him in that silence.

Isha Talwar (Madhuri Yadav)

I liked the nice tender moment between Madhuri and Munna when she’s working at home after the oath-taking ceremony. Munna is trying to strike a conversation and pull her out of the file. I liked watching Munna like that, since he's always up to something bad.

Priyanshu Painyuli (Robin)

My favourite scene is coming out of the washroom in Dimpy’s room when Guddu has told him not to be around his sister. Many people told me later that Robin being there at that time was highly unexpected. I liked how Guddu holds his neck and just when you expect him to fight back, he locks the door from outside and threatens him. 

Anangsha Biswas (Zarina)

Some people are fixated on my eyes so they don’t give me dialogues. So those scenes were challenging for me. But I liked watching what she [Zarina] was planning to do with Yadav. It had to be shown in a subtle way, or else it would’ve been a spoiler.

Harshita Gaur (Dimpy Pandit)

The one where I sleep on the bike. I think that was very sweet. We were enjoying and feeling it while doing it also. Then I like the scene where Dimpy beats the guy. It shows that she can kill someone, but it’s her choice to do that or not. That’s the decision she makes. Also, I shot that scene with a knee injury.
