Varma’s portrayal of the twin brothers, Bharat and Shatrughan, was a standout in ‘Mirzapur 2’. He explains the distinct personas he embodied: “Bharat zimmedar hai, uske sir par poora vyaapar hai. Bade bhai hain, samajhdaar hona toh zaroori hai. Shatrughan ek aazad panchi hai. Jo pyaar use apnon se nahi mila, wo usse duniya mein dhoondhta hai. Par kya hai na, ki yeh hai Mirzapur, aur yahan log bas ek mauke ki firaak mein rehte hain, apna fayeda nikaalne ke liye.”

The actor further elaborates on the inner turmoil and conflicts his character faces, hinting at a significant transformation: “Bade aur Dadda bohot samjhaaye, barfi ka dhanda na karne ke liye. Par ye saala ishq aur khud ko saabit karne ki hod, humko le doobi. Soche the Dadda khush honge, kaabil samjhenge humein par… par Chote jo galti kiye wo maafi laayak nahi thi. Chaahte toh nahi the par haalat aise ban gaye ki humein gun uthani padi. Aur fir- Vijay ka kirdaar is baar Chote hai ya Bade, ye toh waqt hi batayega, par itna bharosa zaroor hai ki aapke dil ko bhaayega.”
