With the excitement building for the upcoming release of Mirzapur Season 3, actor Anjumm Shharma, known for his role as Sharad Shukla in the series, recently shared insights into his journey and career choices, including a pivotal audition for another prominent show. Anjumm Shharma revealed that earlier in his career, he had auditioned for a significant role in the cricket-based series Inside Edge, produced by Excel Entertainment and streamed on Amazon Prime Video. Reflecting on those days, Shharma expressed a mix of disappointment and gratitude, stating, "I was sad when Inside Edge didn't work out because it was a script I wanted to be a part of." However, fate took an unexpected turn when Shharma was later approached for Mirzapur, another highly acclaimed series under the same collaborative team.

Initially cast in a smaller role in the first season, he was assured by the makers of Mirzapur that his character had the potential to grow significantly if the show resonated with the audience. Trusting the vision of the creators and his own destiny, Shharma took the leap into Mirzapur, a decision that proved fruitful as his character, Sharad Shukla, evolved into a central figure by the second season.
