Actor Sonal Chauhan is currently winning attention for her role as Mumtaz BB in Mirzapur. The actor revealed that her entry into the popular franchise was a matter of destiny. “When I met my director, Gurmeet Singh, I did not meet him for Mirzapur. It was for something else. In that conversation, he told me that Mirzapur’s casting has been done and they are going on tour soon. Ten minutes into that meeting, he said, ‘Well, actually, you know what, there is this one character which is still remaining.’ So, I honestly feel that it is just destiny, and Mumtaz BB was meant to happen to me,” she recalled.
