Best remembered for his character, Liquid, in Pyar Ka Punchnama (2011), which earned him a spot among the most promising newcomers then, Divyenndu has adopted a slow and steady approach when it comes to his films. "I was never in a rush. I was aware that I wanted to be an actor, but I also needed to like what I was doing."

He says that after Pyar Ka Punchnama, which was followed by Chashme Baddoor (2013), he could have taken the easy route of doing similar films. "But it was a conscious decision to show something new to the audience and filmmakers," says the actor, who also featured in Toilet: Ek Prem Katha (2017) and Batti Gul Meter Chalu (2018).
