This response excited the fans who are awaiting the mega-crossover of the Kaithi and Vikram cinematic universe.

Is their a possibility of #Bhargav coming back in your multiverse ??
Honest answer only !!!!!,” he wrote.
The recently released Vikram was shown as a plot connected to the 900-kilo drug bust that happened in Kaithi.

Kaithi 2 may explore why Dilli ended up in prison and how did he reach North India upon his release.
