REVEALED: Shabana Azmi’s character in Dabba Cartel has a Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai connection : Bollywood News-OxBig News Network

The quirky show, Dabba Cartel, was released today on Netflix and it has caught attention due to its plot and solid casting. It features talented and reputed names like Shabana Azmi, Jyothika, Gajraj Rao, Sai Tamhankar, Jisshu Sengupta, Nimisha Sajayan and Shalini Pandey in leading roles. Shabana’s character of Sheila, especially, has been loved. She plays a mysterious woman who looks like a housewife but has a dark past.

REVEALED: Shabana Azmi’s character in Dabba Cartel has a Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai connection

Interestingly, in one of the scenes, she gives a hint about her beginnings and it has a connection with the much-loved film, Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai (2010). In the third episode, Sheila reveals that at one point, she used to work for gangster Sultan Mirza. This is the name of Ajay Devgn’s cult character in Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai. Moreover, Shahida (Anjali Anand) asks, ‘Mumbai mafia waala Mirza sahab?’ while Mala (Nimisha Sajayan) asks, ‘Jispe picture bani thi?’. This further adds to the connection with the film.

However, those expecting Sultan Mirza’s appearance in the flashback scenes of Dabba Cartel will be disappointed. The makers leave it at Sultan Mirza’s mention. Viewers only get to know the time when Sheila left the underworld and relocated with a new identity. Dabba Cartel ends with the promise of a sequel and hopefully, Season 2 will focus more on Sheila’s past life.

Dabba Cartel is the story of a group of women who are compelled to sell drugs while also running a tiffin service. They reside in a society full of employees working for a pharmaceutical company. The company is in deep trouble after they are alleged to have made and distributed a banned drug. The issue comes to the fore due to an unfortunate accident in Amritsar. An honest drug officer and an ambitious cop team up to find the truth, leading to chaos and madness.
