Recently, he had been talking to the lead actor of the same show, Bhuvan Bam. As the conversation progressed, hosted by IMDb, Bhuvan asked if he thought any of the characters from the show deserve a spin-off. After a minute, Jaaved expressed that not just his character, but the iconic Manav Shrivastav-Aditya Shrivastav duo from the Dhamaal series — wherein Manav was played by himself and Adi by Arshad Warsi in all three films — deserved a spin-off.
