In the promo, Sharma is seen gearing up for Stranger Things 5 Volume 2.

As his team is seen grooving and relaxing in the locker room, the Hitman of India tells them to get serious. “Listen carefully. The finale is coming,” he tells everyone. Not just your career, your entire life could get flipped upside down.

He goes on to tell his team about the “opposition” and his mind games.

“Opposition can attack from anywhere, through the ground, the wall or even the roof.”

He continues to unveil a special kit for the team as he refers to the character, Steve Harrington (played by Joe Keery) from Stranger Things.
