Gajraj Rao, Renuka Shahane, and Sparsh Shrivastava starrer Dupahiya to start streaming from March 7 on Prime Video February 17, 2025 at 03:09PM

Prime Video will premiere its upcoming Original comedy series Dupahiya on March 7. Created and Executive Produced by Salona Bains Joshi and Shubh Shivdasani under their banner, Bombay Film Cartel, the series is directed by Sonam Nair and created and written by Avinash Dwivedi and Chirag Garg. The nine-episode series weaves fun and drama with small-town charm, brought to life by a superbly talented cast, including Gajraj Rao, Renuka Shahane, Bhuvan Arora, Sparsh Shrivastava, Shivani Raghuvanshi, and Yashpal Sharma in key roles. Dupahiya will premiere exclusively on Prime Video in India and over 240 countries and territories worldwide on March 7.

The story revolves around the fictional village of Dhadakpur, which is on the cusp of celebrating 25 years of being crime-free. However, chaos ensues when a coveted Dupahiya (motorbike) gets stolen! With the silver jubilee trophy, a wedding, and the pride of the villagers at stake, what follows is a crazy journey to retrieve the bike before it's too late.

"At Prime Video, we believe that the best stories are the ones that celebrate India’s rich diversity and cultural flavours, and Dupahiya does exactly that. The series beautifully blends humour, heart, and the essence of small-town India in a way that feels both distinctive and universally relatable. With its vibrant characters, unexpected twists, and humorous storytelling—further elevated by the performances of our stellar cast—Dupahiya promises to be an entertaining and heartwarming family watch,” said Nikhil Madhok, Head of Originals, Prime Video, India. “The series also marks the debut of Bombay Film Cartel – a production house founded by Shubh Shivdasani and Salona Bains Joshi. Combined with director Sonam Nair’s expertise, the show is a testament to Prime Video’s belief in providing a platform to fresh storytellers, and a global showcase for stories helmed by women. We can’t wait for our customers to experience this delightful series when it premieres on March 7.”

Sonam Nair, the director of Dupahiya, said, “Bringing Dupahiya to life has been an incredibly fulfilling journey. This series is a celebration of humour, chaos, and the quirks of small-town life, and I couldn’t be prouder of the way it has come together. The incredible ensemble of actors has infused Dupahiya with warmth, humour, and energy, making each character truly memorable and I am certain audiences will enjoy every bit of it as much as we did while making it. I cannot wait for March 7 and for audiences in India and across the world to experience this wholesome package of joy, laughter and aspirations of the many eclectic residents of Dhadakpur!”

“With Dupahiya, we set out to produce a series that is as heartwarming as it is hilarious—a celebration of small-town India and the extraordinary chaos that can unfold from the mundane. This series is about family, fun and the universal dreams of everyday people.” said executive producers and creators Salona Bains Joshi and Shubh Shivdasani. “This would have not been possible without our writers and co-creators, Chirag and Avinash and the wonderful cast and crew, who infused the series with authenticity, humor, and heart. For us, working with Prime Video has been a rewarding experience. Their commitment to diverse storytelling and local narratives allowed us to craft a show that is deeply rooted in the Indian heartland. It is a series we’re extremely proud of and are looking forward to its premiere on Prime Video on March 7.”

Bombay High Court orders stays the release of Hamare Baarah, two days before the film’s release June 07, 2024 at 01:02PM

Hamare Baarah, which is making news for its bold approach and thought-provoking plotline, has been mired in controversy, with the makers landing in deep trouble. The highly anticipated release of Annu Kapoor, Manoj Joshi, and Paritosh Tripathi starrer, has encountered a significant setback as the Bombay High Court has issued a stay on its release just two days before its scheduled release on June 7, extending the hold until June 14. This unexpected turn of events has impacted the premiere of the film which was expected to be held this week, leaving makers in an uncertain dilemma. The legal obstacle arises from a petition filed by activists from a specific religious community at the Mumbai High Court, opposing the film's release. Producers Birender Bhagat and Ravi S Gupta have raised serious concerns regarding the imposition of the stay, especially given that the film had already obtained a censor certificate. In a recent statement given to NDTV, Mr Bhagat explained their predicame...
