Directed by Sonam Nair, the series features a talented ensemble cast including veteran actors Gajraj Rao and Renuka Shahane, as well as emerging stars Bhuvan Arora, Sparsh Shrivastava, Shivani Raghuvanshi, and Yashpal Sharma.
Creators and executive producers Salona Bains Joshi and Shubh Shivdasani, from Bombay Film Cartel, have crafted a script that beautifully blends humor, heart, and the essence of small-town India. The show promises to be both distinctive and universally relatable, showcasing fresh storytelling and female-led productions, in line with Prime Video India’s strategy.
Director Nair describes “Dupahiya” as a celebration of humor, chaos, and the quirks of small-town life, while creators Joshi and Shivdasani highlight its focus on family, fun, and the universal dreams of everyday people.
The series is set to premiere in India and across 240+ countries and territories worldwide on March 7, adding to Prime Video India’s growing collection of originals such as “Paatal Lok,” “Mirzapur,” “Poacher,” and “Indian Police Force.”
