Prime Video has unveiled the trailer for its upcoming original series ‘Dupahiya’ and this rural comedy drama looks fun and entertaining. Created and written by Chirag Garg and Avinash Dwivedi, ‘Dupahiya’ will start streaming on Prime Video from 7th March, 2025.

‘Dupahiya’ trailer begins with Roshni’s marriage being set up with a boy. Her excitement is through the roof since the boy is from Mumbai and after marriage she will be able to fulfill her aspirations of a modern city life. When the to-be-groom demands for an expensive bike with a year’s supply of petrol, despite being hesitant initially Roshni’s father Banwari agrees to giving the “wedding gift”.

But the real trouble starts after the bike has been bought and gets stolen upon arriving in the village. But this theft is troublesome because it comes as a blot to the 25 year crime free history of Dhadakpur which is claimed to be the Belgium of Bihar. Moreover, if reported it would mean loss of trophy, clean water and above all pride for the village.

The suspect includes Roshni’s ex-boyfriend Amavas, who was Naimesh from Dhadakpur years ago for his incessant stealing.but now he seems to the only hope who could procure a second hand bike.
