New Delhi:
In the sleeping village of Dhadakpur, where “crime-free” is a situation, the theft of a humble motorcycle creates an uproar like an uproar.
It is the kind of chaos that does not even make local news in most places, but in Dhadakpur, where dowry is still prevalent and the FIR is practically unheard, small crime becomes a spark for a series of incidents that touch large issues of life – aspirations, love, family mobility, and even gender roles.
DupahiyaDirected by Sonam Nair and written by Chirag Garg and Avinash Dwivedi, a bizarre, slightly absurd story, set against the background of rural Bihar, provides both both grounded and freak. This is a story about a stolen motorcycle, but more importantly, it is about those who follow it, trying to balance their traditions and their dreams.
The show introduces us to a light school student Banwadi Jha (Gajraj Rao) in Dhadakpur, whose life is reverse when he stole the motorcycle purchased for his daughter Rosni’s wedding.
It is just not a motorcycle – it is a symbol of their hard work, a dowry means to please the groom and secure the future of his daughter. As Banwari scrambled to recover the bike, the plot provokes to reveal the craze characters of Dhadakpur, who are all trapped in their small webs desire, frustration and knowledge of small towns.
Banwari’s son, Bhoggol (Sparsh Srivastava), a restless youth is dreaming of a life beyond the village, and his friend Amavas (Bhuvan Arora), got caught in the mission to find the missing motorcycle.
The way, they are attracted to the non -equality of village life – whether he is working with Pushpalata (Renuka Shahne), trying to escape from ambitious, sarpanch, or sleep, but fast, police inspector Mithilesh (Yashpal Sharma), adds his own taste to each character Cho.
At its core, the two -wheeler aims to provide a lighthet comedy, spraying in a healthy dose of social comments. On the one hand, the show lies in the traditional village drama, where large themes of dowry, marriage and gender roles are detected through comic lens.
But on the other hand, it affects expectations by presenting moments of self-awareness, especially when it comes to women empowerment.
The daughter Rosi, caught in the middle of chaotic preparations for her marriage, is away from the inactive bride. The story indicates the desire to be free from the boundaries of her small -town life and establishes the stage for the calm rebellion of her character for her own options.
Even his friend Nirmal, a dark -colored girl with social standards of beauty, who combines the layers of social criticism shows that the show moves forward.
Nevertheless, while these subjects of social issues are carefully woven into the story, an indisputable understanding that Dupahiya does not know how to balance them against their comedy. Village fight against tradition – whether it is resistance to dowry or free from old -fashioned gender criteria – is brought with honesty, but it often feels overshraded by the frantic comedy carrying in the center stage.
Many times, humor can feel very forced, especially when the plot slaps and circles in bizarre situations. Dialogues, also, often seem to repetitive, lose their attraction after many uses with catchfrays such as “this is the Belgium of Bihar”.

But there are moments of talent when characters speak more subtle, and humor is allowed to breathe without constant dependence on exaggerated antics.
The biggest strength of the show lies in its performance. Gajraj Rao, the reliable actor forever, impresses Banwari with warmth and honesty, which despite the conspiracy indifference makes his character deeply reliable.
The rest of the artists also gave a strong performance, with the Spars Srivastava’s Bhoggol and Bhuvan Arora’s Amavas offer the correct mixture and the correct heart mixture.
Despite topical strangeness in tone, Dupahiya Still succeeds in making a picture of small town life that feels both familiar and absurd. The show manages to catch a unique mixture of rural attraction, where old and new funny and often collide in a poignant manner.
Writing, while sometimes it is required, is required, it is successful in bringing out the strangeness of their characters, which are often more interesting than the plot. Humor is a mixture of slap and satire, with the show, the fine line is going on between absurdity and heart.
Although it does not always collide with the mark, you have enough intelligence and heat to see, even when the story is in the area to be repeated.
Finally, Dupahiya There is a show that wears its heart on its sleeve, which presents an indifferent glimpse in rural India, while also struggling with real issues that affect its characters. It is a luster, socially conscious comedy that does not take itself very seriously, but does not hesitate to address important topics. However, for all its attraction and ambition, it sometimes struggles to find its rhythm.
A missing motorcycle begins as a bizarre story, some comes up in more complex, but is it successful in balanceing these elements, for debate.
