The new Hindi version of Takeshi's Castle will be streaming on Amazon Prime Video on November 2, 2023. The teaser was unveiled today. The popular 80s Japanese game show Takeshi's Castle reboots thirty-four years later with Bhuvan who revives the BB Ki Vines’ popular character Titu Mama. The video opened with Titu Mama, a shoe salesman. Soon, the Yakuza enter the store and abduct him unceremoniously. The teaser then revealed that Titu Mama owes the Yazuka, and the only way to repay the debt, is by voicing the Hindi reboot of the iconic Japanese game show - Takeshi’s Castle.
The reboot of Takeshi's Castle is an eight-episode show.
Sharing the teaser, Prime Video wrote on Instagram, "that wasn’t very professional of them (we’re just happy it's happening) Takeshi’s Castle ft. #BhuvanOnPrime, Nov 2."

In a previous statement, Bhuvan said, "Since the original version of Takeshi's Castle was on television, I have been an ardent fan of the concept, execution and the hilarity of the game show. It’s highly nostalgic for me to have grown up seeing the show and now voicing it, is genuinely a full circle moment. I don’t think there is anyone in my generation who hasn't loved and enjoyed this madcap comedy. Being a part of this incredible game show is a privilege and an honour. As an entertainer, my viewers have always appreciated the unique yet relatable characters that I’ve portrayed, and I am happy to bring a bit of my creative self as 'Titu Mama'. I am hopeful that the younger generation will love this show as much as we did."
Speaking of Takeshi's Castle, the viewers will get to watch over 100 contestants - the "attacking army" - attempt to storm the impenetrable castle, fighting off all kinds of guards, devils, and giant foam mushrooms along the way. Only the bravest and luckiest will make it through to take on Takeshi himself, and potentially bank 1 million yen.
