Anupam Mittal takes a spin in Dupahiya as he makes his acting debut
MUMBAI: Anupam Mittal is switching gears from the boardroom to the big screen well, almost. The Shark Tank India judge and entrepreneur is making his acting debut in Dupahiya, Prime Video’s upcoming dramedy, bringing his signature business wisdom to the show’s small-town chaos.
In a recently released promo, Mittal finds himself in the thick of Dupahiya’s central plot, a missing motorcycle that turns an entire village upside down.
