Amrapali Dubey reality show promotion and personal struggles

Overview

On 25 July 2026, Bhojpuri film star Amrapali Dubey announced in promotional material for the upcoming family-reality series ‘Bhojpuri Bawaal’ that she wishes to become a mother. Describing the decision as potentially the biggest in her life, the 39-year-old actress expressed uncertainty regarding how her family and fans might react. The series is scheduled to premiere on 2 August 2026 on JioHotstar and Colors TV.

Later that day, a separate promo showed Dubey with co-star Nirahua, in which her mother advised her to ‘work a little bit on her health.’ Dubey became visibly upset and tearful, stating she is exhausted by constant weight-related comments. The clip went viral, sparking discussions about body-shaming in the entertainment industry.

Following the show’s release, episodes featured other industry figures, such as Pawan Singh, discussing their professional lives. Dubey continued to address her emotional distress regarding her fitness and weight. She noted that she feels hurt by such remarks, particularly as she already faces constant trolling on social media regarding her body. She emphasized her expectation that her home should serve as a comfort space where she is not subjected to criticisms of her physical appearance.

During an 18 August 2026 episode of ‘Bhojpuri Bawaal’, the conversation shifted toward motherhood and adoption. In a lighthearted moment, Dubey jokingly proposed marriage to actor Pawan Singh, suggesting they could marry so they could raise an adopted child together. While the exchange caused a stir on social media, it was characterized as a playful interaction between the two close friends, with Singh reacting with surprise.
