      ‘Takeshi’s Castle, the popular 90s TV game show, is all set to make a comeback as a web show. YouTuber and comedian Bhuvan Bam will be replacing OG Javed Jaffrey as the commentator for the show.

      Amazon Prime Video made the announcement of the Indian reboot of the popular Japanese game show, ‘Takeshi’s Castle’ on September 14. The eight-episode series is all set to stream on the streaming platform soon.

      Talking about being a part of the iconic show, Bhuvan Bam said in a statement, ‘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 any one 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 honor. As an entertainer, my viewers have always appreciated the unique yet relatable characters that I’ve portrayed, and I happy to bring a bit of my creative self as ‘Titu Mama’. I am hopeful that the younger generation will get love this show as much as we did.’

      The show promises to bring back the nostalgia of the 80’s and 90’s, but netizens have expressed how they will miss Javed Jaffrey, the original commentator of the show’s Hindi version.

      One person responded to Prime Video’s announcement tweet and wrote, ‘Javed Jaffrey’s commentary on Takeshi’s Castle was the soundtrack of our childhood. Now, @Bhuvan_Bam steps into the shoes of our beloved commentator. It’s like passing the torch to a new generation of laughter. Can’t wait to see what Titu Mama has in store #TakeshisCastle.’

      Another person wrote, ‘Hoping you catch up Javed jafari iconic commentary on this show.’
