Gram Chikitsalay

.. at all. I can't say this enough because anyone who has watched that is certainly going to compare Gram Chikitsalaya with it on some level and they'll end up extremely disappointed.

Gram Chikitsalaya is far more serious, not meant to be as wholesome or even as simple as Panchayat. It is slightly less cheerful and complex. And most of all, it is slow. Agter having watched 5 episodes, I'm not sure if I can identify its genre. In fact, some issues that were raised in earlier episodes are still unresolved, so it's not a "drama of the episode" kind of series either.

It was only after the fifth episode that I could tell that this whole time they were just setting it up. It's too early to tell if this is a good one or not, and that's already saying something.

It may not be compulsory for a series to get you hooked early enough. After all, TVF has earned our trust enough that we could hang on for a few more episodes.

All that said, there's still potential, and once it finds its ground, I'm sure this will be great in its own way.

This is a TVF creation and thus public instantly expects a lot and somewhere they compare it with its blockbuster creation "Panchayat."No matter Panchayat is extremely good but this series "Gram Chikitsalay" is different. At many places you will laugh out loud and at many places you will be emotional. The set up is extremely good,music is good as well as all the actors did very well. Watch it but without any high expectations and also without comparing it with "Panchayat". Both are different and both are entertaining.

The complete series is about a dedicated intelligent doctor who chose to serve the people of a remote village But for him this decision turned out to be a great challenge for him and the story continues as he tries to overcome all his hardships to make his primary health center into a fully functional heath center. Its sweet simple. Definetly it's a one time watch series. Do give it a try. Streaming on amazon prime and it's a prime exclusive.

I was waiting for the series for a week since the time I got to know another TVF series is coming soon, watched the trailer, seemed promising but the show is exactly opposite of it, the story is just like a honeycomb maze and at the end of 5 episodes you'll be left alone questioning yourself.

Im just disappointed, so dont want to write further,

the scenes were set up beautifully, the research part for the show is somehow good, Vinay Pathak, Anandeshwar Dwivedi were great, even Akash Makhija for that matter, they somehow kept me watching till the end, else I would have left the show few episodes earlier.

Amol Parashar was also ok, though I dont think he's much at fault, just the story and the plot didnt make much sense.

I came here to read reviews after watching the show and surprisingly 9, 10 stars, and the language wriiten definitely anyone can figure out are not genuine reviews.

Not bad for a casual watch but not same league as other TVF creations. Pattern is a bit similar to Panchayat with an urban guy goes and stays in village but the main actor (MO) is the worst one. Bad direction too with a supposed intelligent and educated doctor keeps speaking in English with hardcore Bihari villagers (and somehow they understand too !).

Most of the other actors are authentic, and Vinay Pathak is of course Vinay Pathak ! The main actor spoils the feel and sounds and looks stupid in his swanky shoes and sparkling white shirt, lacking acting depth for such a role. Maybe TVF is getting into this trap of trying too many series of very similar nature (refresh your idea bank !!)

Coming from TVF, with village background, Gram Chikitsalaya is bound to be compared with Panchayat. However, it is mediocre at best and not comparable to Panchayat.

1. Characters: The actors were average and left no memorable impression.

2. Story: Unrealistic. An MBBS topper leaving his father's city hospital to join a village PHC to serve the underprivileged is plausible. However, despite free (Re. 1) government service, no villagers even trying it once is absurd.

3. Boring and stretched: Even with only five episodes, it felt boring. The story of the one patient was unnecessarily stretched.

Panchayat, conversely, is excellent, with a great story, characters, actors, and natural entertainment value.
