    Another gem fron TVF

    This is the show that puts a smile on your face as you watch it. You get in love with each and every character of the show. At the end, I felt eight episode were not enough. Will wait for season 2.

    Subtle, soft and hard hitting

    Panchayat is a very carefully crafted piece of work. For someone who has been in touch with the rural life, I can vouch that the whole setup seems quite natural and not at all forced. The gradually evolving chemistry between the characters lays out in front of you a beautifully woven & intricate fabric of the society, where you see the vulnerability of a common man. The occasional emotional outburst, disappointment, standing up for the other fellow and that innate innocence of every character doesn't stop short to bring out a smile on your face. On the other hand it brings to surface the subjects like class divide, dowry, gender inequality, population control, flexible morality and many such aspects. The makers looked conscious of keeping the plot and the story line tight and avoided needless stretching of subplots. One of the best webseries' produced in recent times. A must watch.

People who want to take a break from dark, crime, suspense, thriller, patriotism genres...this one is for you. Right now. The casting couldn't have been more perfect.Jeetu bhaiyya,Raghubir Yadav sir and all the supporting cast.Bravo👍

    Exploring Village Serenity, Simplicity: Light Comedy at its best

    Amidst the busy urban life, characterized by chaos and stress, there exists an innate desire for the tranquility of rural existence, considering the peaceful life in the villages and their rich culture. Although I'm yet to embark on such a journey, my quest of village life led me to Panchayat, nestled in the heart of India.

    This series gracefully unfolds introducing the protagonist's transition from the city life to the charm of village living. Panchayat adeptly captures the essence of village life, portraying the struggles of its warm-hearted inhabitants through a comedic lens. Each episode introduces new challenges and struggles, accompanied by endearing characters that wonderfully won my affection. Themes ranging from politics, hardships and career aspirations, the show beautifully illustrates the villagers' affable demeanor.

    Panchayat undeniably stands out, securing a spot among my top 11 Indian web series. The second season elevates the narrative, delving deeper into emotions, friendships, and love. The cast's performance is commendable, with Jitendra Kumar's portrayal as the protagonist exuding perfection. Equally praiseworthy is Raghubir Yadav's supportive contribution.

    • Trivia
      Chandan Roy who plays the role of Sahayak was earlier selected for a small tertiary character role. And he wasn't confirmed on even that role. Raghubir Yadav had worked with him earlier and requested the director to have a look at his audition. The writer and the director liked him so much that they decided to cast him as a primary character. This is Chandan's debut show.
