Panchayat Season 4: Has been disrupted & not in a good way
The Indian Express recently published a review of the latest season of the popular web series, Panchayat, and the verdict is not exactly encouraging. The review states that the series “loses the plot as politics, polls take over” and that the world of Phulera has been disrupted – and not in a good way.
For those who may not be familiar, Panchayat is a heartwarming and humorous series that follows the lives of a group of people living in the small village of Phulera, in rural India. The show is known for its relatable characters, witty dialogues, and light-hearted take on the challenges faced by the villagers.
The show’s creators had reportedly planned to expand the canvas of the series and escalate the drama in the new season. While this move was initially welcomed, it seems that the execution has fallen flat. The reviewer at The Indian Express notes that the changes made to the narrative have made it tedious and lost the plot.
So, what exactly went wrong?
One of the major issues with the new season is that it has become too focused on politics and elections. The show’s creators had tried to incorporate these elements to give the series a fresh spin, but it seems that they have ended up taking over the narrative. The reviewer notes that the show’s attempts to tackle complex issues like politics and governance have resulted in a disjointed and confusing storyline.
Another problem with the new season is that it has lost its focus on the characters. The show’s strength lies in its relatable and lovable characters, but in the new season, they seem to be taking a backseat to the political drama. The reviewer notes that the characters’ motivations and actions are no longer clear, and their development has been put on the backburner.
It’s not all bad news, though. The reviewer does note that some of the supporting characters have been given more screen time and depth, which is a welcome change. They also praise the show’s attempt to tackle complex social issues, even if the execution is not entirely successful.
Despite its flaws, Panchayat remains one of the most popular and beloved web series in India. Its unique blend of humor, drama, and heartwarming moments has made it a staple in many households.
It remains to be seen whether the show’s creators will be able to course-correct and get the series back on track. For now, fans of the show will have to wait and see how things pan out in future episodes.
