The biggest confusion for us in 2024 was only one thing — whether to watch Panchayat Season 3 or Mirzapur Season 3 first. We had to pick one. And believe me, after finishing Panchayat Season 3, if I give you an honest one-line review, it feels less like Panchayat Season 3 and more like Mirzapur Season 3. You’re probably wondering how that’s possible. Boss, this time a lot of unexpected things happen in Panchayat, things you wouldn’t have even dreamed of.

Overview
After seeing the ending of Season 2, you must have thought that feeling such strong emotions again in any show would be impossible. But boss, the climax of Panchayat Season 3 is literally a hundred times more intense than that. I’m telling you, Panchayat Season 3 have even crossed the level of Mirzapur. What happens in the last 20 minutes of the final episode is true cinema. Not exaggerating — it will remind you of Anurag Kashyap’s Gangs of Wasseypur.
TVF’s second name is “Emotions”. They know exactly how to show real life on screen, and this time too they have done just that. In real life, not everything is always perfect. Sometimes, impossible challenges come, and that’s what will make Panchayat Season 3 special. For the first time, you will actually search for the show’s ending explanation on Google. Along with emotions, you’ll have to use your brain for suspense and thrill too.
And the best news is — Panchayat Season 3 is not the final season. After the climax, one thing is 101% confirmed: Panchayat Season 4 is coming soon. Boss, this time there are 8 episodes, each 35–40 minutes long. You’ll need to sacrifice about 6 hours to binge-watch the whole show. The story picks up exactly where it left off. Watching the first scene itself, you won’t feel like two years have passed since Season 2.
What’s new this time? Compared to Season 2, Panchayat Season 3 has less family drama and dives deeper into politics. In the previous seasons, you were introduced to the people of Phulera village, but in Panchayat Season 3, the village itself becomes the main character. And for the first time, not just good people but a whole army of villains will enter the show, led by the MLA, whom you already know well.
The MLA’s character was barely used last season, but this time all complaints will be solved. He alone will overpower the entire cast. Honestly, they should rename Panchayat to Mirzapur because the battle between the MLA and Phulera village is going to be no less than a world war.
Do you think someone can go to jail over a bottle gourd? Sounds funny, right? But in Panchayat show, it’s going to be a very serious matter. That’s the difference this Panchayat Season 3 — fights won’t be solved by just talking. The show will start and end with real confrontations. That smile you saw on Prahlad Chacha’s face in the trailer, which made all of India happy, you have no idea what struggles will happen before reaching that moment.
That’s exactly how the entire show feels — on the surface it’s all smiles and jokes, but deep inside, there are fierce battles where life will be at stake. You’ve all watched DDLJ — now get ready for SRLJ, where Sachiv Ji will finally take Rinki away. Just know, what fans were hoping for has finally happened.
And listen, after Pathaan and Jawan, you might think Shah Rukh Khan’s comeback was the biggest in the world. Wrong. If you’re not happier for Damad Ji’s return than you were for Shah Rukh Khan, then that’s just embarrassing. Damad Ji’s character is literally the X-factor of the show.
You know why shows like Panchayat feel different from Bollywood movies? Because there are no typical heroes or heroines. Any character can become the most important at any time. It’s a complete team effort, where Sachiv Ji and Pradhan Ji may lead the story, but Prahlad Chacha and Vikas might become the real stars of the season. That’s the power of this show.
When the whole world is rushing towards the cities, Panchayat tells such beautiful stories from a small village that after watching Season 3, if you ever get the chance, you’ll want to leave everything and buy a small one-room house in Phulera village.
They didn’t leave even a single mistake. They made it totally different from Season 2 — not showing what sells, but creating content so good that it deserves to be sold. Especially the last three episodes have such unbelievable twists and turns that you’ll keep asking yourself if you’re still watching Panchayat. Creating such relatable characters, especially Prahlad the star, Sachiv Ji with Rinki, and the MLA versus the Pradhan — all of it will stay in your mind even after the show ends.
Without big budgets, without any famous actors, just with strong writing and talented performers, they made India’s most loved show. Writer sir, please accept my salute. And finally, emotions will feel completely real and natural — you won’t just see them, you’ll feel them deep inside. Adding suspense into that — wow.
So boss, whatever movie or series you have watched till 2024 — keep everything aside. Panchayat was, is, and always will be Number One.
