“Aye sasur!” — if this line instantly made you smile, you’ve probably been following Panchayat since Season 1.

After winning hearts with its simple charm, dry humor, and rooted characters, Panchayat is back with Season 4 — but this time, it’s not all laughs and lauki.

From secret men’s group chats to political pressure cooker showdowns (literally), things in Phulera have taken a serious turn. But has the show managed to balance comedy with its growing political plotlines? Or is the spark fading?

Let’s dig into what’s cooking in Phulera — and whether it’s still worth a watch for Panchayat lovers and first-timers alike.

Panchayat Season 4 review

Release Date Of Panchayat Season 4

The highly anticipated season 4 of Panchayat premiered on Amazon Prime Video on the morning of June 24. Shortly after the series premiered on OTT, fans and viewers swiftly expressed their opinions about the comedy drama web series featuring Jitendra Kumar.

Panchayat Season 4 Humor

Although the darker tone of the third season split fans, Panchayat aims to strike a balance in Season 4 by reintroducing some elements of its distinctive humor. Sachiv Abhishek (Jitendra Kumar) gets an informal "Hi" from Pradhan ji in their men's group chat—an unmistakable cue to meet for drinks, complaints, and playful conversation.

The inclusion of Ram Gopal Bajaj as Pradhan ji’s father-in-law enhances the humor, particularly when Pradhan ji nonchalantly utters his well-known "Aye sasur!" phrase in front of his actual father-in-law. Faisal Malik, playing the role of Prahlad-cha, maintains a layered performance, with his sporadic laughter providing moments of lightness amid the sorrow of losing his son, a soldier, in Season 2.

Twitter Reviews

A Panchayat Fan wrote, “This time Phulera is more about Politics than comedy but the best thing is makers are not scared to go forward in terms of storyline.

Another user commented - Panchayat Season 4 is weak as compared to its previous seasons.

While some users say, Panchayat's latest season is set up with less humour. 

Manju Devi’s Lauki VS Kranti Devi’s Pressure Cooker

The emblematic conflict between Manju Devi’s lauki (bottle gourd) and Kranti Devi’s pressure cooker escalates, showcasing the gritty, personal dimensions of village politics. Kranti Devi (Sunita Rajwar) even resorts to circulating false rumors about Khushboo (Tripti Sahu), the wife of Vikas (Chandan Roy), causing emotional distress and the need for damage control. In the meantime, toilet humor resurfaces as both sides utilize Swachh Bharat themes in their election strategies.

Should You Watch It?

For longtime Panchayat enthusiasts, the familiar village backdrop and ensemble cast make Season 4 worth watching, even with the increased political themes and somewhat lessened appeal. Casual viewers attracted by its popularity might perceive the new season as a mixed experience.

As Abhishek’s friend tells him in the initial episode, "Don’t worry, everything will turn out okay"—maybe the show's creators are providing the same comfort as they prepare for Season 5 and the upcoming developments in Phulera’s intricate political landscape.

Even with its shift in tone, Panchayat Season 4 holds onto just enough of its old flavor to keep fans hooked — especially with Season 5 already being hinted at.
