With its third edition, TVF’s popular series Panchayat made a spectacular comeback. With this, Phulera and its residents made an unforgettable impression with a fresh and experimental approach to storytelling. Though it lacks some of the power of earlier seasons, the third season has many poignant and unforgettable moments. This edition introduces turmoil and unpredictability in a few sequences, but it stays essentially simple like the last two seasons. It also leans more toward drama.
The season also delves into a number of touching stories, including the political conflicts between Phulera West and East, an old woman’s search for a better house for her family, Prahlad’s (Faisal Malik) grief at his son’s martyrdom, and the budding romance between Rinki and Sachiv Ji.
