After three successful seasons, the much-loved series ‘Panchayat’ is all set to return with its fourth season. As the show marks its five-year journey, the creators have released a humorous announcement video, revealing that the new season will premiere on July 2.

On Thursday, Prime Video shared the video on Instagram, featuring social media influencers like Bhupendra Jogi and Darshan Magdum. Actress Gia Manek, popularly known for her role as Gopi Bahu in Saath Nibhaana Saathiya, added a comedic touch by scrubbing books and mocking the internet’s obsession with Panchayat-inspired memes.

She poked fun at the popular dialogue “Ek-ek chai hojaaye (Shall we have tea together?)”, dismissing it as “just a sentence.”

Actor Jitendra Kumar also appeared in the clip, initially in his Panchayat character Abhishek and later as Jeetu Bhaiya from Kota Factory.

He delivered a witty line: “Don’t chase virality, create a moment,” before teasing the upcoming season’s release. When Gia asked if they could have green tea on a water tank to celebrate the show’s return, he cheekily ran away without answering. The makers revealed at the end of the video that the show is set to premiere on July 2.

The fourth season promises to bring back the charming slice-of-life storytelling fans adore. Viewers can expect more heartfelt moments and humorous twists as Abhishek, Pradhan Ji, and the quirky villagers of Phulera take on new challenges.
