Confirming further seasons of the show, Deepak told PTI, “We have started writing season four. For us, generally, there’s no break between two seasons.

For season four, we have a clear idea, and there is a broader idea for season five.”
More about Panchayat
Set in a fictional village of Uttar Pradesh called Phulera, Panchayat revolves around Abhishek Tripathi (Kumar) who happens to be an engineering graduate but because of a lack of better job opportunities takes up the post of a Panchayat office’s secretary.
The director in the same conversation revealed that when they were forming the base of Panchayat’s third chapter, they were "careful not to get swayed by the popularity" of the first two seasons.
"We made sure that we made the right content and retained the core soul of the show. We wanted to take the story forward organically. However, we have to make sure that the new season is more entertaining and emotional," Deepak detailed.
Did you know Panchayat makers were initially unsure of the show’s success?
Mishra further revealed that back in 2020 when the first season aired, they were a little skeptical about what if the content didn’t find its audience. He shared that as the show was in a different space back then, there was a theory about how much will be its acceptability.
“We had put in a lot of effort in the script in terms of creative ideas. So, we had that much confidence that if people watched the entire show, then it would be a hit. But what if they don't watch it? Then, there would be a problem”, Deepak wondered.
