“Going to that village is always a good feeling. It is a different experience as the chances of getting to shoot in a real village are rare,” also said Kumar.

Also, in an exclusive interview with Firstpost, Deepak Kumar Mishra , the director of the show, said, “Not only the story, but even the world of the show has evolved a lot over the years. Panchayat is facing very different kind of situation in this season. Every character of the show has evolved a lot. Raghubir Yadav’s character is very fatherly who wants every person in the village to be settled. Neena Gupta’s character has evolved a lot, and Faisal Malik has transformed from comedy to drama. This is an evolution that will keep happening on every state of the story.”

He added, “In this season, you are going to see a very different kind of face of the village of India. This is the face where the democracy is developing itself on the grass root level. You won’t require any tissue papers in this season. There’s no crying or whining this time. There is a lot of fun to be had in this season with situational humor; but that situation is also very haunting at many places.”
