Panchayat director Deepak Kumar Mishra discussed some of the possible plot twists in season 3 of this much-anticipated series. After the Amazon Prime Video series’ trailer got out the director spilled some beans about the plot. The story of the series centers around Abhishek Tripathi played by actor Jitendra Kumar who is an engineering graduate due to the lack of a better job option he joins as the position of secretary of a panchayat office in a remote village named Phulera in Uttar Pradesh. Let’s check out the complete details of this story.
Deepak Kumar Mishra said Neena Gupta‘s character Pradhan ji’s position is in danger
The director said in an interview with The Indian Express, “It feels good that people are still watching the show and I hope they keep watching it till the tenth season. But when I see people’s excitement I start feeling a kind of responsibility about how I’ll take the story ahead in a way that the viewers stay excited for every season that drops. So, it is a responsibility for me.”
“I feel being organic is of utmost importance when I am telling the story. Anyone can create a mix bag of emotions by writing two jokes and then following up the comedy with an emotional scene. But it is important how these two jokes organically lead to the scene. Because without that, you’ll not feel the emotions behind the mixed bag. So the biggest challenge for me has been to come up with ways to lead the story organically, especially because it is slow-paced. In the world of Panchayat, if something happens, it is important to see how the characters react, and it has to look and feel very real because that’s the way people have attached themselves to the show,” Deepak continues.
After the finale of season 2 ended in a cliff-hanging note the fans have started predicting the changes in this season. As for the maker, the new season won’t be anything like the earlier one as he hinted that Pradhan ji will face some serious challenges to retain her position.
He continues, “While writing the new season, our first thought was that it should not be anything like the second season. We’ve been telling the story for over five years now so it has to have an organic route ahead. It is high time that someone challenges Pradhan ji. So we decided that this season will be a prelude to the elections.”
He added, “While writing, all the while, we kept feeling how Pradhan ji’s character has become so popular so who’ll be able to bring her down and how. Who would be able to challenge her, so we needed instances to shape the rivalry.”
For now, the fans have to wait till May 28th.
