  • The creative team removed the proposed kiss from the final cut and shot a more context-appropriate water-tank scene instead.
  • Jitendra Kumar stressed that consent was secured before the intimacy was proposed and noted the original idea was meant to be “awkwardly funny.”
  • Season 4’s shift toward political drama and slower pacing has divided audiences, with some praising its depth and others missing the earlier humor.
  • TVF and Amazon Prime Video have officially confirmed Panchayat Season 5, with production set to begin in late 2025 for a mid-2026 premiere.
