Panchayat Season 5 In The Works? Sanvikaa AKA Rinki Shares Shooting And Release Timeline
Last Updated:
Sanvikaa confirms Panchayat Season 5 is in development. Shooting may begin later this year, with a likely release in mid-2025. Here's what to expect.
Fans of Panchayat were in for a delightful surprise when Season 4 of the much-loved rural dramedy arrived on Prime Video ahead of schedule. Originally slated for a July 2 release, the new season dropped on June 24, sending the internet into a celebratory frenzy. As expected, the trailer's promise of clever humor, grounded storytelling, and deeper emotional threads was fulfilled in full measure.
This season picks up the simmering political tension in Phulera, with Manju Devi (played by Neena Gupta) locking horns with Kranti Devi (Sunita Rajwar), and the budding romance between Rinki (Sanvikaa) and Sachiv Ji (Jitendra Kumar) gaining emotional traction. While familiar faces like Raghubir Yadav, Faisal Malik, Chandan Roy, and Pankaj Jha return to fill Phulera with their warmth and quirks, it's the evolving character arcs that elevate this chapter.
'The process for Panchayat Season 5 has begun," she confirmed. 'Hopefully, maybe by mid-next year or sometime next year, it will be released. And we are likely to begin the shoot for Season 5 maybe at the end of this year or next year. The writing has already started. So once the writing is done, we will start shooting."
With stakes higher than ever in Phulera, viewers can expect a deeper dive into grassroots politics, interpersonal complexities, and more of the show's signature slice-of-life charm. Season 4 sets the tone for a larger narrative shift, teasing greater drama, power plays, and emotional reckonings.
Produced by The Viral Fever (TVF), Panchayat continues to be helmed by writer Chandan Kumar and director Deepak Kumar Mishra, with creative direction by Akshat Vijaywargiya. As always, it remains rooted in authenticity while subtly expanding its canvas—and fan base—with each season.
With Season 4 now streaming and Season 5 already underway, it's safe to say: Phulera is far from done telling its story.

'Panchayat Season 4'
Few can claim to be 'India's most loved show' and get away with it. The Viral Fever's Panchayat is that rare show which does have the bragging rights. Packed with wry observations on everyday life and human behaviour in the hinterland and memorable characters, the Amazon Prime Video series has entered its fourth season, an incredible feat in itself. Actor Neena Gupta credits the writing of Chandan Kumar and the work put in by director Deepak Kumar Mishra. 'Season after season, they do something special. I wait for the script. I don't know how they do it,' she says. 'We don't need to improvise; sab kuchh milta hai [everything's there in the script itself].' She further attributes apt casting for the show's success, which has seen actors become synonymous with their parts, with some even featuring in viral memes (type Binod, Bhushan and Bam Bahadur in Google and get ready for laughs).
