How to watch Panchayat Season 4 for free in the US without breaking the law, your complete guide
Panchayat, one of the most-loved India-based web series is back with a bang. The fourth season of Panchayat has now been released on Amazon Prime Video, the only streaming platform for this popular web series. But will you be able to watch Panchayat in the US?
Panchayat is a beloved Indian comedy-drama that follows engineer Abhishek Tripathi (Jitendra Kumar) as he navigates life as a secretary in the fictional village Phulera, blending humor with poignant social commentary. Season 4 centers on a heated panchayat election between Manju Devi (Neena Gupta) and Kranti Devi, escalating village tensions while retaining its heartwarming charm. For US viewers, Amazon Prime Video is the only legal platform streaming the series. Support the creators ethically by using the free trial, and enjoy Phulera's chaos in 4K without risking security or breaking laws.
The simplest way to watch Panchayat Season 4 for free in the US is through Amazon Prime Video's 30-day free trial. The entire season, 8 episodes in 4K quality with English subtitles, is exclusively available on the platform.
New users can sign up for the trial, binge all episodes, and cancel before charges apply (regular subscription: $8.99/month post-trial). To maximize the trial, download episodes for offline viewing via the Prime Video app, ideal for avoiding connectivity issues or saving data. Note that the ad-supported tier (Prime Video with Ads) does not offer free trials, so opt for the standard trial for uninterrupted streaming. Episodes release at 8:00 PM ET (5:30 AM IST the next day), perfect for late-night binge-watching.
While Indian viewers access free Amazon Prime via telecom bundles (e.g., Airtel's ₹ 1,199 plan, Jio's ₹ 1,029 pack, or Vi's ₹ 3,799 recharge), these are geo-restricted and unusable in the US. Some users attempt VPNs to mimic Indian locations, but this violates Amazon's terms and risks account suspension. Piracy sites illegally upload episodes but offer poor quality, malware risks, and violate India's Copyright Act (penalties include fines/jail time).
For US fans, the only safe option remains the Prime free trial. Alternatively, split costs with friends via Prime's "Watch Party" feature (If available) or use limited-time promotions like student discounts (if eligible).

Lauren Sanchez's pre-wedding trousseau had an Indian connection; Here's what we know
(Image Credits: Instagram) After weeks of keeping things hushed, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos tied the knot for the second time with American-Mexican journalist Lauren Sanchez in Venice, Italy. The star-studded, high-profile wedding turned out to be the affair of the year, with the bride walking the aisle in a stunning Dolce & Gabbana gown, which was an ode to the 1950s glamour. While the bride's trousseau was carefully followed by the fashion police, she made heads turn with her striking presence in every ensemble, proving her fashion prowess. But what stood out was her choice of accessory – a sleek black clutch from the Indian luxury label Ahikoza by Brham. Lauren carried this satin-crafted signature barrel-shaped clutch with her one-shoulder black sequinned pre-wedding dress. Adding a hint of Indian luxury, this sleek accessory from Ahikoza by Brham was founded by designer Namrata Karad a decade ago. Representing quiet luxury and rooted in the philosophy of understated elegance, this timeless piece made an elegant appearance without looking flashy and had no logos or advertisements, but a regal presence. (Image Credits: Instagram) In a heartfelt LinkedIn post, Namrata Karad's husband, Varun Karad, celebrated this proud moment and wrote, 'I rarely post about fashion, but today, I just have to. My wife, Namrata, founded Ahikoza By Brham, a luxury handbag label, 10 years ago with a bold vision: create timeless pieces that embody discreet luxury. There are no loud logos or billboards. Just elegance, quality, and quiet power.' He further added, 'Her bags have been worn by some of the most iconic names in Bollywood, Hollywood, and the fashion world. But today? Something extraordinary happened. Lauren Sanchez – fiancée of the world's richest man – carried Ahikoza. Think about that: someone who can buy anything in the world chose this bag. That's what true luxury looks like – it doesn't need to be explained. It resonates with those who understand. Most people haven't heard of Ahikoza. That's because it wasn't made for most people. But as Namrata's husband, I've seen the artistry and grit behind every piece – and today, I couldn't be prouder." Lauren Sanchez ditched the heavy accessory road and completed the look with her signature solitaire engagement ring and left her hair down in soft waves. Opting for radiant and sculpted makeup, she added a hint of drama with flushed cheeks and sealed the makeup show with a nude gloss charm. (Image Credits: Instagram) However, this is not the first time that Ahikoza went international, as the brand is quietly building its global reputation and is seen carried by several Hollywood celebrities such as Jenna Ortega, Kate Hudson, Mindy Kaling, Catherine O'Hara, Helen Mirren, and others. As South Asia has such a rich history of craftsmanship, India has been a hub for textiles since ancient times, where the crafts have been developed and refined for thousands of years. This, along with the nation's vast diversity of ethnic groups, makes the journey magical. So much of what we see being made by clothing brands in the West is derived and sourced from here. Jeff Bezos & Lauren Sanchez's Lavish Wedding Plans Unveiled; Here's What To Expect Therefore, when one of us breaks the monotony and represents all at an international level, it is not a moment of triumph just for the brand but for all of us.

'Media would write Sridevis dumb, I refuse to believe that': Poonam Dhillon
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 30 (ANI): Veteran actor Poonam Dhillon, who won countless hearts with her graceful screen presence and ethereal beauty as part of Indian cinema since the late 70s, continues to captivate audiences with her timeless charm. Recently, Poonam sat down with ANI to give a sneak peek into how yesteryear actresses used to behave on and off sets. Poonam quipped, "Oh, I've done that for years. I was this dumb blonde. I didn't understand anything anybody was saying for years and years." She also explained why earlier heroines used to behave in such a manner. And it does make sense. "It was for two reasons. Sometimes if non-veg jokes were being cracked on the set so you didn't sit and guffaw with them. You just pretended you didn't understand only what they've said. So that, you know, that little distance is maintained. Because the moment you start backslapping and cracking non-veg jokes with the heroes, they, in our times, used to think that it's a signal that you are a little more than willing for certain things. So being dumb was very convenient for years," Poonam said. She also talked about how the media had misconceptions about late actor Sridevi. "Sridevi is such a brilliant actor. She cannot be so brilliant if she were dumb. The media would write, 'oh she's dumb. She'll say ask mummy, ask mummy.' I say that's a ploy. She's a very bright and sharp girl. Otherwise, how can she be such an amazing actor? I refuse to believe it," Poonam recalled. Poonam worked with Sridevi in films such as 'Sone Pe Suhaaga' and 'Judaai'. Poonam's films 'Red Rose' and 'Nishana' were also Hindi remakes of Sridevi's notable movies in Tamil and Telugu languages. Opening up about her experience working with the late star, Poonam shared, "I've always been an admirer of her work. I have worked with her in a couple of she was a subdued person." Sridevi breathed her last on February 24, 2018, in Dubai. (ANI)
