Panchayat Season 5 Shooting Plans Teased

Speaking exclusively to Pinkvilla about the new season, Mallik said, “Abhi toh shooting hoga. Shooting ke baad hi samajh lijiye, 1-1.5 saal. Abhi toh likh rahe hain kamre mein baith ke. Scientist ek saal ke baad hi script dete hain. Shooting agle saal ho jaayegi, par release Amazon Prime pe depend karta hain.” (The shooting is yet to happen. Once it's done, it'll take around one to one and a half years. They're currently writing the script behind closed doors. The scientist takes a year to come up with a script. Filming will happen next year, but the release depends on Amazon Prime.)

From Big Screens to Small Villages

Faisal Mallik, fresh from his recent appearance in Thamma alongside Ayushmann Khurrana, Rashmika Mandanna, and Nawazuddin Siddiqui, is now turning his attention back to Phulera. With the original ensemble returning, fans can expect the same heartfelt humor and slice-of-life charm that made the series a hit.
