Panchayat actor Sanvikaa, best known for her role as Rinki in the beloved rural comedy-drama, recently took to Instagram to share a deeply personal and cryptic post that has caught the attention of fans and industry watchers alike. Expressing frustration over not being treated with equal respect, Sanvikaa hinted at the emotional toll of feeling like an outsider in the entertainment world.
“Hanging On…” – A Glimpse into Her Emotional State
In her Instagram Story, Sanvikaa wrote,
“Sometimes I wish I were an insider or maybe from a very powerful background, things would have been so much easier (maybe, I don't know)... The battles would have been lesser. Hanging on…”
Though she did not elaborate on what incident triggered her feelings, the note resonated with many aspiring and struggling actors who often face systemic barriers in the industry.
From Jabalpur to the Screen: Her Inspiring Journey
Born Pooja Singh in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, Sanvikaa left her engineering studies to follow her passion for acting. Starting as a costume assistant, she slowly carved her way into the acting world through auditions and determination. Apart from Panchayat, she has featured in web series like Lakhan Leela Bhargava and Hajamat.
‘Panchayat Feels Like a Government Job’
In an earlier interview with Hindustan Times, Sanvikaa had affectionately compared Panchayat to a government job, stable and dependable.
“It’s a big support system for me,” she said, adding that the show's creators had a clear plan for her character’s evolution from a cameo in season one to a significant role in later seasons.
What’s Next: Season 4 of Panchayat
The much-anticipated Season 4 of Panchayat is set to premiere on June 24 on Prime Video. The new season picks up after a dramatic cliffhanger, where tensions in Phulera escalated into violence. With Pradhanji recovering from a gunshot and Abhishek’s career plans thrown into chaos, the stakes have never been higher. Familiar faces like Jitendra Kumar, Neena Gupta, and Raghubir Yadav will return, promising more drama, politics, and emotional depth.
As fans wait keenly for the new season, Sanvikaa’s heartfelt post is a reminder of the unseen struggles behind the screen—and the resilience it takes to shine as an outsider.
