Panchayat 1 won over the critics, classes and the masses. When Amazon Prime Video announced its original Panchayat’s release on its service in 2020, it marked a shift of narratives amid the OTT world. It was soon after that with the pandemic ongoing, that Panchayat became a nationwide success and went onto break the pattern of dark, dystopian content with its slice of life, comedic storyline where everyone was emotionally residing in ‘Phulera’.
