Call it a funny coincidence. The makers of Panchayat didn't purposefully intend to have their third season, one revolving around panchayat polls, release in the midst of a general election. The new season drops on Amazon Prime Video on May 28, and since there's plenty of politicking, it isn't always a pretty picture. "It is out-and-out about political rivalry," says series director Deepak Kumar Mishra. "You've seen a sweet Pradhaan, but election hota hai, to leaders ka face bilkul badal jaata hai [come election time, people change." And, unlike last season, which ended on a surprisingly gut-punching note, this time around, there'll be no need for tissues, assures Mishra. "Khoob hasaaoonga (I'll make you laugh). Expect fun, political drama and emotions."
