Panchayat Season 4 might have received a mixed response but Vidhayak Ji’s (played by Pankaj Jha) viral dance stole the show and how. His step with his glasses and banrakas’ (played by Durgesh Kumar) slow-mo dance moves have become the subject of several meme pages. Now, Faisal Malik aka Prahlad Cha has opened up about the time when it was shot and how a choreographer was hired for the scene.
In a conversation with RJ Raunac on his podcast, Faisal Malik shared with a smile. “Vidhayak Ji is champion in himself. He is a great actor. I love him. He hits a sixer every time he enters the frame. Did you see his viral dance? He has shaken the world with his moves.”
He revealed, “There were choreographers hired for the scene. They even did rehearsals. They must have taught them some moves, but I believe 80% of the world was created by these actors themselves.” He added, (Pankaj) Jha Ji is a Kalandar. He is no less. They improvised a lot of things. Their energy felt like it was happening for real. We couldn’t control our laughter throughout.”
Panchayat, first released in 2020, won hearts for its innocence and simplicity. The series followed the story of Abhishek Tripathi, an engineering graduate who gets a low-salary job as a secretary of a Gram Panchayat in a remote village called Phulera in Uttar Pradesh. Unfamiliar with village culture, he explores new stories and characters every day.
After the release of season 4, the makers of the show officially announced the making of season 5. It will release next year.
Panchayat also stars Jitendra Kumar, Neena Gupta, Raghubir Yadav, Sunita Rajwar, Chandan Roy, Ashok Pathak and Sanvikaa Pooja Singh, among others.
