Panchayat Season 5 Delay Confirmed – If you are a fan of ‘Panchayat’ and were thinking that the fun of Phulera village would return at the end of this year, then there is bad news. The makers have made it clear that ‘Panchayat Season 5’ is not going to be released this year. And this update has been given by none other than ‘Banrakas ‘, i.e. Bhushan Sharma himself.
Banrakas poster and funny caption
A poster was shared by Prime Video on Sunday. In this, Kranti Devi’s husband, i.e. our dear Banrakas (actor Durgesh Kumar) is standing with folded hands wearing a garland of flowers. It is clearly written on the poster: “Panchayat Season 5 will not come this year”. The accompanying caption read, “Regret to inform that the next season of Panchayat is on hold”. Seeing this post, fans were as shocked as Pradhan ji was after the elections in Phulera.

What was expected before?
Let us tell you that in September, director Deepak Kumar Mishra had said in an interview that editing of Season 5 is going on and the release could be around October or November 2026. At that time, everyone felt that the story of Phulera would be seen during Diwali or at the end of the year. But now the makers have made it clear that this will not happen.

What will be special in season 5?
At the end of season 4, Phulera’s politics had completely changed. Pradhan ji and Manju Devi had to face defeat, and Kranti Devi became the new Pradhan. Now, in Season 5, the audience is eager to see how the village arrangements run under the leadership of Kranti Devi and how much the influence of Banarakas increases. The director had earlier also clarified that season 5 is not the last season of the show, so the story will continue further.
So when will it come now?
At present, no official date has been revealed. The makers say that the next season is “imprisoned”, i.e. put on hold. The hope is that now in the next year i.e. 2027, Sachiv ji and the rest of the characters of Phulera village will return. So for now, make do with re-watching seasons 1 to 4 while sipping a cup of tea.
