Prime Video sets premiere date for Panchayat 2

After receiving a thunderous response for Panchayat, Amazon Prime Video is now gearing up to launch the second season of the much-loved streaming show. Season 2 of Amazon Original Series will start streaming on Prime Video on May 20, the streamer announced on Monday.

Helmed by Deepak Kumar Mishra, the popular comedy drama series stars Jitendra Kumar, Raghubir Yadav, and Neena Gupta in lead roles. All three actors return to reprise their roles in Panchayat 2. Biswapati Sarkar and Chandan Roy will also feature in important roles.

While Panchayat revolved around the life of Abhishek (Kumar), an engineering graduate, who takes up a job as Panchayat secretary in a remote village of Uttar Pradesh due to lack of better job options, Panchayat 2 will take the audience “through the hilarious and tumultuous journey” of Abhishek and delves deeper into the equation between Pradhan, Vikas, Prahlad and Manju Devi along with Abhishek, who has now settled well into the life of Phulera.     

Amazon Prime Video and The Viral Fever (TVF) join forces again post the success of Panchayat season one and Hostel Daze.
