ETimes reviewed the latest season,“Season four centres on the rivalry between the factions of Pradhan Ji and Bhushan.

Tensions rise with the approaching elections. Abhishek is assaulted by Chandu’s men; Bhushan informs on Vikas, leading to the raid. In a bid to shift loyalties, Pradhan Ji invites Binod for dinner.

The season plays out like a series of loosely linked village episodes rather than a tightly woven plot. While this may seem like a flaw, it also allows the show to retain its slice-of-life appeal. The beauty of the show lies in the texture and rhythm of village life it captures, and it remains grounded in its depiction of a small UP town. Its biggest strength continues to be its simplicity.”
