The Hindi web series Panchayat, created by The Viral Fever (TVF), struck a chord with the audience through its pleasant storytelling, relatable characters, and healthy comedy. The series was recently remade in Tamil as Thalaivettiyaan Paalayam. Now, the Telugu remake has made its way to Prime Video.
Titled Sivarapalli, the Telugu adaptation features Cinema Bandi fame Rag Mayur in the lead role, which was played by Jitendra Kumar in the original. Sivarapalli is directed by Bhaskhar Maurya and written by Shanmukha Prashanth. The series consists of eight episodes and is said to be a frame-to-frame adaptation of Panchayat. Sivarapalli is also produced under the banner of The Viral Fever.
Muralidhar Goud and Rupa Lakshmi reprised the roles that were essayed by Raghubir Yadav and Neena Gupta in the Hindi version. Uday Gurrala, Sunny Palle, and Pavani Karanam played other vital roles. Panchayat is considered an iconic franchise in the Indian web series space, and we need to wait and see how the Telugu version will be received.
