During a light-hearted conversation with the show’s cast, Neena couldn’t help but laugh when a twist from an upcoming episode was mentioned and quipped, “The script has leaked!”‘Who will win the elections?’ Cast teases what’s nextWhile chatting with the team behind Panchayat, IANS brought up the three burning questions fans are most curious about: Who will win the elections? What happens next in Sachiv ji and Rinky ji’s love story? And will Sachiv ji finally crack his government exam?Writer Chandan Kumar responded by adding yet another cliffhanger: “There are three questions, and one more is—who shot Pradhan Ji? So, I think you have to watch the season for all four questions. You will get a lot of answers. And those answers will come with some twists. Some will be straightforward, and some will be twists. And, I think, that will make a good Season 4.”‘The script has leaked!’ says Neena Gupta with a laughWhen asked about the likely winner of the village elections, the response from the interviewer was, “We think Manju Devi will win. But after that, something unexpected might happen.” At this, Neena Gupta burst out laughing and said, “The script has leaked.
