Gram Chikitsalay

.. at all. I can't say this enough because anyone who has watched that is certainly going to compare Gram Chikitsalaya with it on some level and they'll end up extremely disappointed.

Gram Chikitsalaya is far more serious, not meant to be as wholesome or even as simple as Panchayat. It is slightly less cheerful and complex. And most of all, it is slow. Agter having watched 5 episodes, I'm not sure if I can identify its genre. In fact, some issues that were raised in earlier episodes are still unresolved, so it's not a "drama of the episode" kind of series either.

It was only after the fifth episode that I could tell that this whole time they were just setting it up. It's too early to tell if this is a good one or not, and that's already saying something.

It may not be compulsory for a series to get you hooked early enough. After all, TVF has earned our trust enough that we could hang on for a few more episodes.

All that said, there's still potential, and once it finds its ground, I'm sure this will be great in its own way.

Anwar Says: Another tvf creation after Panchayat with different intent and plot. In the former, we see reluctance to settle the lead in a village, here it is willingness. An honest try to show the truth of PHC In village but a bit exaggerated. The series could not take off because of its sloppy writing and murky pace.

Amol Parashar as Dr Prabhat carries his emotions well. The compounder Puthani -Anandeshwar Dwivedi gave a solid performance. But the standout is Indu played by Garima Vikrant Singh , the depth of her character for her son and Bairagi husband is the sound feature of the story. Vinay Pathak as quack couldn't be exploited. Village elections sequences and characters were hardly funny and were unrealistic. Cinematography and the actual settings of a fictional village of Jharkhand are worth mentioning.

Some of the issues are unresolved like the contents of letter of CMO and what happened to Sudhir, the vanished vaccines,I am expecting the second season, which I hope will be more crisp.

At first glance, this series felt like pure entertainment - quirky characters, sharp wit, and just the right amount of chaos to make you binge three episodes without noticing the time. It was fun, even silly at times, and I honestly thought it would stay in that lane. But then, it did something rare: it shifted gears, and it did it perfectly.

Somewhere between the laughs and drama, the show took a hard turn into something real. It started tackling a very specific, very necessary aspect of our society - all through the lens of medicine. It wasn't preachy or overly sentimental. Instead, it exposed how the healthcare system fails people - not in broad, abstract ways, but in detailed, painfully accurate terms. It showed what doctors really face behind closed doors, what patients are forced to endure, and how policies, biases, and broken systems shape real lives.

Not bad for a casual watch but not same league as other TVF creations. Pattern is a bit similar to Panchayat with an urban guy goes and stays in village but the main actor (MO) is the worst one. Bad direction too with a supposed intelligent and educated doctor keeps speaking in English with hardcore Bihari villagers (and somehow they understand too !).

Most of the other actors are authentic, and Vinay Pathak is of course Vinay Pathak ! The main actor spoils the feel and sounds and looks stupid in his swanky shoes and sparkling white shirt, lacking acting depth for such a role. Maybe TVF is getting into this trap of trying too many series of very similar nature (refresh your idea bank !!)

I was waiting for the series for a week since the time I got to know another TVF series is coming soon, watched the trailer, seemed promising but the show is exactly opposite of it, the story is just like a honeycomb maze and at the end of 5 episodes you'll be left alone questioning yourself.

Im just disappointed, so dont want to write further,

the scenes were set up beautifully, the research part for the show is somehow good, Vinay Pathak, Anandeshwar Dwivedi were great, even Akash Makhija for that matter, they somehow kept me watching till the end, else I would have left the show few episodes earlier.

Amol Parashar was also ok, though I dont think he's much at fault, just the story and the plot didnt make much sense.

I came here to read reviews after watching the show and surprisingly 9, 10 stars, and the language wriiten definitely anyone can figure out are not genuine reviews.
