00:24I hope that you know, the response is amazing.
00:26One thing missing is Tanki.
00:28Why did you remove the trailer from Tanki?
00:30Is it Tanki?
00:32No, it's very nice.
00:34You can't see it there,
00:36but it's very nice.
00:38Tanki, no one can remove it.
00:40Tanki cannot go anywhere.
00:42So, we tried our best.
00:44And now,
00:46it's a trailer, the show is complete.
00:48So, you will see Tanki in every scene.
00:50And Tanki's guest appearance,
00:52it's better to see the show.
00:54Yes, because we saw Loki,
00:56I saw Loki in the trailer,
00:58but I didn't show Tanki,
00:59so I will see it again.
01:00And then, I won't see it again.
01:01That is where this question is.
01:02No, it's good.
01:03Okay.
01:04Third question is from Nina Ma'am.
01:06Ma'am, you have ruled television in the 90s.
01:10Long format,
01:11you have done a lot of work.
01:12After that,
01:13the films, obviously,
01:14you have done the best of the roles.
01:16But these four seasons,
01:18it's like you are doing some other work,
01:21and then you break,
01:22and then you come back.
01:24So, I just want to understand,
01:26you are used to the long format,
01:28but does this make any difference?
01:31It affects that you are doing films,
01:33you are doing other series,
01:35and then you are coming back again and again.
01:37So, it's like,
01:39it's like,
01:40it's like it's home,
01:41it's coming home.
01:43only in the language that is changed in a little bit
01:47it is important for us to be able to improve the language
01:50and around me there are some actors like Raghuveer
01:55who is very familiar with that dialect
01:58there is no problem with that
02:00it's like it's home, it's coming home
02:06Surita Ji, this question is that this time
02:10I think it will be a place to live in the country
02:13and I know the writers and directors
02:16so I think you have witnessed the panchayat election
02:21and that is how it comes so nicely on the screen
02:25Have you ever witnessed panchayat election?
02:28Have you ever seen that panchayat election?
02:31No, I was not in the city
02:36so there was no election like that
02:39I have never seen it before
02:41and I have witnessed this panchayat in the first time
02:45I think in election mostly
02:47the pattern that follows
02:49either it is in the city or in the city
02:52the pattern of campaigning
02:54there are promotions, posters
02:56it is somewhat similar
02:58but in the panchayat
03:00there are some little nuances
03:02that we wanted to tell about it
03:04there is no other information
03:05the panchayat has been on the city
03:06another thing that is mostly
03:09not the city bride
03:11there is a lot of money flows
03:13i mean, the same thing that says
03:14many of the money flows, they are also
03:15money flows in every village
03:16I think the money flows in everything
03:17I think the penalty for panchayat
03:20is valid in any election level
03:21i think panchayat is valid
03:22and there are actually a lot of things that are in the mix. We covered some of the things, mostly our characters and dynamics and how we talk about each other.
03:37We try to focus more on that and some of the nuances we have taken in the local elections.
03:44So, coming back to Sachiv ji, we have seen that in today's time people say that they can't register the characters but you have done two such shows, one is Kota Factor Jutu Bhaiya and another is Sachiv ji.
04:07So, when you go out, when you go out, who names? If people address their characters, who names?
04:15I think Jutu Bhaiya is a little bit more popular but they mix. They mix both worlds.
04:21If someone wants to talk about something, he calls me Jutu Bhaiya but he asks, Jutu Bhaiya, will he grow up or not grow up?
04:28So, they mix both worlds. So, I think both of them are hangover.
04:32But because Jutu Bhaiya is a lot easier, they call their names.
04:38What do you like Jutu Bhaiya?
04:41Nothing, Jutu.
04:43No, this is a question. The director has asked, so actually I was thinking about it.
04:48So, what is your personal choice?
04:51To choose both characters is very difficult because both are different.
04:56But, if you are going to come to the 24th of June, Sachiv ji is my favourite.
05:01Neena ma'am, actually, there are a lot of shows. I think panchayati is the only show, at least according to me, which I think that class and mass, they appeal both.
05:17So, I think this is the only show. So, when you go out, you have comments, which kind of comments you get, reactions and all that.
05:35So, first of all, I said that the most people know from two things.
05:42After one choli, one panchayat.
05:44Today, what is my procedure, it is only from panchayat.
05:51Every place, wherever I go, even abroad, if I go, people talk about panchayat.
05:58When it comes, everything is good. So, this is great.
06:02So, after abroad, you haven't said that.
06:05Obviously, the Indians are there.
06:08There are a lot of reactions.
06:09There are a lot of reactions.
06:13Because, you know, the global platform, Amazon is a global platform.
06:18So, do you think that someone who is our country's name has seen this panchayat?
06:23No, I don't even think that.
06:25This is Dabu Sir's words.
06:26The last time he went somewhere to London, I think.
06:30So, he told a story that his guide didn't know that panchayat is famous.
06:35So, they took him to a place and there, a lot of people told him that this is the actor.
06:43So, the guide got to know that this is the show.
06:46Then, his behavior, the guide's behavior changed for him.
06:49So, he said that I have taken a lot of advantage.
06:52Free ride.
06:53Free ride.
06:54And he was very happy with them for the rest of his trip.
06:59So, we want to know that in this season, there are some questions.
07:06One is obviously, who will win Chunao.
07:09The second is that Sashiv Ji and Rinki Ji's love story will come up.
07:13And the third is that Sashiv Ji will crack the NBA.
07:17So, if you put some progress on that.
07:20And the third is that Sashiv Ji will win Chunao.
07:24So, I think that's the 4th of the season.
07:27So, the 4th of the season is covered.
07:29And we will get a lot of fun.
07:31And those answers will come with some twists.
07:36Some twists will come with some twists.
07:39And I think that will be a good season 4.
07:43So, what do you think, who will win Chunao?
07:49I also think that you will win Manju Devi.
07:54But after that, something can happen.
07:58Or this also can happen.
08:00That he will win.
08:01And with that, there will be some kind of appeal.
08:05And after that, there will be a twist that you will win.
08:09You will have to be a script leaked.
08:11What about the season?
08:12Don't do it.
08:13The script leaked.
08:14The script leaked.
08:15The script leaked.
08:16No, it's not leaked.
08:18It's very obvious.
08:19Because that's what happens in reality.
08:22It's interesting.
08:23So, the script leaked.
08:25Like I said, when I'm talking to my head, it's gone.
08:28It's very obvious.
08:29So, as a writer, you feel like when you write plots in the story,
08:34that it's very obvious.
08:36Now, where do I get from?
08:38Where do I get from?
08:39Where do I get from?
08:40Because, you know, most of the web series that comes on screen,
08:43when it comes to online trolling,
08:45they say that the script has been released.
08:47You know?
08:48I mean, I'm talking about a lot of series.
08:50And now, recently, it's a very expensive series.
08:52For that, especially, there's a lot of comments.
08:54So, how do you make this?
08:56I mean, how do you start?
08:57I don't think it's obvious.
08:59I'm scared.
09:00I'm always scared.
09:01I'm saying that it's obvious.
09:02Because then, you know, you can take all the films,
09:04you know, you'll get the last medal.
09:06Right.
09:07So, genre, thriller and suspense.
09:09I don't have suspense.
09:10Yeah.
09:11So, in the midst of that obvious,
09:13how much you want to write and show on screen,
09:16I think the matter is that you're showing.
09:18How much you want to make it?
09:19How much you want to make it interesting?
09:21Yes.
09:22How much you want to make it interesting?
09:23And if you don't make it obvious,
09:24how much you want to make it interesting?
09:25I think how much you want to make it interesting?
09:27I think the matter is that it's more important than it is.
09:30I don't mind.
09:31You said that when people go outside,
09:32people ask about Sachiv and Rinki.
09:33So, where do you have to solve your questions?
09:34What was your answer?
09:35No, yeah.
09:36People ask this question.
09:37Mic.
09:38Yeah, sorry.
09:39People ask that, Sachiv ji,
09:40what is going on with Rinki?
09:41What will you see this time?
09:43And what will you see?
09:44No, yeah.
09:45People ask that question.
09:46Mic.
09:47Yeah.
09:48People ask that, Sachiv ji,
09:50what will you see Rinki?
09:51When will you see this time?
09:52And how much?
09:53But,
09:55I don't bother the question.
09:58It's very happy that people appreciate the thing
10:01and are watching the whole season.
10:04And hopefully,
10:06in this season,
10:07the story of the two of them will come up
10:09and the audience will answer their question.
10:11What is going on with the track?
10:12You have also,
10:13I mean,
10:14in a career of like 8-10 years,
10:16if I'm not wrong.
10:17So, you have done a lot of films and series.
10:20The love story is one of the plot.
10:23So,
10:24this is a lot of people's opinion that this is a love story
10:29that today's audience is missing.
10:32You know,
10:33love stories are not happening today.
10:35So, today's audience is missing.
10:37So,
10:38you have got some reactions to this,
10:40and what is your opinion?
10:42What is your opinion?
10:43What is your opinion?
10:44That nowadays,
10:45there are modern love stories.
10:46You know,
10:47when they say that the first day,
10:48first time they meet,
10:49they go for one night stand.
10:50Or this love story,
10:51which school you belong to.
10:52What is your opinion?
10:53I think that,
10:54yes,
10:55when someone comes to love,
10:56there is a little confusion.
10:57I should express this,
10:58I should not express this,
10:59I should not express this,
11:00I should not express this,
11:01I should not express this,
11:02I should not express this.
11:03So,
11:04in any kind of era,
11:05we live in this country,
11:06so,
11:07when someone comes to love,
11:08then we also come with this confusion.
11:10But,
11:11life is very fast.
11:12There is social media,
11:13there is Instagram,
11:14there is a little pace,
11:16there is no match up with that.
11:19So,
11:20that's why,
11:21the story of this story
11:22may be more people like this,
11:23or people want to say,
11:24yes,
11:25it seems exciting
11:26when they are watching this story
11:27in the panchayat.
11:28Meena,
11:29last question.
11:30Okay.
11:31I follow you on social media,
11:36I see that you are a little busy in your personal life,
11:41you are a little busy,
11:42so,
11:43how did you balance this,
11:44how did you balance this,
11:45how did you balance yourself,
11:46your personal and professional,
11:47because I know you have to give a lot of time also to your,
