India, May 9 -- TVF's new show Gram Chikitsalay will most definitely give a sense of deja vu for viewers who love Panchayat. These stories of India's heartland, told with a mix of humour and satire, never hurt. I want to see more of them, told with nuance and heart. However, the problems arise when the same template becomes a bit too visible to the eye of the viewer, which is just the case with the new show Gram Chikitsalay. You know how this going to go even in the first episode. That sense of predictability is the main symptom of this new show created by Deepak Kumar Mishra and Arunabh Kumar. Turns out, it is both a blessing and a curse. (Also read: Like MCU, why not a village cinematic universe?: 'Panchayat' director)
