Series as always scores well on the personal relationships & it's drama; however, this time turns more eventful, concentrating on politics, which feels half-baked, working only in parts… Still finely engaging overall!"

An honest review read, 'Just finished watching Panchayat Season 4. Phulera politics has fully taken over the vibe. Lauki vs pressure cooker, samose diplomacy, and full desi-style election tamasha. The charm of old seasons is there… but only in flashes. Kabhi hasi aayi, kabhi laga yeh thoda zyada kheench diya hai. Still, the cast holds it together beautifully. Still, worth a watch on Prime Video if you're loyal to the world of Panchayat."

Denis Villeneuve to helm next James Bond film for Amazon MGM Studios
Mike Hopkins, head of Prime Video and Amazon MGM Studios, praised the director's appointment: "We are honoured that Denis has agreed to direct James Bond's next chapter. He is a cinematic master, whose filmography speaks for itself. From Blade Runner 2049 to Arrival to the Dune films, he has delivered compelling worlds, dynamic visuals, complex characters, and—most importantly—the immersive storytelling that global audiences yearn to experience in theatres. James Bond is in the hands of one of today's greatest filmmakers, and we cannot wait to get started on 007's next adventure." This will be the first Bond film since No Time to Die(2021), which concluded Daniel Craig's run as the iconic British spy. While no casting or release details have been revealed, with Villeneuve's appointment, the franchise appears poised for a bold and cinematic reinvention.

Panchayat Season 4 Review: Still simple, still sincere — The fourth season delivers more of the same
Story: Election fever grips Phulera as both Manju Devi and Kranti Devi pull out all the stops to win over voters. Meanwhile, Abhishek Tripathi is on edge—worried and anxious about the counter FIR filed against him, fearing it could derail his business school admission. Review: While 'Panchayat' still carries its signature charm and simplicity, it's clear the new season treads familiar ground. The show continues its format of building entire episodes around small incidents, often without contributing to a larger narrative arc. There's little in terms of story progression, but the appeal lies in the mood it creates and the quirks of Phulera's residents. Creative fatigue shows, especially in the fifth episode featuring Manju Devi's father—a subplot that adds absolutely nothing to the story. Yet, the show remains watchable, thanks to its rooted setting and the comfort it offers. Our emotional investment in the characters keeps us going even when not much actually happens. This season opens with Abhishek Tripathi (Jitendra Kumar) under pressure after Bhushan (Durgesh Kumar) files an FIR against him for slapping him. He's visibly anxious that the case could affect his CAT results and ruin his chances at business school. His attempt to apologize doesn't go as planned, and even when accepted, it comes with strings attached. Meanwhile, the ex-MLA, Chandrakishore Singh (Pankaj Jha), scrambles to uncover the shooter who targeted Pradhan Ji (Raghubir Yadav), as he too is implicated. Election fever peaks in Phulera, with Manju Devi (Neena Gupta) and Kranti Devi (Sunita Rajwar) using every trick in the book—from cleaning toilets to distributing free tomatoes—to woo voters. Pradhan Ji's group is dealt a blow when Vikas's (Chandan Roy) property purchase triggers a raid. Adding to the churn, the local MP (Swanand Kirkire) offers Prahlad (Faisal Malik) a ticket after Chandu's removal from the party. Season four centers on the rivalry between the factions of Pradhan Ji and Bhushan. Tensions rise with the approaching elections. Abhishek is assaulted by Chandu's men; Bhushan informs on Vikas, leading to the raid. In a bid to shift loyalties, Pradhan Ji invites Binod for dinner. The season plays out like a series of loosely linked village episodes rather than a tightly woven plot. While this may seem like a flaw, it also allows the show to retain its slice-of-life appeal. The beauty of the show lies in the texture and rhythm of village life it captures, and the show remains grounded in its depiction of a small UP town village. Its biggest strength continues to be its simplicity. Performances remain consistently strong. Jitendra Kumar as Abhishek Tripathi is still chasing his future, battling anxiety about his CAT test results. His slow-burn connection with Rinki (played by Sanvikaa) stays in sync with the laid-back pace of the village. Vikas and Prahlad remain loyal to Pradhan Ji, determined to ensure Manju Devi's win. On the other side, Bhushan, Binod, and Madhav are equally focused on discrediting Pradhan Ji and pushing Kranti Devi forward. The character dynamics haven't changed much, but they continue to feel familiar and engaging. The season ends on an open note, making it unclear whether another one is planned. It could end here, or continue. Despite relying on the same patterns, 'Panchayat' remains a comfort watch. It captures a world where people are driven by genuine concerns—whether it's Bhushan offering to arrange an electrician for the faulty transformer or Abhishek running to get water after Bhushan is injured. The show doesn't aim for grand twists or emotional highs. It's gentle, lived-in, and this season is no different—just don't expect major plot developments.

Breastplates, bralettes: On the red carpet, opt for bold
The red carpet is where fashion truly makes a statement. With the next edition of Bangalore Times Fashion Week coming up this weekend, it's time to gather inspiration from your favourite celebrities. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Get ready to up your red carpet fashion game with bold trends like breastplates, corsets, and bralettes. Breastplate: Once a protective armour piece, the breastplate has evolved into a fashion statement. This torso-covering garment draws its inspiration from ancient warfare. Corset: It is a fitted couture piece designed to enhance a woman's body type and curves, creating a chic look. It is also being reimagined as a modern alternative to a traditional sari blouse. Bralette: What once was an undergarment has now become a bold piece of outerwear itself. It can be easily styled under blazers, sheer tops, or even worn solo, giving it an edgy flair. Saris are re-emerging as a key fashion trend, leading celebrities to experiment with new blouse styles. A corset blouse, in my opinion, tops the list for a striking red carpet appearance – Teju Kranti, stylist Your outfit and you should both go hand-in-hand: Teju Kranti, stylist Celebrities are constantly pushing fashion boundaries, and their latest styling choices offer fresh inspiration, especially for traditional wear. 'The fashion trend is shifting back to saris, prompting celebrities to explore diverse blouse options. For a red carpet look, I believe a corset blouse stands out,' says stylist Teju Kranti. She further emphasises, 'I strongly believe your outfit and you should both go hand-in-hand to uplift each other's beauty. Neena Gupta has always been a fashion icon when it comes to experimenting with clothes; donning a bralette with a kaftan is so interesting. I find the breastplate pretty interesting. It is not comfortable, obviously; but in terms of the look it gives a sneak peek into the future of fashion. It could probably be adapted into more comfortable attire going ahead Alexandra Faye, stylist
