Panchayat's biggest secret is out: Not UP's Phulera! Viral photos reveal the real village behind the hit web series
Think
Panchayat
was shot in a dusty little village in
Uttar Pradesh
? Think again! The now-iconic "Phulera" is actually Mahodiya, a real-life village in

's
Sehore district
, and thanks to a viral post on X (formerly Twitter), fans are flocking to find out more.
It all started when a user named Shubhendu, who cheekily claims he doesn't even watch web series, took a detour to Mahodiya and dropped a photo thread that instantly lit up the internet. His snaps from the real Panchayat office (which still proudly says 'Gram Panchayat Mahodiya'), that unforgettable bumpy road, the village temple, library, and even Pradhan Ji's house, sent fans into a frenzy.

Another photo of the hospital was jokingly captioned: 'The Battle of Phulera was fought here,' followed by a wild theory, 'Maybe Pradhan Ji got someone to fire the shot. He's a bit cunning!'
The post has already crossed 1 million views, turning Mahodiya into a fan pilgrimage spot. People flooded the thread with comments like, 'Did you find Vidhayak ka ghar, Sitara, the horse, or BumBahadur's pigeon farm?' and 'What about the famous wall with 'do bache meethi kheer...'?'
