If you loved the slice-of-life charm in Panchayat, Gullak will feel like home. Set in a typical Indian middle-class household, this show follows the Mishra family—parents and two sons—as they navigate everyday joys and struggles. The humor is warm, nostalgic, and incredibly relatable, often making you laugh one moment and tear up the next.

Expect moments that remind you of your childhood, your parents, and the silly yet sweet family banter that defines Indian homes.

⚖️ 2. Maamla Legal Hai

Where to Watch: Netflix

What if the seriousness of courtrooms was replaced by chaos, comedy, and eccentric lawyers? That’s exactly what Maamla Legal Hai delivers. Set inside a Delhi courtroom, this series flips the legal drama genre on its head with its witty writing and quirky characters.

If you’ve ever visited a real court, you’ll laugh even harder—because this is not your average day in court. For Panchayat fans who enjoy satire and realism, this one’s a must-watch.

🚲 3. Dupahiya

Where to Watch: Amazon Prime Video

Hands down the funniest village-based web series you’ll find this year, Dupahiya is set in India's “first crime-free village.” It hilariously explores the community’s quirky residents, their hidden politics, and a family whose story soon becomes the village’s.

Packed with laugh-out-loud moments, Dupahiya is perfect if you enjoy rural humor with a modern twist. This one will definitely make your stomach ache—from laughter, of course.

📚 4. Kota Factory

Where to Watch: Netflix

Produced by TVF—the same minds behind PanchayatKota Factory is a black-and-white dramedy about students preparing for the IIT-JEE exam in the city of Kota. While it's more focused on academics and competition, the series is peppered with dry humor and quirky characters that make it incredibly entertaining.

From awkward friendships to relatable struggles, this show delivers Panchayat-style realness in an entirely different setting.

🎯 5. Aspirants

Where to Watch: Amazon Prime Video

Also from TVF, Aspirants dives deep into the lives of UPSC aspirants, capturing their friendships, heartbreaks, and humorous everyday realities. It may be more dramatic in tone, but the emotional ups and downs are balanced with humor that sneaks up on you.

If you’ve been a student (or still are), this show will take you back—and make you laugh at the madness of it all.

🎬 Final Words

If you thought Panchayat was peak comedy, these shows prove there’s much more to discover in the Indian web series universe. Whether it's the nostalgia of Gullak, the court hilarity of Maamla Legal Hai, or the village madness in Dupahiya, there’s enough laughter here to keep you going until Panchayat Season 4 drops.

So grab your snacks, hit play, and prepare to laugh till your cheeks hurt!
