Heads of State actor Priyanka Chopra and Raghubir Yadav, aka Pradhan ji from Panchayat, recently came together for a promotional video to promote their respective Amazon Prime Video projects.
In the video, Priyanka and Raghubir can be seen talking about their recent releases, Heads Of State and Panchayat Season 4. In his signature style, Pradhan Ji first sought Priyanka’s permission to address her as ‘Priyanka bitiya’. Meanwhile, Priyanka playfully asked Pradhan Ji to send some lauki (bottle gourd) from Phulera, joking that it’s hard to find in New York.
For the unversed, the bottle gourd is an important plot element in the web show Panchayat.
Pradhan Ji also tells Priyanka that the village of Phulera is proud of her. In response, Priyanka shares that she has watched Panchayat Season 4 and calls him the true star of the elections. The clip ends with PeeCee urging audiences in India to watch her film Heads of State.

Reacting to the clip, a fan wrote, “The collab nobody saw coming 😂🔥,” while another added, “John Cena Bhi Pradhan Ji Ka Fan Hai 😂.” A fan also posted, “What a collaboration..Funny and lovely.” “What a surprise,” added another.
While Panchayat stars Jitendra Kumar, Raghibir Yadav and Neena Gupta in the lead roles, Priyanka Chopra’s latest film Heads Of State also stars John Cena and Ibris Elba.
Both Panchayat Season 4 and Heads of State had released to mixed reviews. In his review of Heads of State, SCREEN’s Rohan Naahar wrote, “Directed by Ilya Naishuller, who previously made Hardcore Henry and Nobody, Heads of State is the kind of Prime Video programming that enters your eyeballs, bypasses your brain, and leaks out of your ears.” Meanwhile, an excerpt from Panchayat review read, “It was evident in the previous season that Panchayat was keen on expanding its canvas and escalating the drama. The changes in the tone and feel of the series are more pronounced in the new season. Such changes are welcome as long as it does not make the narrative tedious. However, the dramatic moments don’t translate into a riveting experience.”
