To the world he presents himself as the nephew of the local MLA, a self-styled \"jann neta\" (people's leader) who solves people's problems, while at home he is a jobless man in his mid-twenties with no relation to the politician whose surname he shares. The series follows the situations his lie creates.<sup>[5](https://www.justwatch.com/in/tv-show/chacha-vidhayak-hain-hamare)</sup>\n\nThe supporting cast includes [Zakir Hussain](https://www.edgepedia.org/zakir-hussain) as Rajesh, Alka Amin as Amrita, Kumar Varun as Kranti, Vyom Sharma as Anwar, Venus Singh as Avantika, Abhimanyu Singh as Chachaji, and Gaurav K Sharma as Santosh.<sup>[5](https://www.justwatch.com/in/tv-show/chacha-vidhayak-hain-hamare)</sup> In the first season, Anwar and Kranti consider Ronny their leader without knowing the truth, Avantika is occupied with her ex, Ronny's sister suspects his lying, and only his mentor Santosh Bhaiya knows the secret.<sup>[7](https://www.tvguide.com/tvshows/chacha-vidhayak-hain-humare/1030372779/)</sup>\n\n### Seasons\n\n**Season 1 (2018).** The eight-episode first season aired on Prime Video from May 18, 2018, and followed Ronny's misadventures as his fabricated family connection to the MLA trapped him in one situation after another.<sup>[1](https://www.moviefone.com/tv-shows/chacha-vidhayak-hain-humare/cbpYMtvmBd8i4NKt48Lvg1/)</sup> [The Indian Express](https://www.edgepedia.org/the-indian-express) review described it as an exaggerated version of Khan's stage act built on his \"Sakht Launda\" persona.<sup>[3](https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/web-series/zakir-khan-chacha-vidhayak-hain-humare-5206564/)</sup>\n\n**Season 2 (2021).** Prime Video released the second season's trailer in March 2021. The first season had ended with Ronny's lie surfacing and the real Vidhayak confronting him; Season 2 continued the story with Ronny working with the MLA and entering the world of politics, alongside a new rivalry and a love triangle. Khan said Ronny transforms from a carefree to a careful person, since acts now carry repercussions once the politician is actually his uncle.<sup>[10](https://www.dailypioneer.com/uploads/2021/epaper/march/bhopal-english-edition-2021-03-25.pdf)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[8](https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/entertainment-news/2021/Mar/24/wanted-to-tell-a-story-that-ive-lived-comedian-zakir-khan-on-his-show-chacha-vidhayak-hain-humare-2280944.html)</sup>\n\n**Season 3 (2024).** The third season moved to Amazon miniTV, Amazon's free streaming service, and began on April 25, 2024, directed by Gaganjeet Singh and written by Khan and Gopal Datt. In it, Ronny reluctantly agrees to stay out of politics at the insistence of the MLA Ashwini ([Abhimanyu Singh](https://www.edgepedia.org/abhimanyu-singh)), but their fates keep colliding as Ashwini disrupts Ronny's personal life. Khan called the season a homecoming and said Ronny takes his most unexpected step toward the season finale.<sup>[2](https://www.aboutamazon.in/news/entertainment/zakir-khan-chacha-vidhayak-hain-humare-season-3-trailer)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[9](https://www.aboutamazon.in/news/entertainment/chacha-vidhayak-hain-humare-star-zakir-khan-interview)</sup> The season finale, \"Chacha, This Is Politics,\" aired on April 24–25, 2024.<sup>[11](https://www.tvmaze.com/shows/54720/chacha-vidhayak-hain-humare)</sup>\n\n## Origin\n\nZakir Khan, a stand-up comedian from Indore, Madhya Pradesh, developed the show for Amazon Prime Video. He told The New Indian Express in March 2021 that Amazon asked him to make something for them, and that he wanted to tell a story he had lived: when he visited Indore and met his friends, he found that having a relative who is a popular figure genuinely mattered to them. He said the idea came from how closely being associated with a politician counts for some people, even when the politician merely acknowledges them. He framed the show as looking at the political world through the lens of a common man.<sup>[8](https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/entertainment-news/2021/Mar/24/wanted-to-tell-a-story-that-ive-lived-comedian-zakir-khan-on-his-show-chacha-vidhayak-hain-humare-2280944.html)</sup> Khan also co-wrote the series (with Gopal Datt credited on the third season) while acting as its lead.<sup>[2](https://www.aboutamazon.in/news/entertainment/zakir-khan-chacha-vidhayak-hain-humare-season-3-trailer)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[9](https://www.aboutamazon.in/news/entertainment/chacha-vidhayak-hain-humare-star-zakir-khan-interview)</sup>\n\n## Reception\n\nThe series holds an IMDb rating of 7.5/10 from about 6,600 users and a [JustWatch](https://www.edgepedia.org/justwatch) rating near 26 to 27 percent.<sup>[5](https://www.justwatch.com/in/tv-show/chacha-vidhayak-hain-hamare)</sup> In Ormax Media's mid-year 2024 review of streaming originals, Season 3 scored 57 on the Ormax Power Rating, placing it among the most-liked Hindi shows of the period but well below leaders such as Panchayat S3 (77) and Kota Factory S3 (72).<sup>[6](https://www.ormaxmedia.com/data/insights/library/StreamingOriginals-MidYearReview-Jan-Jun2024-OrmaxMedia.pdf)</sup> Amogh Dusad, Head of Content at Amazon miniTV, credited the show's mix of humor, drama, and satire for its resonance with audiences.<sup>[2](https://www.aboutamazon.in/news/entertainment/zakir-khan-chacha-vidhayak-hain-humare-season-3-trailer)</sup>\n\nIn an interview around Season 3, Khan discussed combining comedy with serious acting, saying the switch is easy because he speaks in his natural tone and does not pretend to be funny.<sup>[12](https://www.ottplay.com/interview/chacha-vidhayak-hain-humare-zakir-khan-on-juggling-intense-acting-and-comedy-switch-is-very-easy-i-am-not-pretending-to-exclusive/f482741430768)</sup>\n\n## Availability\n\nAs of late 2026, the series streams in the United States on Amazon Prime Video and Amazon Prime Video with Ads, while in India it is available free with ads on [MX Player](https://www.edgepedia.org/mx-player) and Amazon MX Player, with a UA 16+ age rating and English subtitles.<sup>[13](https://www.justwatch.com/us/tv-show/chacha-vidhayak-hain-hamare)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[5](https://www.justwatch.com/in/tv-show/chacha-vidhayak-hain-hamare)</sup>\n\n## References\n\n1.
