The much-awaited trailer of Bhagwat Chapter One has finally been released, and it has already set social media buzzing. Known for his charming roles in shows like Kota Factory and Panchayat, Jitendra Kumar
takes a bold leap into a darker, grittier zone with this upcoming crime thriller.

Playing him was both challenging and rewarding”.
Jitendra Kumar’s work
The 34-year-old is famous as ‘Sachiv-ji’ from Panchayat web series. Jitendra might have flourished as an actor, but do you know that before venturing into the entertainment world, he used to be an IIT-ian? His passion for acting was so strong that the Panchayat star quit engineering and the rest is history. Now, let’s have a look at Jitendra’s personal and professional life as he rose to stardom. Jitendra Kumar’s on-screen portrayals catapulted him to the highest-paid actor in Panchayat. According to Business Standard, he earned Rs 5.6 lakh for the third season with a fee of Rs 70,000 per episode. So far, the actor has already accumulated a net worth of approximately Rs 7 crore as per reports by Zee News and ABP Live.
About Arshad Warsi:
He was recently seen in Jolly LLB 3 with Akshay Kumar. The Jolly LLB franchise began in 2013 with Arshad in the lead, followed by Jolly LLB 2 (2017) with Akshay. The latest installment builds on the courtroom drama-comedy blend that made the earlier films successful. While some critics feel Jolly LLB 3 doesn’t surpass its predecessors, reviews note that it offers enough humor, engaging performances, and legal drama to make it a worthy continuation of the much-loved series.
