After four long years, The Family Man returns with its third season, bringing back Manoj Bajpayee as the ever-conflicted intelligence officer Shrikant Tiwari. The earlier teasers hinted at his struggle for survival with lines like The Wanted One, The Targeted One, and The Hunted One. The reason behind those ominous clues now comes to light as Shrikant finds himself in his toughest fight yet. His secret identity is on the verge of being revealed, and he must protect his loved ones from a deadly threat closing in on him.
A High-Stakes Hunt Begins
During the trailer launch, the atmosphere turned intense when Jaideep Ahlawat and Nimrat Kaur were revealed as Shrikant’s new adversaries. Jaideep, stepping into the role of Rukma, brings a chilling presence reminiscent of a cold and calculated assassin. His dark and powerful transformation stands in sharp contrast to his earlier performance as the righteous Hathiram Chaudhary from Paatal Lok.
Despite their fierce on-screen rivalry, Jaideep and Manoj shared a warm moment during the event when Jaideep bent down to touch Manoj’s feet in respect. Their friendly exchange and laughter while reenacting a mock confrontation delighted everyone present.
Raj and DK Raise the Bar Once Again
Creators Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK, known for their work on Farzi, Citadel: Honey Bunny, and Guns & Gulaabs, are back to direct Season 3 along with Suman Kumar and Tusshar Seyth. According to Raj and DK, the stakes in this season are higher than ever before, promising an emotionally gripping and action-packed experience. Raj mentioned that this time, the hunter becomes the hunted, as Shrikant faces an enemy unlike any he has encountered before — one that threatens not only his career but also his family.
Manoj Bajpayee and Nimrat Kaur on Their Characters
Manoj Bajpayee expressed his deep connection with Shrikant Tiwari, describing the role as a homecoming experience. He believes that Shrikant’s imperfections and ordinary struggles make him relatable and beloved by audiences.
Nimrat Kaur, who plays the antagonist Meera, described her role as both thrilling and challenging. She revealed that Meera is a cunning mastermind who stays a step ahead of everyone while plotting murders and complex schemes to achieve her goals. For Nimrat, portraying evil with elegance adds an exciting twist — she calls it being “evil in couture.”
