After keeping fans waiting for nearly four long years, Prime Video has finally dropped a major update that’s sending waves of excitement across the internet. The Family Man Season 3—one of India’s most eagerly awaited web series—is officially set to premiere on November 21, 2025, on Amazon Prime Video.
The announcement marks the long-awaited return of Manoj Bajpayee as the sharp yet relatable intelligence officer Srikant Tiwari, a character that has become a fan favorite since the series debuted.
Prime Video Teases the Comeback of Srikant Tiwari
The news broke through a clever and engaging teaser video shared on Prime Video’s social media handles, which perfectly captured the impatience of the show’s loyal fan base.
The video opens with a montage of comments from fans flooding social platforms with one recurring question — “Kab aa rahe ho, Srikant?” (When are you coming, Srikant?). This phrase has echoed endlessly across X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and YouTube comment sections ever since Season 2 concluded in 2021.
Moments later, the familiar face of Manoj Bajpayee appears on screen in a scene reminiscent of the series’ signature style. Answering a phone call, he says with his trademark calm, “Nahi bas pahunch gaya, gate par hoon.” (No, I’ve just arrived, I’m at the gate).
The clip then ends with the words “Coming Soon”, followed by the big reveal — the series will start streaming from November 21.
This short but impactful teaser instantly sent fans into a frenzy online, marking the first significant update since Season 2 and reigniting anticipation for what’s next in Srikant’s turbulent double life.
What to Expect from The Family Man Season 3
The Family Man has earned its cult status for masterfully blending gritty espionage drama with slice-of-life family humor. The first season revolved around a looming terror plot, while the second delved into South India’s insurgent movement, weaving together geopolitical intrigue and human emotion.
Season 3 promises to take the narrative to an even larger canvas. According to reports, the new season will center on a fresh geopolitical conflict involving India and China, using the COVID-19 pandemic as a cover for a covert operation in India’s North-Eastern states.
As the world reeled from the chaos of the pandemic, the show’s creators found an opportunity to explore how global crises can be exploited for espionage — a timely and bold theme that grounds the fictional story in a strikingly real context.

Creative Team and Direction
Just like the previous seasons, The Family Man 3 continues to be helmed by the visionary duo Raj Nidimoru and Krishna D.K., collectively known as Raj & DK, under their banner D2R Films.
The writing team remains consistent, with Raj, DK, and Suman Kumar penning the screenplay, ensuring that the show retains its signature mix of humor, thrill, and realism.
Dialogues — which have often added much of the series’ sharp wit — are once again written by Sumit Arora, while Suman Kumar and Tusshar Seyth join Raj & DK in the director’s chair this season. This multi-director setup is expected to bring fresh creative depth while maintaining the show’s unified storytelling tone.
Returning Cast and New Faces
At the heart of The Family Man is, of course, Manoj Bajpayee, who returns as Srikant Tiwari — a middle-class father and husband struggling to balance the emotional complexities of home life with the dangerous demands of being a secret agent.
Joining him once again is Priyamani, who reprises her role as Suchitra Tiwari, Srikant’s wife, who continues to question the toll his secretive job takes on their family.
Other beloved cast members also return, including:
-
Sharib Hashmi as JK Talpade, Srikant’s trusted partner and source of comic relief.
-
Shreya Dhanwanthary as Zoya, a tech-savvy analyst.
-
Ashlesha Thakur as Dhriti Tiwari, Srikant’s teenage daughter navigating her own rebellious arc.
-
Vedant Sinha as Atharv Tiwari, the witty and observant younger son.
-
Gul Panag as Saloni, another key figure in Srikant’s operations.
Adding star power and intrigue to Season 3 are Jaideep Ahlawat and Nimrat Kaur, who join the ensemble in pivotal roles. Ahlawat, known for his intense performances in Paatal Lok and Raazi, will play the formidable Rukma, while Nimrat Kaur steps into the role of Meera, a powerful adversary with global influence.
Their inclusion hints at an even more layered conflict, raising the stakes for Srikant like never before.
Plot Hints: A New Threat, A New Battle
If the teasers and leaks are anything to go by, The Family Man 3 will see Srikant Tiwari on the run, forced to confront not only external enemies but also threats from within.
With his enemies growing stronger and closer to home, Srikant will be navigating uncharted territory — both politically and personally. The creators describe this chapter as the most intense, gripping, and expansive in the series yet.
The theme “the hunter becomes the hunted” will reportedly define the narrative, as Srikant faces off against Rukma, a dangerous foe who threatens not just his career but also his family’s safety.
When and Where to Watch The Family Man Season 3
The much-anticipated third season of The Family Man is scheduled to premiere worldwide on November 21, 2025, exclusively on Amazon Prime Video.
The show will be streaming across more than 240 countries and territories, making it one of India’s biggest global OTT releases this year.
To confirm the date, Prime Video shared another promotional video featuring Manoj Bajpayee, who announced his return in his signature witty style. The caption read:
“Le laadle, ho gaya Srikant ka comeback. #TheFamilyManOnPrime, November 21.”
Fans across the globe instantly flooded social media with excitement, counting down the days to Srikant Tiwari’s comeback.
Raj & DK on the Show’s Enduring Legacy
Speaking about the long wait and fan response, creators Raj & DK expressed heartfelt gratitude toward the audience that has made The Family Man one of India’s most beloved OTT franchises.
In a joint statement, they said:
“Over the years, the love and adulation that audiences have showered on The Family Man have been truly overwhelming. We know the audience has been patient, and we wanted to ensure that the wait was worth it. This season, we’ve raised the stakes with even more high-octane action, a gripping narrative, riveting performances, and an edge-of-the-seat experience.”
They added that this season flips the script — “the hunter becomes the hunted” — as Srikant faces a threat unlike any before, one that puts both his career and family in jeopardy.
“We’re confident that on November 21, audiences around the world will enjoy this new season with as much excitement as the previous two, if not more,” they concluded.
The Journey So Far: Why The Family Man Continues to Resonate
Since its debut, The Family Man has revolutionized Indian web storytelling by seamlessly merging real-world geopolitics with ordinary middle-class realism. Its success lies not just in the slick action sequences or clever writing, but in the human core of its narrative — the story of a man torn between his duty to his country and his responsibility to his family.
Manoj Bajpayee’s nuanced performance as Srikant Tiwari captures this conflict perfectly — a man who could be your neighbor, your colleague, or your father, yet lives a secret life that could determine national security.
Season 1 and 2 both received widespread critical acclaim, with audiences praising their tight screenplay, humor, and grounded portrayal of Indian intelligence operations. The show’s ability to mirror real socio-political tensions while maintaining entertainment value has made it a benchmark for Indian OTT content.

Fans who have been asking “Kab aa rahe ho, Srikant?” for the past four years finally have their answer — November 21, 2025.
