Anticipation Builds for ‘The Family Man 3’ with New Antagonists

Anticipation is mounting for the third installment of the popular series ‘The Family Man‘, which will see Manoj Bajpayee reprise his role as Srikant Tiwari. In this new season, Tiwari is set to confront severe national security challenges while attempting to mend his family life.

A recent report in Bollywood Bubble has confirmed the addition of Jaideep Ahlawat and Nimrat Kaur as antagonists facing off against Bajpayee’s character. There is a veil of secrecy surrounding their characters, especially as details remain scant about Ahlawat’s and Kaur’s roles, sustaining the suspense among the show’s fanbase.

Filming for the show commenced in the North East of India in September 2024, with Jaideep Ahlawat shooting scenes in Nagaland, according to unnamed sources cited in Bollywood Hungama. Ahlawat’s role is being kept under wraps, adding yet more intrigue to the upcoming season.

Nimrat Kaur, who received critical acclaim for her performance in ‘The Lunchbox’, and subsequently appeared in American series such as ‘Homeland‘ and ‘Wayward Pines’, joins the cast. Her previous roles have set high expectations for her portrayal of a complex female antagonist, according to insider speculation.

Following a stellar performance by Samantha Ruth Prabhu in season two, fans are eager to see how Kaur’s character will unfold. Meanwhile, some viewers express concern over the potential for predictable narrative strategies given the use of a formula that has previously proven successful.

The narrative of ‘The Family Man 3’ is expected to uphold the show’s tradition of high-stakes drama, requiring Srikant Tiwari to operate under immense pressure to protect national sovereignty while handling personal issues.
