"One thing we can all agree on: It’s time to gear up for 3!! - Raj & DK
If you are a fan of 'The Family Man' series, buckle up for another exciting journey ahead! Yes, Manoj Bajpayee and the team have finally commenced shooting for the third season of the show, and it goes without saying that we are more than excited to see how it unfolds. According to the buzz, there will be an even bigger terror this time, contributing to more drama, more thrill, and more actions!
A note from the makers reads, "As Srikant races against time, the stakes escalate as he needs to outmaneuver a formidable adversary and protect his country and its sovereignty."

Srikant Tiwari - the “middle-class man, world-class spy” - is inarguably the heart of the show, whose unparalleled charisma keeps us engaged throughout. However, while the spotlight is on Srikant, the show gives ample space for other characters to shine as well. And some of those characters are so interesting that we simply can't get over them.
So, as we await the upcoming season of 'The Family Man', let's take a moment and explore the best characters in the universe besides its protagonist.
Moosa, played by Malayalam actor Neeraj Madhav, is a major highlight of season 1, leaving one and all spellbound. What truly sets him apart is he is more humane than a typical villain of mainstream Hindi web series. And his journey throughout the series - from an innocent man being trapped in bad circumstances to becoming the main antagonist - is so well-written that we can't get enough of it!
Madhav's performance as Moosa earned enormous acclaim from critics and audiences alike. In his words, "This was the character I was waiting for in my career."
We don't know much about Chellam Sir. All we know about him is he is a retired member of the NIA (National Investigation Agency), and helps Srikant Tiwari whenever he needs it. He carries multiple phones and keeps discarding SIM cards once the job is done. He appears for roughly 15 minutes throughout the two seasons of the show, yet, makes a huge impact like no other. In fact, ever since the release of the second season, fans have been consistently demanding a spin-off series on him.

Well, it wouldn't be even an iota of an exaggeration to say that Samantha Ruth Prabhu as Raji - a Sri Lankan Tamil liberation fighter on a suicide mission - steals the show in season 2. She shines like a star in every frame that she appears in, and gives us goosebumps as she makes it hard for TASC officers to catch her. The character is both strong and vulnerable and holds a mirror onto our faces.
To portray the role, Samantha went through intense physical training for months. On the other hand, she did extensive research to get into the psyche of Raji. In her words, "I was particular about Raji’s portrayal being balanced, nuanced, and sensitive. I want Raji’s story to be a stark, much-needed reminder for us, more than ever before, to come together as humans to fight hate, oppression, and greed. If we fail to do so, countless more will be denied their identity, liberty, and their right to self-determination."
The list obviously doesn't end here. Besides the above-mentioned characters, it also includes Suchitra, JK Talpade, Dhriti, Muthu Pandian, and M Unmayal among others.
