Manoj Bajpayee: “Srikant Tiwari embodies every common man” Ahead of

Actor Manoj Bajpayee is all set to return as the much-loved intelligence officer Srikant Tiwari in the highly anticipated third season of Amazon Prime Video’s The Family Man . The acclaimed actor, who has earned immense praise for his nuanced portrayal of the relatable spy, described his character as “an amalgamation of everything human.”

At the trailer launch event held in Mumbai on Friday, Bajpayee shared his thoughts on reprising the iconic role. “Srikant is not your typical on-screen hero. He’s deeply human someone with strengths, flaws, and a moral compass that wavers just like any ordinary person. That’s what makes him so special and so real,” the actor said.

The upcoming third season, which premieres on December 20, 2025 , promises high-octane action and emotional drama. This time, Srikant Tiwari finds himself on the run a fugitive hunted by both his own agency and dangerous new enemies, all while trying to protect his family and prevent a looming national crisis.

The Family Man , created by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna D.K., first premiered in 2019 and became an instant hit for its gripping mix of espionage, humor, and domestic chaos. Season 1 introduced audiences to Srikant, a middle-class man juggling his secret life as a spy with his family responsibilities. The second season, released in 2021, raised the stakes further with Samantha Ruth Prabhu joining the cast as the fierce antagonist Raji, earning widespread acclaim from critics and audiences alike.

With Season 3, fans can expect another thrilling chapter in the journey of India’s most relatable secret agent one that blends patriotism, family drama, and sharp wit in true Family Man style.
