The wait is finally over for fans of The Family Man. Amazon Prime Video on Friday unveiled the trailer for the much-anticipated third season of the hit espionage drama at a grand event in Mumbai. The series marks the return of Manoj Bajpayee as the beloved but conflicted intelligence officer Srikant Tiwari, who finds himself on the other side of the law — hunted, accused, and determined to clear his name.
Srikant Tiwari on the run
The action-packed trailer opens with a tense revelation — Srikant Tiwari finally admitting to his family that he is, in fact, a spy. But before they can process the truth, his world turns upside down when an arrest warrant is issued against him, branding him a wanted criminal.
Forced to go underground, Srikant embarks on a perilous journey with his family, with loyal colleague JK Talpade (Sharib Hashmi) by his side. Amid gunfights, betrayals, and close calls, the trailer teases a gripping cat-and-mouse game that will push the protagonist beyond his limits.
New faces and formidable foes
Adding new firepower to the story are Jaideep Ahlawat and Nimrat Kaur, who join the ensemble cast this season. While Ahlawat plays a ruthless drug smuggler from the North-East, Kaur portrays Meera, the mastermind orchestrating Srikant’s downfall.
The trailer sets up Ahlawat’s character as one of the most dangerous adversaries Srikant has ever faced, hinting at an intense clash between two brilliant but morally ambiguous minds. Fans have already praised Ahlawat’s menacing screen presence, calling him a “game-changer” for the franchise.
Creators promise bigger scale and deeper emotions
Speaking at the trailer launch, the show’s creators and directors Raj & DK addressed the three-year gap since Season 2, assuring fans that the delay was driven by a desire to make this season “worth the wait.”
“Over the years, the love and adulation that audiences have showered on The Family Man have been truly overwhelming,” said the duo. “We wanted to ensure the wait was worth it — raising the stakes this season with even more high-octane action, gripping storytelling, and an elevated, edge-of-the-seat experience.”
Fans online echoed that sentiment, calling the trailer “worth every minute of the wait.” Many praised the balance between intense drama and the show’s signature humour. “The Srikant–JK banter remains the highlight,” one fan wrote on social media, while another commented, “Manoj sir is great as always, but Jaideep sir steals the show!”
Familiar faces return
Season 3 will also see the return of several familiar characters, including Priyamani as Srikant’s wife Suchi, Ashlesha Thakur and Vedant Sinha as their children, and Shreya Dhanwanthary and Gul Panag reprising their roles as TASC officers.
In a press release, Amazon Prime Video summarised the season’s plot:
“In this season, the stakes and dangers are higher than ever before, as Srikant Tiwari is pushed to his limits when he comes face-to-face with formidable new adversaries in Jaideep Ahlawat (Rukma) and Nimrat Kaur (Meera). On the run, Srikant must navigate uncharted territories while confronting threats and enemies from both within and beyond the nation’s borders.”
Release date and expectations
The Family Man Season 3 will premiere worldwide on Prime Video on November 21, 2025, in multiple languages including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam. The third instalment promises a thrilling blend of espionage, family drama, and social commentary, cementing its place as one of India’s most beloved streaming franchises.
With an expanded universe, powerful performances, and Raj & DK’s signature mix of humour and tension, The Family Man looks set to deliver another blockbuster season. Fans are already counting down the days to see Srikant Tiwari back in action — this time, not just as a spy, but as a fugitive fighting to protect his family and his name.
