Mumbai, October 2025 – The much-anticipated third season of the acclaimed spy-thriller series The Family Man is finally ready to hit streaming screens. Headlined by Manoj Bajpayee as the ever-resourceful and fraught undercover agent Srikant Tiwari, the show’s creators have confirmed that Season 3 will premiere on November 21, 2025, exclusively on Amazon Prime Video across India and more than 240 countries and territories.
With the announcement comes a promise of a larger canvas, heightened danger and more complex emotional terrain for its characters especially for Srikant, who must once again juggle the demands of national security and the fragile ties of home life.
What’s New in Season 3: Bigger Threats, Deeper Drama
According to the official announcements from the makers Raj Nidimoru & Krishna DK (commonly “Raj & DK”) and Amazon Prime Video India, this season raises the bar unlike ever before.
- In their own words: “This season, the hunter becomes the hunted, as Srikant faces a threat unlike any before… one that endangers not just him and his career, but his family too.”
- New adversaries join the fray notably Jaideep Ahlawat as Rukma and Nimrat Kaur as Meera, both positioned as significant players in Srikant’s world this time.
- The tagline from one teaser: “Stakes and dangers are higher than ever before.”
All of this suggests that The Family Man 3 is being crafted as not just a continuation, but an escalation — more action, more geopolitical firepower, more domestic strain.

Key Story Threads & What to Expect
While the makers remain tight-lipped about full plot details, the following can be inferred based on past seasons, teasers and official commentary:
- Srikant Tiwari is back in his dual role — undercover agent for TASC (Threat Analysis & Surveillance Cell) and family man at home. This duality has been the core of the show’s appeal.
- Season 3 appears to take Srikant into uncharted territories including threats that originate beyond national borders, and adversaries that blur the line between professional duty and personal survival.
- Family stakes are higher than ever. The line from creators about the risk being to “not just him and his career, but his family too” flag a shift: the domestic sphere will be under as much pressure as the battlefield.
- New characters like Rukma and Meera aren’t just guest stars they’re described as formidable, hinting at major story arcs that could disrupt the established order of the first two seasons.
- The action sequences, espionage manoeuvres and intelligence-drama promises to be at a scale bigger than before. According to Amazon’s head of Originals: “The upcoming season promises an even more thrilling ride”.
Why Season 3 Matters
- The first season (2019) established The Family Man as a milestone in Indian OTT blending mainstream entertainment with intelligent storytelling and layered characters.
- Season 2 (2021) raised the stakes geographically and politically. Season 3 appears poised to raise them even further.
- In a crowded streaming space, this show continues to be a flagship for Indian long-format content. Amazon India’s Nikhil Madhok praised the series as having “redefined long-format storytelling”.
