The wait is on for Manoj Bajpayee’s web series “The Family Man Season 3”. It’s been four years since we last saw Raj and DK’s spy-action-thriller on our screens. The second season dropped in 2021, while the first season premiered in 2019. “The Family Man” is one of the select few web series that have had two super-hit seasons. The season 2 finale hinted that Srikant Tiwari, played by Manoj Bajpayee, is about to embark on his biggest mission yet. But even after four years, the makers have kept mum about the release date.
Now, whispers are doing the rounds that “The Family Man 3” might just heat things up this summer. According to a Filmibeat report, the third season could release on Amazon Prime Video after the Indian Premier League (IPL 2025). The IPL matches start on March 22, with the final scheduled for May 25, 2025.

Shooting wrapped up, ‘Farzi’ connection on the cards?
The team announced in January 2025 that the shooting for “The Family Man Season 3” has been completed, and post-production work is underway. Raj and DK’s “Farzi” web series, starring Shahid Kapoor and Vijay Sethupathi, had a connection to “The Family Man”. This has amped up the excitement – will Raj and DK link the two series in season 3? For now, we’re left waiting for the official release date announcement from the makers.
