The teaser of the second season of the Amazon Prime Video web-series The Family Man gives a fair idea about the plot.
Shrikant Tiwari (Manoj Bajpayee), who lives a dual life as an undercover intelligence agent and a householder, is missing. His wife Suchitra (Priyamani) and two kids are worried and upset. We are led to wonder whether it is marital issues or the nature of his job that has caused Shrikant to go off the radar.
Shrikant’s best friend and colleague JK Talpade (Sharib Hashmi) is also wondering about his disappearance as is almost everyone at the agency. One day, the head of the agency Kulkarni (Dalip Tahil, who isn’t seen) sends him a message to our protagonist informing him about a new challenge and asks him to return. Will Shrikant oblige?
The second season seems to have an interesting and intriguing storyline. Although the teaser is only around a minute long, it seems that this season will be much grander in scale than its predecessor.
Another attraction is the inclusion of the Southern star Samantha Akkineni as one of the cast members. We are given a glimpse of her as a regular middle-class woman at the end.
Directed by Raj and DK, the trailer of the second season of The Family Man will be out on 19 January.
The show will be streamed from 12 February.
