I’m ready for The Family Man season 3 script to return to me: Manoj Bajpayee

It has been solely two days because the second season of The Family Man began streaming on Amazon Prime Video and collection lead Manoj Bajpayee says followers have already began “demanding” the third chapter.
Created by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK, the brand new season of the espionage motion thriller collection launched on Friday after a variety of wait amid the controversy round Amazon’s exhibits Tandav and Mirzapur.
While season two finale of The Family Man drops greater than a touch concerning the potential renewal, Bajpayee, who performs Srikant Tiwari, an intelligence officer attempting to steadiness his private {and professional} life on the present, stated he has no concept how the story will progress if there’s a third half.
“There’s a lot of work that goes into making a season. I will be very happy if Amazon, and Raj and DK decide to do a season three but before that the writing has to be complete. All the formalities need to be finished. I’m ecstatic that people have started demanding season three,” the actor instructed PTI in a Zoom interview.
“What all season three will have, I myself don’t know. I’m waiting for the script to come to me,” he added.

With principally optimistic opinions coming their method, the crew of The Family Man has appeared to have achieved the inconceivable: delivered a greater season two.
Bajpayee, who gained his maiden finest actor National Award for Bhonsle earlier this yr, is in a contented area for multiple purpose.
“Season one was considered classic and cult in its own way and it created a franchise. After this, Raj and DK are regarded as one of the best minds in the industry. Suparn Verma, who joined the directors and writers, is a very close friend of mine. He has got his due with the second season. I must congratulate writers Suman and Manoj. These guys are pure geniuses,” the 52-year-old actor added.
The Family Man additionally stars Sharib Hashmi, Priyamani, Shreya Dhanwanthary, Sunny Hinduja, Shahab Ali, Ashlesha Thakur and Vedant Sinha.

Bajpayee, who continues to be on the high of his recreation in his 27-year-long appearing profession, stated it’s “touching” that the collection shouldn’t be recognized for being only a one-man present.
“Sharib’s success with this new season really touches my soul. I would like him to do very properly. His success is like my success. All these actors like Shahab who performed Sajid…
“Shreya had already become a big star after season one and then Scam 1992 came. I see Sunny who is Sandeep bhaiya in Aspirants and then Milind in this show and Priyamani, Ashlesha and Vedant… Their success is far more touching to me than me being talked about.”
The second season marks the digital debut of South star Samantha Akkineni, as Raji, who goes toe-to-toe with Bajpayee’s Srikant as his new and highly effective adversary.

“Samantha is such a huge star. She doesn’t need anybody to validate her work but she comes in and she contributes so much to the show,” Bajpayee stated praising his co-star.
Over two seasons, the crew has turn into a household, which like each different brood, has its personal WhatsApp group that retains buzzing, he stated.
“Now we are a family. Everyday we are constantly in touch with each other. There is a Family Man group on WhatsApp. I don’t go there quite often as I really can’t type. But this is the way it is. We are more happy for each other than for ourselves. This is the atmosphere not only on set, but also (off camera) as we keep checking on each other.”

Be it Srikant reciting the long-lasting Jo Jeeta Wahi Sikandar dialogue with expletives or being schooled by a youthful and hyper new boss within the trailer of the sophomore season, Bajpayee has been garnering reward for his comedian timing, a much less explored aspect of his persona within the motion pictures.
The Aligarh actor, nonetheless, stated he was merely being true to the character.
Citing his memorable roles like Bhikhu Mhatre in Satya and Sardar Khan in Gangs of Wasseypur, Bajpayee stated the viewers discovered these elements “quite hilarious”.
“Similarly after I’m taking part in Srikant, folks get these moments coming from his behaviour. But I’m not attempting to make you chuckle, I’m placing the character in that state of affairs, exploring his thought course of and his responses.
“I’m interested in getting the character to you in the most intelligent and honest way. When you look at the situation from a distance, it is hilarious. But at the same time, for those people who are living it, it is troublesome,” he added.

On one degree, The Family Man is a face-off between the “good guys” and “bad guys”, however the present additionally makes an attempt to blur this line between the 2, by way of healthful characters, Bajpayee stated.
“We are so influenced by mainstream cinema that we look at villains as dark (people). I think Ram Gopal Varma, Shekhar Kapur, Mani Ratnam have broken this stereotype and after them directors like Anurag Kashyap, Dibakar (Banerjee) have looked at characters in a human way.They tried to touch upon their story from their perspective.”
There is a collision between the 2 worlds during which these characters stay, he noticed.
“So it is as much as Srikant Tiwari’s series as it is Raji’s. Like the first season was as much Srikant’s as it was Moosa’s (played by Neeraj Madhav). How directors or writers tell a story or create characters and the world they inhabit, makes all the difference.”
