Renowned filmmakers Raj and DK, celebrated for their Prime Video hit The Family Man, also directed the popular thriller series Farzi, starring Shahid Kapoor and Vijay Sethupathi. Following the release of Farzi, fans quickly drew comparisons between the universe of two shows. In a recent interview, Manoj Bajpayee, who plays the lead in The Family Man, responded to speculation about the potential merger of the two worlds.
In an interview with Lallantop, Manoj said, “I don’t think this will happen. Right now, we have to complete the four seasons of Family Man. We have to finish that commitment first then we will think something. But I don’t think these universes will be merged because Family Man in itself is a very big universe. I don’t think Raj and DK and Amazon would want to mix it with something else.”
Fans speculated on connections between the two shows after Farzi featured an appearance by The Family Man’s Chellam sir. In one scene, Vijay’s character converses with someone named ‘Tiwari’ on a call, believed to be a direct reference to Manoj’s The Family Man character, Srikant Tiwari.
In a previous interview with indianexpress.com, The Family Man writer Suparn S Varma addressed fan theories about merging the universes of Farzi and The Family Man. He said, “I guess everyone will have to wait till Season 3 of The Family Man comes out to know what is speculation and what is theory. I am not going to add more fuel to the fire. Let fans of both the shows have fun till Season 3 comes out. That’s the fun of it. That’s the beautiful relationship the audience creates when they love a show and love the characters of the show.”
The shoot of the third season of The Family Man is yet to begin. The show is expected to release in 2025.
