Swetha Ramakrishnan Firstpost 10/09/2023
The series is committed to showing Manoj Bajpayee as some sort of a "bechara" who can't catch a break. To his credit, Manoj Bajpayee's performance is impressive as always, but his comic timing came across as weak. Go to Full Review

The Family Man joins all the other Indian original streaming shows that have introduced us to wonderful character actors that we otherwise would never have been in the spotlight. Go to Full Review

The Family Man shows itself to be very socially and politically aware but its inelegant handling of exposition, and inability to be tonally cohesive lets it down. Go to Full Review
Rohan Naahar Hindustan Times 09/20/2019
Funny, slick, and surprisingly relevant, Amazon Prime delivers its best Indian original series since Made in Heaven. Manoj Bajpayee is, as always, in excellent form. Go to Full Review

Stephane D @StephDB Dec 8 I enjoy watching foreign series but this one I couldn't. I needed subtitles all the time and got lost in the names of the characters and criminals in no time. Nothing makes sense to me, it's like an alternate reality. But sadly not in an enjoying kind of way. See more Michael B. @KVD1969 Dec 6 Srikant Tiwari is a middle-class family man trying to juggle his chaotic home life with the high-stakes, secretive world of intelligence work for the Threat Analysis and Surveillance Cell (TASC). His ordinary façade hides a world-class spy struggling to keep his professional and personal obligations separate, leading to constant tension with his wife and children. The first season follows Srikant and his TASC team as they race against time to investigate and thwart "Mission Zulfiqar," a deadly, coordinated terrorist attack planned to strike India. As he closes in on the threat, Srikant faces tough moral choices while the strain on his marriage nears a breaking point. Ultimately, the season culminates in a desperate final attempt to stop a catastrophic nerve gas attack, leaving the audience on a tense cliffhanger about the fate of a city.

See more Aditya S @Aditya327 Mar 31 Great action, an engaging and original plotline, great cast performances, and amazing character moments for Srikanth and his family. See more Sharang L @Scribe187 08/15/2024 A sloppy mishmash of genres with an uncharacteristically insipid Bajpayee performance.
