Vijay Sethupathi to play Cameo Role in The Family Man 3
Among the countless web shows released over the past decade, only a select few have carved out a legacy—and The Family Man stands firmly at the top of that list. Debuting on Amazon Prime Video on September 20, 2019, the Manoj Bajpayee-led series began with modest buzz but quickly mushroomed into a cultural phenomenon. Its second season, which arrived on July 4, 2021, enjoyed the same roaring acclaim.
Now, as The Family Man Season 3 prepares to premiere on Amazon Prime Video tomorrow, November 21, anticipation is at an all-time high. And according to insider chatter, fans are in for a massive surprise. – Vijay Sethupathi to play Cameo Role in The Family Man 3
Vijay Sethupathi Makes a High-Impact Cameo
A source reveals that Vijay Sethupathi will make a brief yet explosive entry in Season 3, once again playing Michael Vedanayagam, his widely loved character from Raj & DK’s 2023 thriller Farzi.
The source shared:
“Sethupathi appears only for a few minutes, but the segment is packed with humor, swagger, and narrative value. His interactions with Manoj Bajpayee’s Srikant Tiwari are absolutely electric.”
Raj & DK Expand Their Spy Universe
Both The Family Man and Farzi come from the creative powerhouse duo Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK. Not only do they share creators, but both shows also stream on Amazon Prime Video—making crossovers organically possible.
Raj & DK had already teased a connected universe earlier.
-
Farzi featured the iconic Chellam Sir (Uday Mahesh) from The Family Man 2.
-
The show also included a fun voiceover cameo by Manoj Bajpayee as Srikant.
Fans initially speculated that Michael would appear again only as a voiceover in Season 3. Instead, the makers elevated the surprise by bringing him in physically, setting the stage for deeper crossover possibilities. – Vijay Sethupathi to play Cameo Role in The Family Man 3
A New Standard for Web-Series Crossovers
While cinematic crossovers are widely practiced in Indian films, such integrations are still rare in OTT storytelling. The Family Man–Farzi universe remains one of the only successful interconnected projects in Indian streaming.
With Vijay Sethupathi now officially stepping foot into Srikant Tiwari’s world, Raj & DK’s spy universe looks ready to expand into something larger, wilder, and far more ambitious in the coming years.
