THE FAMILY MAN dropped quietly on Amazon Prime and it soon became one of the greatest web series of India. The show was loved for its humour, realism, and thrill and of course, the performances. And now after a long wait, THE FAMILY MAN SEASON 2 is finally here.
In the thick of things and trying to avert an imminent threat, a group of National Investigation Agency (NIA) officers ruminate on why politicians can’t look at an issue without being driven by the politics of it all. An officer states that irrespective of whether they agree with an ideology or not, their duty is to serve the country in the interest of national security. Nothing else matters. They agree in unison and gear up for the rest of the fight, knowing well what’s at stake.
Season 1 of Raj and DK’s The Family Man was an absorbing, though a tad overdrawn, story of how these invisible and unsung heroes, led by Srikant Tiwari (Manoj Bajpayee), counter a terror operation. They left us on a cliffhanger.
THE FAMILY MAN SEASON 2 is the story of a secret agent trying to foil a deadly mission of a rebel group. After the Orion Chemical factory incident, Srikant Tiwari (Manoj Bajpayee) quits TASC over certain developments. He joins a new IT company called Cache Me, run by an overzealous and overachiever 28-year-old guy, Tanmay Ghosh (Kaustubh Kumar). Srikant’s wife Suchitra aka Suchi (Priyamani) quits Shrink Me after the Lonavala episode with Arvind (Sharad Kelkar). She’s now a homemaker and is terribly bored.
She starts going for therapy hoping that she can revive her marriage with Srikant. Srikant and Suchi’s daughter, Dhriti (Ashlesha Thakur) becomes even more rebellious and is now seeing a guy named Kalyan (Abhay Verma). Their son, Atharv (Vedant Sinha), on the other hand, is learning to play trumpet and is terrible at it. Meanwhile, The prime minister of Sri Lanka, Rupatunga (Abhishek Shankar) calls the prime minister of India, Basu (Seema Biswas) and requests her to hand over Subramaniam Palanivel aka Subbu (Srikrishna Dayal), who along with others is a part of the Tamil government in exile.
He’s wanted in Sri Lanka and is currently in Chennai. Basu makes it clear that he’s not a criminal on Indian soil and hence, she can’t hand him over. She later relents when Rupatunga agrees to allow Indian government to build a military base in Northern Sri Lanka. Basu realizes that this can help India keep China off the Indian Ocean. She tells the members of the TASC to arrest Subbu and get him to Mumbai. Srikant’s colleague and best friend JK Talpade (Sharib Hashmi) leaves for Chennai. Subbu however kills some TASC agents who had gone to nab him and takes a couple as hostages.
JK informs Srikant about it. Srikant gives valuable advice at this point that helps TASC arrest Subbu. Meanwhile, the ISI decides to play spoilsport here. They carry out a blast at a Chennai court when Subbu was present there. Subbu dies on the spot. This enrages his brother Bhaskaran (Mime Gopi), the prime minister of Tamil government in exile, operating from London. Bhaskaran quits the government and hands over the reins to Deepan (N Alagamperumal), a peace loving person who prefers dialogue over violence. Bhaskaran, however, is in no mood for peace.
SWEET TOOTH SERIES TRAILER REVIEW
Basu announces that she’ll hold bi-lateral peace talks with Rupatunga in Chennai. Bhaskaran senses that this is a great opportunity to eliminate both the ministers as both of them have been against their cause. Major Sameer (Darshan Kumaar), still hurt over the failure of Mission Zulfiqar, extends help to Bhaskaran to carry out his mission. Bhaskaran tells his team, lying dormant for years, to prepare. These include Selvarasan (Anandsami) and Raji (Samantha Akkineni). Both were a part of the Tamil rebel group but after the movement disintegrated, they have been living in Chennai without any suspicion. Both are asked to quit their jobs and start work.
All is going well until Nanda (Prakash Rajan), who owns a factory where Raji works, realizes that Raji is from Jaffna in Northern Sri Lanka and that she has given a fake address. He demands sexual favours from her. He comes to her house to sleep with her. She reluctantly agrees. However, when he physically assaults her during the act, an enraged Raji kills him with her own hands. What happens next forms the rest of the series.
The Family Man Season 2, starring Manoj Bajpayee, Samantha Akkineni, Priyamani, Sharib Hashmi, Seema Biswas, Darshan Kumar, Sharad Kelkar, Sunny Hinduja, Shreya Dhanwantary, Shahab Ali, Vedant Sinha, Mahek Thakur, Mime Gopi, Ravindra Vijay, Devadarshini Chetan, Anandsami and N.
