Where even the most successful series have buckled under the curse of the second season, Manoj Bajpayee’s The Family Man stands out as a proud exception. Over the past weekend, creators Raj-DK gave us a gripping story that beautifully blends political commentary and humour, while also putting the spotlight on the motivations and despair of the Tamil rebels. At the centre of it all is a stellar performance by Bajpayee as Srikant Tiwari.
Thrilled about the praise coming his way, Bajpayee says that the latest instalment has widened his fan base. “OTT has taken me to the generation that is growing up now. This generation was not really aware of my previous works. Now, 15- or 16-year-olds come to me, wanting a picture — that’s something I have not enjoyed before. The contribution of The Family Man to my career is that it introduced me to a new fan base.” One of the early birds on digital entertainment, the actor believes the medium thrives on experimentation. “I have had my share of successes, but they were not consistent. OTT, on the other hand, gives a lot of space to an actor like me to explore and invent. If you’re not willing to evolve, you can’t sustain on this platform.”
