Along with new faces like Prakash Raj and Tahir Raj Bhasin, the second season also brings attention to fresh plots, including the threats associated with India’s UPI system and the downsides of using AI.
The Family Man Season 3
Release Date: late 2025
In a recent official clip, Prime Video confirmed the return of fan-favourite Srikant Tiwari (played by Manoj Bajpayee), and fans can’t keep calm. While everyone is eagerly waiting for the third season, it may take a while to arrive, as production is still underway.

Delhi Crime Season 3
Release Date: mid-2025
Netflix India has largely failed to impress users with its original shows in the first half of 2025. That may soon change, as Delhi Crime Season 3 is set to release soon on the platform.

According to some online reports, Season 3 could be released in two parts.
Mandala Murders

This marks the OTT debut of Vaani Kapoor. Alongside Kapoor, we’ll see Gullak fame Vaibhav Raj Gupta and the talented Surveen Chawla.
