The countdown to The Family Man Season 3 has officially begun, and the ‘Srikant Tiwari’ mania is once again sweeping across the internet. Following the thrilling teaser and release date announcement, fans are eagerly waiting for the much-anticipated trailer, which drops tomorrow after four long years of anticipation. The Prime Video hit, starring the brilliant Manoj Bajpayee, has redefined the Indian web-series space with its perfect blend of action, humor, and realism. But beyond its gripping narrative, The Family Man has become a cultural phenomenon thanks to Srikant Tiwari’s razor-sharp, brutally honest, and endlessly relatable one-liners that mirror the everyday struggles of the common man.
Manoj Bajpayee’s portrayal of Srikant — a middle-class man juggling his covert missions, a demanding family life, and constant work stress — struck a chord with audiences across generations. Whether it’s taking down terrorists or handling domestic drama, Srikant’s signature sarcasm and deadpan humor reflect the frustrations we all face. Lines like “Yeh quote aapko Google pe bhi mil jaaega” perfectly sum up today’s overexposure to hollow advice, while “Don’t be a minimum guy!” has become a motivational anthem for hustlers everywhere. His parenting meltdown with “Jor se mat phook, hawa nikal jaayegi” continues to leave fans in splits, capturing every parent’s patience on the brink.
Even his confused outburst, “FOMO, LOLO, ROFLO,” after leaving his thrilling job for a dull IT role, brilliantly depicts the generational and emotional conflict of modern life. And of course, who can forget his existential classic — “Drink kum karo, smoking kum karo, khana kum karo… matlab jeena hi kum karo!” — a rant that has become every overworked Indian’s inner monologue.
From roasting his best friend with “Tu minimum guy nahi hai, tu zero hai” to casually redefining sarcasm as philosophy, Srikant Tiwari’s words have transcended the show to become part of our everyday vocabulary. As The Family Man Season 3 gears up for its global premiere on Prime Video on November 21, fans can look forward to more high-stakes missions, chaotic family drama, and of course, another round of dialogues that we’ll be quoting for years to come.
