The third season of The Family Man finally premiered on Amazon Prime Video on November 21, 2025, and with its soaring popularity has come renewed curiosity around the cast’s updated salaries. Season 3 has expanded in scale, ambition, and narrative complexity, and the actors’ fees reflect exactly that.

Manoj Bajpayee Leads the Pay Scale Yet Again

According to Bollywood Life, Manoj Bajpayee continues to remain the highest-paid member of the ensemble. The actor reportedly charged between ₹20.25 crore and ₹22.50 crore to return as Srikant Tiwari. His performance and narrative centrality continue to anchor the series, making his fee unsurprising.

Jaideep Ahlawat and Nimrat Kaur Follow Closely

Jaideep Ahlawat, who plays the season’s menacing antagonist Rukma, reportedly earned around ₹9 crore for his role. Nimrat Kaur, who steps in as Meera

Eston, is said to have taken home ₹8 to ₹9 crore. Darshan Kumaar, returning as Major Sameer, reportedly earned a similar amount, marking him among the top-paid cast members this season.

Season 3’s Plot Raises the Stakes for Srikant

The narrative in Season 3 pushes Srikant into his most vulnerable chapter yet. Accused of murder by the Intelligence Department, he can no longer hide his struggles or maintain his double life. A new villain emerges, triggering a cascade of political, personal, and national crises. By the time the final episode ends, viewers are left on a sharp cliffhanger—forcing speculation about a potential Season 4 and the uncertain fates of both Rukma and Srikant.
