The Family Man 3 review

An in-house Times Now critic reviewed The Family Man 3. Giving the show 3.5 stars, the critic wrote, “The Family Man 3 never becomes a fast-paced show. It is a slow burn with each episode leaving some enticing crumbs to spill over to the next. After the initial one-sided story, the season picks up in the second half where chases are thrilling, silences are haunting and unexpected twists are luring in the dark. A delightful cameo makes it even better. However, the ending could disappoint those who’re looking for an ultimate white or black conclusion.” The Family Man 3 also stars Nimrat Kaur, Priyamani, Ashlesha Thakur, Vedant Sinha, Shreya Dhanwanthary, Gul Panag, Seema Biswas, Vipin Sharma, Dalip Tahil, Darshan Kumar, Harman Singha, Paalin Kabak, Aditya Srivastava and Jugal Hansraj.
