A source close to the show had previously told PTI that its second season may get pushed due to controversy around the streaming platform’s shows ‘Tandav‘ and ‘Mirzapur’.

‘The Family Man’ season one premiered on September 20, 2019, and received positive reviews.

The story of the Amazon Prime Video backed show revolved around a middle-class man secretly working as an intelligence officer for the Threat Analysis and Surveillance Cell (TASC), a fictitious branch of the National Investigation Agency.
