The Family Man (S-1 & 2): Chaotic World Of An Indian Spy

The Family Man is Krishna D.K. and Raj Nidimoru’s first web series in the Hindi language. This series takes a fascinating peek into the chaotic world of an Indian spy named Srikant, who is a regular middle-class man.

India is a vast democratic country with amazing diversity among its people as well as its geographical terrain. No wonder, since gaining its independence in 1947 from the colonial rule of the British Empire, India has faced many threats and challenges to its existence. Thus this contemporary spy drama delves into the chaotic risks that India faces as of now, whether in Jammu, Kashmir, Tamilnadu, Mumbai, Delhi, etc.

The Family Man Series:- synopsis

An edgy action-drama series, with a dose of satirical humour, The Family Man tells the story of a middle-class guy Srikant Tiwari (Manoj Bajpayee), a world-class spy who works for a special cell of the NIA (fictional National Investigation Agency?) of India. While he tries to protect India from terror threats, he also has to protect his family from the impact of his secretive, high-pressure and low-paying job. Thus, The Family Man Srikant Tiwari tries to balance his familial responsibilities and the tough and dangerous job at the NIA.

The Family Man (S1 & S2) Series:- a short review

Many middle-class families, especially middle-class men from India have closely identified with the storyline of The Family Man. The protagonist’s (played by Manoj Bajpayee) amazing balancing acts between the two demanding jobs – both at home and the office is fascinating. It portrays the charming juggling acrobat of a spy stationed at the (NIA) National Investigation Agency in India.

With its tight scripts and directions, this series takes a fascinating peek into the Indian spy world. Also, the ensemble cast of The Family Man has done a commendable job with their respective roles. The chemistry among its actors in its various scenes is wonderful to watch, especially, between Manoj and Priyamani (as Husband and Wife) as well as between Manoj and Sharib (as Srikant and JK – two spies in NIA) colleagues.

Not to forget the single-minded villains – Neeraj Madhav (plays Moosa Rahman) in season one and Samantha Ruth Prabhu (plays Raji) in season two. However, special mentions of Priyamani (plays Suchitra Tiwari) and Shahab Ali (plays Sajid) must be made here because of their good screen presence. I liked the entire ensemble cast of this series, as many of them have done an admirable acting job.

The Family Man has captured the imagination of its viewers with its two captivating seasons. Don’t miss out and watch it, in case you have not seen it, as yet.

…..

Dega Jaan (in English)

Kal Kare So Aaj Kar Aaj Kare So ab
Ghis Raha Hai Roz Tu Fal Milega Kab
Iski Uski Khood Ki Khushi Ke Liye Tune Kya Kya Kiya
Padh Leekh Ke Kaabil Bana, Phir Sab Kuchh Hasil Kiya
Khwaiyeshe Na Hoti Khatam Kam Pad Jaati Har Rakam
Chhin hi Na Le Dum Tere Ye Badhte Kadam

Kiske Liye Tu Dega Jaan Apni Jaan Bol
Kiske Liye Tu Dega Jaan Apni Jaan Bol

Tu Ye Na Jaane Teri Jaan Bepannah Hai
Dekho Na Tu Duniya Ya Tu Begunah Hai.

Tu Ye Na Jaane Teri Jaan Bepannah Hai.
Joothe Ye Sach Sach Kehna Mana Hai.

Kiske Liye Tu Dega Jaan Apni Jaan Bol

Soch Soch Soch Dimaag Ko Khod Khod Khod Khod
Soch soch Soch Dimaag Ko Khod Khod Khod Khod

Tu Jiya Apne Pyaar Ke Liye Sansaar Ke Liye Sarkaar Ke Liye
Tu Jiya Sanskar Ke Liye Ghar Baar Karobaar Ke Liye.
Koi Jiye Aitbaar Ke Liye EMI Wali Car Ke Liye
Kiska Makshad Bhand Ho Na Bus Shanivaar Itvaar Ke Liye

Soch Soch Soch Dimaag Ko Khod Khod Khod Khod
Soch Soch Soch Dimaag Ko Khod Khod Khod Khod

Do Pal Ki Zindagi Kya Kya Karega Kiske Liye Tu Suli Chadhega
Jeeya Toh Bhai Tu Sabke Liye Par Kiske Liye Marega

Kiske Liye Tu Dega Jaan Apni Jaan Bol

Kiske Liye Tu Dega Jaan Apni Jaan Bol

Soch Soch Soch Dimaag Ko Khod Khod Khod Khod
Kiske Liye Tu Dega Jaan Apni Jaan Bol

Soch Soch Soch Dimaag Ko Khod Khod Khod Khod
Kiske Liye Tu Dega Jaan Apni Jaan Bol

देगा जान (हिंदी में)

कल करे सो आज कर आज करे सो अब
घिस रहा है रोज़ तू फल मिलेगा कब
इसकी-उसकी, खुद की खुशी के लिए तूने
क्या-क्या किया
पढ़-लिख के क़ाबिल बना, फिर सब
कुछ हासिल किया
ख़्वाहिशें ना होती ख़तम कम पड़
जाती हर रकम
छीन ही ना लें दम तेरे बढ़ते ये
कदम

किसके लिए तू देगा जान अपनी जान बोल
किसके लिए तू देगा जान अपनी जान बोल

तू ये ना जाने तेरी जान बेपनाह है
बेगुनाह दुनिया या तू बेगुनाह है.

तू ये ना जाने तेरी जान बेपनाह है.
झूठ ही सच, सच कहना मना है.

किसके लिए तू देगा जान अपनी जान बोल

सोच सोच सोच दिमाग को खोद खोद
खोद खोद
सोच सोच सोच दिमाग को खोद खोद
खोद खोद

तू जिया अपने प्यार के लिए संसार के
लिए सरकार के लिए
तू जिया संस्कार के लिए घर बार
कारोबार के लिए
कोई जीये एतबार के लिए ईएमआई वाली कार
के लिए
किसी का मक़सद भंड हो ना बस
शनिवार इतवार के लिए

सोच सोच सोच दिमाग को खोद खोद
खोद खोद
सोच सोच सोच दिमाग को खोद खोद खोद
खोद खोद

दो पल की ज़िंदगी क्या-क्या करेगा किसके
लिए तू सूली चढ़ेगा
जिया तो भाई तू सब के लिए पर किसके
लिए मरेगा

किसके लिए तू देगा जान अपनी जान बोल
किसके लिए तू देगा जान अपनी जान बोल

सोच सोच सोच दिमाग को खोद खोद
खोद खोद
किसके लिए तू देगा जान अपनी जान बोल

सोच सोच सोच दिमाग को खोद खोद
खोद खोद
किसके लिए तू देगा जान अपनी जान बोल
