Manoj
Bajpayee's
The
Family
Man
has
been
praised
for
performances
and
storytelling
since
the
release
of
season
one
in
2019.
The
makers
have
been
hinting
at
a
season
3
but
are
yet
to
confirm
any
details
about
the
show.
Manoj
Bajpayee
during
an
interaction
revealed
that
it
may
take
up
to
two
years
for
the
show
to
return.
Meanwhile,
a
report
has
revealed
that
the
actor
is
already
in
talks
about
the
remuneration
for
season
3.
Bollywood
Hungama
reported
that
the
actor
who
is
one
of
the
finest
stars
of
Bollywood
has
decided
to
raise
his
fees
for
his
return
in
season
3.
While
he
was
offered
somewhere
around
Rs
8-10
crore
for
the
second
season,
the
actor
will
now
get
paid
double
the
amount.
A
source
was
quoted
by
the
portal
as
saying,
"From
what
we've
heard,
for
The
Family
Man
Season
3,
Manoj
Bajpayee
has
asked
Rs
2.25
to
Rs
2.50
crore
per
episode.
The
actor
feels
that
he
deserves
this
much
since
it
has
become
one
of
the
most-watched
shows
of
all
time.
Moreover,
he's
the
lead
actor
and
audiences
have
raved
about
his
performance.
Hence,
he
has
made
the
demand
for
a
pay
hike.
The
discussions
have
been
going
on."
An
industry
insider
revealed
that
season
3
many
continue
with
a
nine-episode
per
season
pattern
similar
to
the
previous
season.
Talking
about
Manoj
Bajpayee,
the
insider
added,
"He
has
asked
for
around
Rs
20.25
crore
or
Rs
22.50
crore
in
totality.
That's
more
than
double
of
what
he
was
paid
for
Season
2.
This
is
a
huge
leap
but
also
a
well-deserved
one.
Manoj
Bajpayee
is
right
now
the
Aamir
Khan
of
digital
space.
His
presence
has
helped
the
show
and
so
has
his
flawless
performance.
It's
great
if
he
receives
this
said
figure.
The
web
has
indeed
proved
to
be
a
boon
for
talented
actors
like
him."
