At the ongoing International Film Festival of India, the stars and creators of The Family Man 2, Manoj Bajpayee, Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Raj and DK, came together for a panel discussion, where several surprising things were revealed, like Manoj Bajpayee confessing that he didn't have to look far for inspiration to play Srikant Tiwari as he came from a middle-class upbringing while also admitting that he almost didn't play the role. On the other hand, Samantha Ruth Prabhu touched upon how the risk she took with The Family Man 2 has benefitted her and opened up several new avenues for the actress.
Speaking at IFFFI, Manoj Bajpayee said he was quite afraid because somewhere he was reluctant to be part of the template which I could see forming on the OTT platform, and that made him unclear as to what he wanted to be a part of, but, definitely, he was very clear about what he never wanted to be a part of. He added that before agreeing to The Family Man, there were a few series that garnered quite a lot of curiosity and excitement from the audience, but at same time, there was a template that makers were following, which included blood, gore and pistols.
Coming to Samantha Ruth Prabhu, she disclosed that she wanted to take a risk so that there was a growth for the actor in her, and doing Family Man was a decision that has benefited her tremendously as it has opened up so many new avenues.
