Another insider told PTI, "The show has been postponed as the platform appears to be cautious. There's nothing in season two of The Family Man that would hurt anybody but given the current scenario, to be on a safer note it has been decided to push ahead the release of the show."

The makers of The Family Man are yet to release the official trailer for the second season.

Amazon Prime India has landed into a pool of controversies after several complaints were filed against Saif Ali Khan-starrer show Tandav, days later a case was also registered against the makers of Mirzapur at Uttar Pradesh's Mirzapur district for allegedly hurting the religious sentiments. Recently, the Supreme Court declined to grant interim protection from any coercive action to Tandav director Ali Abbas Zafar, actor Mohd Zeeshan Ayyub and others facing multiple FIRs for allegedly hurting religious sentiments. Meanwhile, the Allahabad High Court last week stayed the arrest of producers of Mirzapur web series - Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani - in connection with a First Information Report that accused them of improper and indecent portrayal of the town Mirzapur and outraging religious belief.

The Family Man season one premiered on September 20, 2019 and received rave reviews. In the show, Bajpayee plays an intelligence officer Srikant Tiwari. The second season will see the actor's character taking on a bigger and deadlier mission, along with keeping up with a high-pressure job and keeping his country safe, at the same time juggling with his responsibility towards the family. Actors Sharib Hashmi, Priyamani, Sharad Kelkar, and Shreya Dhanwanthary are reprising their roles from season one. The second season of The Family Man will mark digital debut of south star Samantha Akkineni.
