Fans are praising Shahid Kapoor's performance, Vijay Sethupathi's hilarious lines and cameos from Family Man characters.
Shahid Kapoor could not have asked for a better reception to this OTT debut. Farzi, created by Raj and DK and released on Prime Video, has been getting positive reviews on social media. Many took to Twitter to praise Shahid, Vijay Sethupathi and even that popular spy from Raj and DK's other Prime Video hit, The Family Man.
Farzi stars Shahid Kapoor as Sandeep, a talented painter who start making counterfeit money to save his grandfather's magazine business. However, he soon begins to dive deep into the criminal life, unable to shake off the luxuries that it brings. On his heels is Vijay Sethupathi's cop Michael, who is waging a war against fake currency in India.

The show also brought back multiple characters from The Family Man. First it was Inspector Shinde that Rashi Khanna's Megha takes along on her raids of printing presses; and later Chellam Sir also makes a short cameo. Manoj Bajpayee's Srikanth also speaks with Michael over the photo in his usual no-nonsense style. After all these appearances, fans are hoping Michael would also make an appearance in Family Man season 3.
