Actor Sharib Hashmi has come a long way in his career. Though in his early days, he worked in a few films, those projects didn't give him much recognition. But today, he is one of the most known actors in the industry. All thanks to OTT. Especially, with Raj & DK's 'The Family Man', Sharib became a household name. His on-screen chemistry and bond with Manoj Bajpayee were very much loved by the audience. Sharib played JK Talpade, who was Srikant Tiwari's (Manoj Bajpayee) colleague and best friend.
Sharib told Outlook India that when he came out after giving the audition of 'The Family Man', he had the intuition that if it happened, his life would change. ''It has the potential to change things for me and I was right. When the series was released, and the second season of 'The Family Man' came, it gave a big boost to my career. Then came 'Asur', 'Vikram Vedha', 'Tarla' and things started changing. It all started with OTT and I give 100 percent credit to it for the new leap of life,'' he added.

The 'Filmistaan' actor further said, ''I can't thank Raj & DK, Mukesh Chhabra and Amazon Prime enough for giving me JK (Talpade). The show made me reach every household.''
Everyone is now eagerly waiting for the third season of 'The Family Man'. When asked to share details on the upcoming season, Sharib Hashmi said, ''I can't reveal much about it but yeah, we are going to shoot for it very soon. I don't know the exact dates now but hopefully, it will start in 2024.''
''I can't wait to go back on the sets as JK because I am missing my character now. Also, I am really missing Manoj (Bajpayee) sir,'' he concluded.
