Actress Nimrat Kaur opens up about finding personal empowerment through her powerful role in The Family Man Season 3 and navigating male-dominated writers' rooms.

"I think it's fascinating that the writer's room is all men. We are meeting a woman in a man's world who's running a show like a man and is written by men. - Nimrat Kaur"

Mumbai, Nov 28

Actress Nimrat Kaur opened up about the empowering experience of portraying a strong female character in "The Family Man Season 3."

She reflected on navigating a male-dominated writer's room and bringing depth to her role. Speaking about the intriguing dynamic of playing such a role, Nimrat shared, "I think it's fascinating that the writer's room is all men. We are meeting a woman in a man's world who's running a show like a man and is written by men. You know, I find that fascinating and it is so empowering to take that position and then fly with it and then look at your own self."

"And many times, I used to actually think about my own self and I used to be like you know it would be kind of cool to be this self-assured about so many situations which otherwise I would just you know be under a quilt about."

The 'Airlift' actress also reflected on the contrast between her character's confidence and her own personal life. Kaur highlighted how her profession allows her a sense of freedom and empowerment.

"It is so interesting that what I'm trying to sell as an idea or as a character on screen, I'm not sure if I can pull it off in real life. I really don't know if I have it in me with my conditioning, my upbringing, all of that. This is the freedom of being an actor," mentioned Nimrat.

Nimrat Kaur played the role of antagonist Meera in the "The Family Man Season 3." Directed by Raj & DK, the show featured Manoj Bajpayee, Priyamani and Jaideep Ahlawat. The third season of The Family Man premiered on Prime Video on November 21, 2025.

Speaking about the show, Manoj Bajpayee had earlier described his return as a "true homecoming." In a statement, he shared, "For the past four years, fans have hounded me with the question, 'Kab aa raha hai Srikant Tiwari?' And we finally have the answer with a new season that's not only bigger, bolder, and more exciting but also raises the stakes higher than ever for Srikant, as he finds himself cornered with no respite in sight."

Just finished watching Season 3 and Nimrat's performance as Meera was outstanding! The way she brought depth to a character written by men shows her incredible talent. More power to our Indian actresses breaking stereotypes! 🇮🇳

While I appreciate Nimrat's perspective, I wish she had addressed the need for more women writers in these rooms. It's great that she's making the character her own, but having female perspectives in the writing process would make these characters even more authentic.

Her honesty about the gap between on-screen confidence and real-life hesitation is so refreshing! Many of us Indian women feel this way - we can be strong professionals but still struggle with self-doubt in personal situations. Thank you for being so real, Nimrat! 💕

As someone who's watched all three seasons, I must say Nimrat's character arc has been one of the most compelling aspects of the show. The way she navigates this male-dominated world while maintaining her integrity is brilliant writing and acting combined!

"Running a show like a man" - this phrase makes me a bit uncomfortable. Why can't we just say she's running the show effectively? Women have their own leadership styles that don't need to be compared to men's. Otherwise, great interview!
