The Shahid Kapoor and Vijay Sethupathi starrer, Farzi, has received excellent reviews from both audiences and critics. The web series marks Shahid’s first foray into the OTT space and Vijay’s first Hindi web series. Directed and written by Raj & DK, the dark-thriller-dramedy has generated a lot of excitement among fans who have been eager to see the two actors together. In one of the episodes, there were references to Srikant Tiwari played by Manoj Bajpayee from The Family Man, which led to speculation among fans about a potential crossover between the two spy universes.

Taking notice of the eagle-eyed audiences and fan theories, Prime Video recently released a hilarious video hinting at the link between Michael and Srikant. The video features a conversation between Srikant Tiwari and Chellam sir discussing the chase between Sunny aka the artist and Michael, and how the duo can help their friend Michael. Srikant narrates the story of three players – the artist, kingpin Mansoor Dalal played by KK Menon, and the cop Michael played by Vijay.

Reacting to the video, Vijay wrote, “@primevideoin @bajpayee.manoj Tiwari tu Lonavala pe dhyaan de, artist ko main dekhta hoon (Tiwari, you focus on Lonavala, I will handle the artist).” Manoj Bajpayee also spoke about the crossover and praised Raj and DK for their unique and unexpected ideas. He also mentioned the overwhelming response to the middle-class spy universe.

With an IMDB rating of 8.7, Farzi is now streaming on Prime Video in India and over 240 countries and territories.
