Paalin Kabak shines in a powerful representation
The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|December 08, 2025
Paalin Kabak has become one of the memorable faces of The Family Man.
The series continues to pull in huge numbers, with millions of viewers streaming every new season (Season 3). It remains one of the most-talked-about shows of India, which is known for mixing action with real human stories. In this season, Paalin plays the character of Stephen Khuzou, a rebel leader who becomes one of the most layered characters in the story.
Stephen begins as the head of the MCA-S rebel group. Many people see him as someone blocking Project Sahakkar, a plan which was meant to bring development to the North East. His fight with Srikant Tiwari starts sharp, but it slowly becomes clear that Stephen carries the old family wounds. His grandfather trusts the system, while Stephen finds it harder to believe in them. Later in the season, he is framed by a group of billionaires who try to exploit the region. After Srikant realises the truth, he joins Stephen, and the two work together to save lives.
