Netflix India has officially announced one of its major upcoming releases for the year, Family Business, directed by Hansal Mehta, and unveiled its first-look teaser on February 3. The series stars Anil Kapoor and Vijay Varma in lead roles and revolves around the world of a powerful family-run business, layered with themes of rivalry, ambition, personal conflict and power struggles.
Taking to Instagram on Tuesday, the streaming platform shared the gripping teaser along with the caption, “New blood meets old money. With immense power at stake, the lines blur between family and business. Watch Family Business, coming soon, only on Netflix.”
The first teaser for Family Business is fast-paced and intense, taking place in India's competitive corporate world. The show seems to be a fictional business drama with a rivalry similar to "Billions," exploring boardroom politics and power struggles. The story focuses on the Davar Group, featuring Anil Kapoor as Jeh Davar and Vijay Varma as Sid Mehta, the group’s Chairman.
Anil Kapoor’s character is shown as a visionary billionaire who mentors a rising tycoon to eventually lead what is called India’s largest conglomerate.
However, the teaser quickly highlights a clash of ideas between these two powerful figures, setting the stage for a fierce showdown.
The intense face-off between the two business heavyweights is a central highlight of the teaser. Viewers are shown sleek boardroom battles, private jet travel and a dramatic moment where Jeh Davar orders the immediate removal of Sid Mehta. What follows is an all-out corporate war, with Sid declaring, “This is war,” as professional disagreements rapidly spiral into deeply personal rivalries. The escalating tension is further underlined by visuals of street protests and a burning effigy.
As the narrative unfolds, long-buried secrets come to light, alliances begin to crack, and the fight for control threatens to tear apart one of India’s most respected business empires. The teaser hints at how questions of legacy, loyalty and bloodlines can quickly transform the pursuit of power into a personal vendetta.

The team of Family Business shares: “Family Business explores the deeply complicated and messy personal relationships that define every boardroom battle of a family of tycoons. What happens when inheritance becomes expectation, and legacies collide? It's a ride unlike any other in a world never seen before. We’re excited for audiences to get their first glimpse of this world through Next on Netflix, and we look forward to revealing more of the story in the months ahead.”
In addition to Anil Kapoor and Vijay Varma, Family Business also features Neha Dhupia and Dhruv Sehgal in key roles. The supporting cast includes Raima Sen, Akash Khurana, Apara Mehta and Kanwaljit Singh, adding further depth to the ensemble-driven drama.
