Long before the world created by Marvel Studios, there used to be a superhero in our India’s TV industry, who used to rule the hearts of children. We are talking about the famous 90s superhero based serial ‘Shaktimaan’, which is considered to be the country’s first superhero. In that era, the character of Shaktimaan, everyone’s favorite, was played by Mukesh Khanna on-screen. His role was also appreciated by the audience as much as the character of Bhishma he played in ‘Mahabharata’. Seeing the popularity of this serial, now recently the film was announced on Shaktimaan. Now a big news is coming about the starcast of this film, in which the name of a big Bollywood star is coming out.
A teaser was released by Sony Pictures International Productions recently. The first glimpse of the film ‘Shaktimaan’ was shown in this teaser. Although the makers did not give any information about the cast and director of the film even then. But, now it is learned that a renowned artist of the industry has been approached for the film ‘Shaktimaan’. According to a media report, the makers of ‘Shaktimaan’ have offered Ranveer Singh to play the lead role in the film. The report also mentioned that Ranveer has shown keen interest in the proposal. But he hasn’t signed the film yet.
This superhero film will be made under the banner of Sony Pictures and Mukesh Khanna’s Bhishma International. The report further added, ‘The makers feel that Ranveer can play this superhero character naturally on screen. Talks are on with the actor and his team. When contacted Mukesh Khanna in this regard, he refused to give any information. But he has not denied the news either.
This film of Ranveer Singh, who was last seen in ‘Jayeshbhai Jordaar’, may have been a flop at the box office, but it has not affected his work much. Ranveer will next be seen in the film ‘Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani’. Apart from Ranveer, the film also stars Alia Bhatt, Shabana Azmi, Dharmendra and Jaya Bachchan. Apart from this, Ranveer has Rohit Shetty’s film ‘Circus’.
