Mukesh Khanna, famous for the role of superhero 'Shaktimaan', has reacted to this role of Ranveer Singh. Mukesh Khanna has said a big thing about Ranveer Singh playing the role of a superhero. The actor took to social media to strongly oppose the casting speculations. The actor criticized Ranveer Singh's current photoshoot and questioned him on doing such a role. Mukesh Khanna talked about his concerns about playing the character of 'Shaktimaan' and said that despite Ranveer Singh's star power, he would never be able to play the character of Shaktimaan. He called Ranveer's nude photoshoot for the character of Shaktimaan childish and wrong for him.
Ranveer's nude photoshoot targeted!
After this, in a YouTube video, Mukesh Khanna advised Ranveer Singh that if he wanted to show off his body, he should look for roles in other countries where nudity is prevalent. 'You should go to another country like Finland or Spain. There are nudist camps. You go there and work in a film where every third scene has a nude scene.
Who can be stronger?
Mukesh Khanna further said, 'If he thinks he is smarter than us by showing his entire body, then avoid him. God is omnipotent. I told the producers that you are not competing with Spider-Man, Batman, Captain Planet. Shaktimaan is not only a superhero but also a super teacher. Only artists can do this if they speak and people listen. He is a great actor but his image comes in the way. There is no one suitable for this role right now. Regarding this, Mukesh Khanna said, 'If I had an actor in mind, I would have started the film by now.'
Is the actor of 'Shaktimaan' final?
He further said, 'If Shaktiman becomes powerful then he will have to be powerful because he will come as almighty. God is omnipotent. He is the strongest in the universe. He has everything. Physical casting is required. I have also said that if the film works, it will work on the content and not because of any superstar. Last month, reports claimed that the shooting of 'Shaktimaan' will begin in May 2025 with Ranveer in the lead role and it will be directed by Basil Joseph.
