Actor Mukesh Khanna, who wowed the Indian audience with the tele-series Shaktimaan has finally broken silence on reports of superstar Ranveer Singh headlining a film on the superhero which is in the works.
Mukesh took to Instagram and wrote in Hindi, “For several months, social media has been filled with rumours of Ranveer playing Shaktimaan, which has upset everyone. I have been quiet, but ever since channels have begun declaring that he has been signed, I have to break the silence. I have said that a person with this image, no matter how big of a star, cannot be Shaktimaan.”
