Mukesh Khanna is known as Shaktimaan, Indian's first Superhero. He's also known as Bhishma Pitamaha from the iconic show, Mahabharat. And if you remember, even Ekta Kapoor came up with her version of the iconic show and Khanna slammed the show and the makers for ruining such a classic and historic story.
Speaking to Mumbai Mirror, the actor said, "Ekta Kapoor had said that she was making Mahabharata for modern people. If the serial name would be 'Kyunki Greek Bhi Kabhi Hindustani the', then I would accept Ekta's Mahabharat. Who has given them the right to slaughter an epic? They have changed the actual version of Devarath's 'Bhishma Pratigya' to something else and created a vamp-like image for Satyavati, among other things in the show. They tried to be smarter than Vyas muni."
