The upcoming film adaptation of the beloved superhero Shaktimaan has stirred significant buzz in the industry, especially after Sony India secured the rights to produce it. Speculations about Ranveer Singh being cast as the titular character have taken social media by storm, but the production has faced numerous challenges. Original Shaktimaan actor Mukesh Khanna has expressed doubts about Ranveer’s suitability for the role, particularly after being upset by his recent nude photoshoot. The film is set to have a massive budget of ₹400 crores, and to ease financial concerns, the production team is considering selling digital rights. However, digital platforms are reportedly hesitant to back Ranveer Singh, suggesting that Ranbir Kapoor might be a more viable option. While Ranveer’s recent performances have not met expectations, Ranbir has regained popularity with his role in Animal. The fate of Shaktimaan remains uncertain as the production team navigates these challenges and casting controversies.
