Updated : February 16, 2024 03:18 PM ISTWhile Ranveer Singh has been roped in to play the iconic character of Shaktimaan, here are some other Bollywood celebrities who can play the other popular characters from the show.
It has been confirmed that Ranveer Singh will be stepping into the shoes of veteran actor Mukesh Khanna who had played the iconic Indian superhero Shaktimaan. The show aired on DD National between 1997 and 2005 and turned out to be a huge hit which is still adored by all the 90s kids. While Ranveer is all set to make us relive this iconic character, here are some other Bollywood actors who can play the other important characters from Shaktimaan.
Gita Biswas: Janhvi Kapoor or Tamannaah Bhatia
She played a reporter in the news agency where Shaktimaan’s alter ego Gangadhar worked as a photographer. She was the first to report about Shaktimaan and also played his love interest. Janhvi or Tamannaah might fit the bill perfectly to bring the charm and intensity of the character.
Tamraj Kilvish: R Madhavan
Tamjaj Kilvish is Shaktimaan’s arch nemesis and had the hit dialogue ‘Andhera Kaayam Rahe’ on the show. R Madhavan who will also be playing a negative role in Shaitaan might be the perfect one to essay this part.
Dr Jackal: Jackie Shroff
Dr Jackal is an evil scientist who works for Kilvish and poses new threats to Shaktimaan through his inventions. Jackie Shroff’s fiery aura can make him the perfect one for this role.
Kapaala: Sanjay Dutt
Kapala is an evil and eccentric Tantrik who works for Kilvish. He often locks horns with Shaktimaan through his creations. Sanjay Dutt who has also essayed the menacing Kancha Cheena in Agneepath can be the ideal one for this role.
1st Mahaguru - Amitabh Bachchan or Naseeruddin Shah
He was responsible for bestowing the knowledge and power to Gangadhar which helped him transform into Shaktimaan. Legends like Amitabh Bachchan or Naseeruddin Shah can play this character.
Satyaprakash Nirala - Pankaj Tripathi
Satyaprakash Nirala was the editor of the news agency where Shaktimaan’s alter ego Gangadhar worked. A versatile performer like Pankaj Tripathi might be the correct one to play this character.
