Ever since the announcement of Mukesh Khanna’s return as Shaktimaan came about, social media has been flooded with mixed reactions. While many are vouching for the desi superhero’s return to save Gen Z and teach them some moral lessons, many have been sceptical about the veteran hero’s return. Meanwhile, Mukesh Khanna has been quite active and vocal about his return and what it means for him.
However, a recent clip of his interaction with the paparazzi has been doing the rounds on social media. That seems to have angered many fans and netizens in general.
In the video, we see the erstwhile Shakitmaan speaking to the press until someone in the backdrop seems to catch his attention for interrupting or speaking loudly. While it is not clear what irked the veteran actor more, his reaction has surely caught the internet’s attention.
Several netizens shared their reactions on social media. A user wrote, “Jaya bachan is that you in shaktiman costume?” while another said, “Listen to Shaktiman quietly, he is our childhood Hero,” another commented, “Why is Shaktiman behaving like Kilvish.” Some laos posted hilarious comments such as “Ye gangadhar he achcha tha, “Dhire dhire pata chalega yehi Kilvish hai.”
Another person commented, “Tmraj kilvish please aake shaktimaan se humko bachalo we need you.”
Mukesh Khanna reprises his own Shaktimaan role
Recently, Mukesh Khanna announced his return as Shakitmaan. Sporting the desi superhero’s costume at 66, the actor confirmed that he will be reprising the role himself. While earlier there were talks of Ranveer Singh reprising the iconic role in a ‘Shakitmaan’ film, it seems that Khanna refused to let the actor play the part.
Khanna’s announcement about reprising the role himself did not go down well among his audiences.
Many stated their worries about the aged-actor doing stunts of a young superhero and claimed that the character will not sit well now, in this day and age.
