Mukesh Khanna recently spoke about such rumors regarding Ranveer Singh being considered for the show as Shaktiman. The actor, who had previously denied it, has now elaborated the reason behind it. During the interview with Bollywood Thikana, Mukesh unveiled that he has a lot of issues with Ranveer right from his nude photoshoot which sums up his distaste for casting him.
When asked his meeting with Ranveer and why he feels that the actor cannot be suitable to play Shaktimaan, Mukesh said, “I don’t take names as I am not supposed to criticise any actor. People get offended. But now everyone knows that Ranveer Singh came to convince me. I can’t hide it that I had called him a ‘terrific actor’ and praised his ‘energy’. People started posting pictures on social media as if Ranveer had been finalised to play Shaktimaan. Since, I hadn’t taken a call on it as I have a contract with Sony, I posted a video where I said, I have not said anything about the lead actor so please wait for sometime.”
He explained that Ranveer’s nude photoshoot was one the one things that started his aversion to him.
