I believe that the new Shaktimaan will not connect with children the way I do. I have the branding of this character for 30 years. I told the channel that I am not saying that I want to become Shaktimaan. I am Shaktimaan and this film cannot be made without me. People are saying that I have work now, but what does that mean? This is my production". Mukesh Khanna expressed disappointment Mukesh Khanna also expressed disappointment at Sony for allowing rumours to spread about Ranveer Singh's casting, which forced him to publicly address the matter. The actor shared, "I am bound by a contract with Sony International that I will not discuss details, but still I spoke up because Sony spread it everywhere that this boy is playing Shaktimaan, that boy is playing Shaktimaan. Everyone started believing that he is playing the role and he did not deny it. I felt something was cooking. I stood up and announced that I am not agreeing to him playing the role of Shaktimaan".

Just being an actor is not enough to play Shaktimaan. You need to have the right face. I am stuck on Ranveer's face, I am not stuck on his talent. People remind me that he has done a lot of work. He has played Khilji. I told him, 'He is a good actor but I am not satisfied with his face and his looks'."
