It’s Kartik Aaryan as new Shaktimaan Netizens dub it ‘career suicide’
After Mukesh Khanna’s dismissal of Ranveer Singh and Tiger Shroff as potential candidates for the role of Shaktimaan, Kartik Aaryan has emerged as a top contender. This development comes after Kartik’s performance in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and earlier ‘Champion’.
Mukesh Khanna, who played Shaktimaan in the original TV series, expressed reservations about Singh’s image and deemed Shroff too young for the part.
As per Media reports, the latest buzz is that Kartik has been approached for the Shaktimaan movie, and the Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 star is reportedly considering the offer.
This is really an incredible news since Kartik is already a fan favourite and has great appeal at the box office. It would also be fun to see him play a superhero for the first time. He is blessed with exceptional talents.
No sooner the news started doing the rounds on social media, comments poured in from all sides. While one Reddit user wrote, ‘This would be carrer suicide for Kartik Aryan’, another one added, ‘Not sure how true this news is but if you are a successful actor you should steer clear of this disaster…’
Of course, there are many who believe that Kartik as the new Shaktimaan could be a hit. While one user wrote, ‘Yes I totally see him playing this role. He has the youthful look and charm that you need for a young superhero’, another one added, ‘Kartik actually fits the role more than Ranveer.’.
Initially, there were rumours that Ranveer Singh would be cast as the lead in the Shaktimaan movie. However, Mukesh Khanna, the original Shaktimaan from the TV show, made it clear that he doesn’t want Ranveer in the role, citing the actor’s “image” as the reason. When asked about Tiger Shroff potentially taking on the role, Mukesh dismissed the idea, calling the muscular actor “a child among children.”
