Mumbai, July 20 (IANS) TV actor Mukesh Khanna is planning an animation series on his small screen superhero serial “Shaktimaan” and says it’ll make the character immortal. “The animation film on ‘Shaktimaan’ is expected to be out in one-and-a-half year,” Mukesh, who not only played the title role in it but also produced it, told IANS.
“I was planning it for quite some time because an animation film makes a character immortal and I want to take ‘Shaktimaan’ to that level,” he added. Mukesh, who became popular on small screen after playing Bhishma Pitamah in B.R. Chopra’s epic “Mahabharat”, said this project will be a big budget and that he will collaborate with some big company.
“An animation film can be easily dubbed in any language which makes it possible to reach to the international audience,” he added. “Shaktimaan” hit the small screen in late 90s and was quite popular, especially among the children.
Hey I’m Harish I’m learning animation arena multimedia. I heard that Mr.Mukesh Khanna is planning an animated series of Shaktimaan. I’m VERY HAPPY that my favourite superhero is gonna make a come back. Even I have planned a 3d animated series on Shaktimaan and am planning to launch by 2009-2010. I’ve also planned a big budget movie on Shaktimaan. I have re writed the script according to latest trend targetting the college dudes and telling the values in the college guys way. Ofcourse I din’t deviate from the original like the origin of superhero the way he gets powers e.t.c. But changed the origin of kilwish according to the way in which college youngsters like. I know and I understand how Sir Mukesh Khanna suffered in his 20 like the directors encouraged actors who had hit movies and I’ve decieded to cast Young people for SHAKTIMAAN MOVIE and I’ve planned to cast DANESH IRANI AS SHAKTIMAAN SINCE HE LOOKS LIKE A NATURAL CLONE OF GANGADHAR AND WILL FIT FOR SHAKTIMAAN ALSO. It was hard to me because I had very difficult time to replace MUKESH KHANNA because I COULD NOT IMAGINE A SHAKTIMAAN WITHOUT MUKESH KHANNA BECAUSE HE IS ICONIC AN I’M HIS NO: 1 DIE HARD FAN IN CHENNAI RIGHT FROM CLASS 4. The 3d animation I would like to animate Mr. KHANNA himself. Through this comment I request Mr. Khanna to contact me as he always want to encourage young fresh minds and young tallents. I also request this website incharge persons to deliver this comment to Mr. MUKESH KHANNA.
