For the past few weeks, there have been strong rumors that Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh is planning to star in a movie based on the Indian superhero Shaktimaan. Fans were excited at the thought of seeing him in a superhero role. Some reports also claimed that even if he doesn’t act in it, he might be producing the film. Now, his team has finally responded to all the speculation.
Is Ranveer Singh the New Shaktimaan?
Ranveer Singh is known for his versatile acting and energetic screen presence. He has successfully played a wide range of roles – from comedy to serious drama and even historical characters. Because of this, the idea of him playing Shaktimaan quickly caught attention.
At first, it was said that Ranveer would play the lead role. Later, new reports claimed he would instead be involved as a producer. These claims only added to the confusion among fans and the media.

His Team Breaks the Silence
To clear the air, Ranveer Singh’s team has now officially denied all reports about him buying the rights to Shaktimaan. They stated that there is no truth in the news that Ranveer has purchased the rights or is planning to act in or produce a film based on the iconic superhero.
Currently, Ranveer is busy working on his upcoming project directed by Aditya Dhar, and after that, he will start filming for Don 3. His packed schedule shows that there are no plans related to Shaktimaan at the moment.
Mukesh Khanna’s Statement Sparked Rumors
The buzz around Shaktimaan and Ranveer Singh actually started last year. Mukesh Khanna, the original Shaktimaan actor, once shared in a podcast that Ranveer had shown interest in playing the role. According to him, Ranveer even waited for three hours to get a confirmation from him.
However, Mukesh Khanna eventually refused to give him the role. Since then, multiple stories started circulating — some saying Ranveer would play Shaktimaan, others saying he would produce it. These rumors have now been completely denied by Ranveer’s team.
Busy With Big Projects
Ranveer Singh continues to be one of Bollywood’s most dynamic and talented actors. His performances in films like Bajirao Mastani, Padmaavat, and Band Baaja Baaraat have proven his wide range of skills.
Currently, he is deeply involved in his upcoming films, which include:
- Don 3,
- Baiju Bawra, and
- An untitled project by director Aditya Dhar.
These big titles show that he has a full lineup ahead and is focusing on those rather than any Shaktimaan project.
Conclusion
The idea of Ranveer Singh playing or producing a film on Shaktimaan may have sounded exciting to fans, but for now, it remains only a rumor. With his team officially denying the reports and his schedule packed with major films, it’s clear that Shaktimaan is not on the cards — at least not for now. Fans can still look forward to seeing Ranveer shine in his upcoming roles, especially in Don 3 and other high-profile projects.
