Yes, friends of Shaktimaan, I am now officially stating that I am bringing Shaktimaan 2 soon. That too not on TV channel or OTT but as a trilogy, in the form of three films on the big screen).”

In the second part of his post, Mukesh Khanna added that: “Details dheere dheere hum disclose karenge. Filhaal itna bata sakta hoon ek bahut bade production house ke saath maine haath milaya hai is himalayan task ko anjaam dene ke liye (Details will be disclosed gradually. For now, I can say that I have collaborated with a big production house to bring his Herculean task to life).”

Mukesh Khanna has promised all his fans that this trilogy on Shaktimaan will be bigger than Hrithik Roshan’s Krrish and Shahrukh Khan’s Ra.One. Mukesh Khanna also shared the link of a Bollywood Hungama report, which states that work on the first film of the Shaktimaan series will begin in 2021.

Mukesh Khanna said in an interview with Bombay TimesFor the last three years, we have been working towards bringing out the second edition of Shaktimaan, which is contemporary, but rooted in our values. We were working on the sequel because people wanted to know, aage kya hua.” Speaking to Mumbai Mirror just a month later, Mr Khanna had saidThe new version of Shaktimaan cannot be how Ekta Kapoor makes Mahabharat (in 2008) by putting a tattoo on Draupadi’s shoulder. She had said that she was making Mahabharat for modern people. Sanskriti kabhi modern nahi ho sakti, putri. Jis din Sanskriti ko modern karoge, khatam ho jayegi’ (Culture can never be modern. The day you try to make culture modern, it will be over).

Shaktimaan is said to be the first superhero film that aired on Doordarshan from 1997 to 2005.
