Ranveer Singh Not Involved In Shaktimaan Reboot, Confirms His Team Amid Focus On Dhurandhar And Don 3

Official Word Denies Shaktimaan Rumors

In response to swirling media speculation, Ranveer Singh's team has officially dismissed claims that the actor is producing a revamped version of the iconic Indian superhero franchise Shaktimaan. The Bollywood superstar, known for his dynamic performances in films like Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, is reportedly focusing all his energy on current and upcoming major cinematic ventures.

Despite widespread reports suggesting Ranveer had acquired the production rights to Shaktimaan and was in talks with its original creator Mukesh Khanna, his representatives have now cleared the air. According to their latest statement, “There is no validity to the ongoing rumors that Ranveer is developing a superhero project based on Shaktimaan. At present, he is fully occupied with other high-profile projects including Dhurandhar and the eagerly awaited Don 3.”

Mukesh Khanna Previously Commented on Ranveer’s Interest

Earlier, Shaktimaan star Mukesh Khanna had spoken about a meeting with Ranveer Singh where the actor expressed interest in portraying the legendary character. In an interview with Bollywood Thikana, Khanna revealed that Ranveer had a lengthy conversation with him but added, “He doesn’t seem to possess the aura or sincerity that Shaktimaan requires. He felt a bit too unpredictable, although his talent and energy are unmatched.”

What’s Next for Ranveer Singh?

Ranveer is currently immersed in filming Dhurandhar, a gripping espionage thriller helmed by acclaimed director Aditya Dhar, best known for Uri: The Surgical Strike. The movie features a stellar ensemble cast including Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, R. Madhavan, and Arjun Rampal. Rumor has it that Dhurandhar takes cues from real-life covert operations inspired by India’s current National Security Advisor, Ajit Doval.

Following that, Ranveer is slated to begin work on Don 3, adding another thrilling installment to the iconic franchise.

Conclusion

While Ranveer Singh may not be stepping into the superhero boots of Shaktimaan, fans can still look forward to his powerhouse performances in upcoming action thrillers like Dhurandhar and Don 3, both expected to dominate Bollywood headlines in 2025.
