The late 1990s and early 2000s saw the rise of Shaktimaan, a beloved superhero character played by Mukesh Khanna on television.
In 2022, when a film adaptation was announced, fans were curious about who would play the lead role.
Ranveer Singh's name came up, but Khanna has vehemently opposed it.
Now Lalit Parimoo, who starred in the original show with Khanna, has hinted that his comments could be a publicity stunt.
During a recent podcast with Siddharth Kannan, Parimoo was asked about Khanna's claim that Singh had tried to convince him for three hours to let him play Shaktimaan.
