Two years were lost to the COVID era, and the other two got tangled in controversy."

He added further, "Ranveer Singh was very eager—desperate, even—to do Shaktimaan. I’ve said many good things about him. But in the end, I had to clarify: I never said he is Shaktimaan. I praised his performance, his energy—he spent three hours with me and was very passionate about the role. But I want to see Shaktimaan as Shaktimaan. I’ve lived with that character for 30 years. So today, I can’t tell you whether Shaktimaan is coming or if it even should come.
