Last week I attended two school functions where I got immense love and kids were hooting loudly for me as ‘Shaktimaan’. Therefore, I feel the superhero series should be back again and I am trying to bring back the series on the small screen. Doordarshan is allowing it but I want satellite channels should come forward to air the series.Mukesh Khanna, Actor
Doesn’t that bring in a huge dose of enthusiastic nostalgia? If this one’s coming back, the current kiddies will surely get a better and meaningful show to watch. Finally something to move over Chota Bheem!
