Desi Superhero is back again! - Shaktimaan is to hit big screens soon.

Do you remember the person who made you sit straight while watching the tv? Do you remember the person who always taught you manners? Did you guess who are we talking about? We are sorry, not sorry Shaktimaan! Because we cannot keep calm.

Indian filmmakers are slowly stepping in the verse of Superhero from Indian legacy and we are here for it.

Sony Pictures just announced through a teaser an adapted version of our all-time favourite Desi Superhero Shaktimaan. Could 2022 get any better for Bollywood fans?

Sony Pictures International Productions has acquired the film adaptation rights of India’s most popular superhero ‘Shaktimaan’ to reimagine it as a superhero trilogy for the big screen. It will be headlined by one of India’s major superstars.

The film studio has been actively scaling up its production in India, expanding its footprints in Malayalam, Telugu, and most recently in Tamil, apart from its exciting Hindi film slate. The studio has now partnered with Brewing Thoughts Private Limited (co-founded by ex-film journalist, Prashant Singh, and Madhurya Vinay), in association with actor-producer Mukesh Khanna’s Bheeshm International, to kick-start the work on recreating the magic of ‘Shaktimaan’, but this time for the cinemas. The superhero franchise is going to be helmed by one of the country’s top filmmakers.

This also marks the studio’s first entry in the Indian superhero space, having already dominated it globally, through the parent company, Sony Pictures Entertainment. The studio also plans to seek expertise from its headquarters in Culver City, Los Angeles to provide one of the unique cinematic experiences ever seen in Indian cinema using the latest technology in movie-making and post-production.

Shaktimaan remains India’s most iconic superhero brand. Its decision to bring back the people’s superhero is set to heat the Indian superhero space which has the potential to become a global success from India. We are so excited to learn more about this adaptation and release dates, this is a dream come true for many Millenials out there and we know that the wait is going to be worthwhile.

While we wait for more information on the subject, we have a question for you.

Do you think Gangadhar hi Shaktimaan hai?
