Shaktimaan

As soon as Shaktimaan 'word' enters our ears we enter into the days of our childhood days when watching it was an important part of out weekends. This was the impact that this series brought in the minds of children, though not only children watch it. This was a mix of ethics with fantasy, education with entertainment, ancient wisdom with modern technology. This series was marvel of Indian television was technology had not reached high tides like today. Wonderful presentation along with brilliant storyline this was a brilliant work of its days.

He is the only superhero who became famous in india.

Have watched this show multiple times. Can watch it for more.

It amazes me how an excellent superhero stuff was made in the 90's with almost very little technical help. The visual effects were bad as compared to today's vfx world but it was brilliant as compared to the visual effects of the 90's.

Mukesh Khanna was like the superhero of Indian Television. First it was his character Bheeshma in Mahabharata and now in Shaktiman, he was just brilliant in both of them.

Story, concept, theme music, the characters, all the aspects of this show was brilliant. Mukesh Khanna as Shaktiman and Gangadhar was exceptionally brilliant. Vaishnavi as Geeta Vishwas, and the Surendra Pal as Tamraj Kilvish were brilliant in their part. Tom Alter was my personal favourite.

Kids from the 90's still remember the characters name like Kilvish, Dr Jaikal, gangadhar and Shaktiman. Till now people often quote the dialouges of Shaktiman.

Shaktiman was the first Indian Superhero and perhaps the best Indian Superhero story till date.

Talking about Shaktimaan, it is one of the best TV series of India. I got compelled to review the series by watching a negative review here.I don't have any idea how someone can find Shaktiman bad. It has got superhero, a heroin(Geeta Vishwas) and funny hero (Gangadhar) and also Dr. Jackal and Kilwish. Acting was good effects were okay for that time(and they haven't improved yet in India) .Overall it was too much fun to avoid. Surely if anyone watches it today they may find it bit bizarre but it was awesome at the it was aired. Indian small kids may never what a great series they missed. Also a special mention for the Kaladungapur Jungle episodes where we got a villain who was similar to Arnlod's Predator, those episodes were very very awesome.
