Amitabh Bachchan- Mukesh Khanna Rift- Mukesh Khanna has left an indelible mark on TV with ‘Shaktimaan’. Mukesh Khanna has shown his acting talent in many films and serials, but even today he is especially remembered for ‘Shaktimaan’ and ‘Mahabharata’. These famous TV actors really wanted to make a mark in films, but this could not happen. Mukesh Khanna considers Big B as the reason behind his unsuccessful career in films. Let’s know the whole story.
New Delhi- Mukesh Khanna, who became a household name on TV as ‘Shaktimaan’, is not dependent on any identity today. Mukesh Khanna won everyone’s heart with his tremendous acting and powerful voice. Because of which many times ‘Shaktimaan’ has been compared to Bollywood’s ‘Shahenshah’. Actually, Mukesh Khanna’s acting style and his voice are very similar to Amitabh Bachchan, for which he had to suffer a lot in his career. ‘Shaktimaan’ himself shared an incident related to Big B.
Mukesh Khanna, who had gained popularity in every household by playing the role of superhero ‘Shaktimaan’ and ‘Bhishma’ in the serial Mahabharata, wanted to make a mark in films. Before turning to serials, this actor had also worked in 10-12 films and had also earned a good name. Not only this, he had also appeared in many ad films.
Few ad films of Mukesh Khanna were also quite popular. One such ad film of his was in which this actor was coming down the stairs wearing suit-boots and there were only girls around him. This ad was shown during a film and Amitabh Bachchan was also watching that film. ‘Shaktimaan’ had told during an interview that seeing his ad, Amitabh Bachchan called him ‘copy karta hai’.
Got the tag of ‘copy actor’
In fact, while sharing this incident during the interview, he had said that he had never heard this from Big B’s mouth. It was hearsay, so it is possible that he may not have said so. But the actor himself admitted that he is egoistic and it was a matter of his self-respect. Since then, this actor got the tag of ‘copy actor’. After this incident, Mukesh Khanna appeared in 4 films and all his four films were piled up at the box-office.
Identity made with ‘Bhishma’-
After flopping in films, he turned to the small screen and at the same time he got the opportunity to play the role of ‘Bhishma’ in ‘Mahabharata’. This role proved to be a milestone in his career. With this character, Mukesh Khanna gained popularity in every household.
