Shaktimaan the Cartoon Series
Shaktimaan is a 26Ep x 24 Min animated action series about a young college student named Vehaan Arya who has trained with 7 guru masters in the Himalayas and gained amazing yogic super powers. But when another of the gurus’ students, Kilvish, turns his powers toward evil, Vehaan is forced to leave the Himalayas and go to the big city where he takes on the super persona of Shaktimaan in order to stop Kilvish from wreaking global havoc.
Shaktimaan is the greatest “Indian Yogic Hero” who has been an icon for an entire generation of kids in India. The greatest aspiration that Shaktimaan passes on to the kids is the fact that “There is a hero in each one of us”.
Shaktimaan in his heroic avatar will be a powerhouse of super powers, dedicated towards foiling Kilvish’s evil plans and saving the human kind specially kids in order to make earth a safer place to live in. In his alter ego, Shaktimaan is a software genius who specializes in coding the most effective security scanners with his senior – a mad professor at the helm. While creating various security coding for their clients, they both are also masters of diagnosing any approaching danger through their super advanced software supports that they have created together. Shaktimaan’s love interest is a young lady who is a video journalist and while trying to cover the crisis that occurs every now and then she gets entangled in the situations and Shaktimaan comes in as the savior.
Shaktimaan is one among us, a young man with a good heart, standing tall as a savior of humanity, reminding us of who we are while unearthing and uprooting all evil, with a single purpose of saving this world, saving his world. Confidential Information Shaktimaan’s greatest enemy is the dark lord Kilvish. His motive is to create a reign of darkness all over the world. The seven Yogic Gurus in Himalayas understood his evil motives and combining their strength they created the “Shatimaan” the strongest yogic hero to combat every evil motive of Kilvish. Between Kilvish’s evil plans of complete dominance over our planet stands one single entity, Shaktimaan. With his endless powers, Shaktimaan in every episode will foil Kilvish’s dark plans bringing hope and security among the people and smiles to the kids. Shaktimaan in his alter ego along with his mad professor will sense the evil plans of Kilvish through their super computer – the security tracking devise.
Shaktimaan will also have his superpower of highly evolved audio sensibility by which even before the computer can detect the threat, he will get the sounds of the impending danger and once he concentrates, his mind will generate the visuals of the location where Kilvish is supposed to unleash his evil plans. This will propel Shaktimaan to transform into his heroic avatar and rush for saving the day. The comic elements of the series will be provided by three regular characters, the mad professor who every time comes up with weird hypothetical solutions so complex and half way down he himself forgets where he had started from. By the time is finished with his relentless scribbling of equations and formulas to tame the situation Shaktimaan solves the situation and comes back in his alter ego as the software genius only to find that the professor is finally ready with his solutions. Also the weird gizmos he creates as weapons for his hobby will be a constant source of comedy.
Confidential Information The second comic relief of the series will be the Interpol officer who perceives himself as the savior of humanity and believes that he alone can take care of any contingency. But since Shaktimaan sorts out the situation every single time, our sleuth’s ego gets badly bruised and hence he considers Shaktimaan as his biggest rival and it creates the platform for conflicts between them. The third comic relief will be Shaktimaan’s girlfriend with her finicky and dominating character. She is good at heart, but her talkative and proactive nature definitely brings in an element of lighter moments in the narrative. In all, the series is expected to communicate deep emotional attachments between Shaktimaan and kids, portray colossal battles between good and evil and take the audience on a whirlwind journey of action, emotion and comic interludes all interspersed in an engrossing narrative. Keeping in mind that the magnitude of obstacles that a hero faces and overcomes is directly proportional to the interest level of the audience, the effort will be to make “Shaktimaan” turn out as the greatest savior of humanity and thus capture the audience’s attachment to the series
TV Series Version of Shaktimaan:
After being born as Shaktimaan, the protagonist sets out to destroy his archenemy Kilvish. But, the Mahaguru explained to him that Kilvish can only be defeated after evil is destroyed. Hence then onwards, Shaktimaan’s mission became to destroy the sin within people, not the people who commit the sin. Shaktimaan continues with his work of persuing justice and saving people while on the other hand, TamrajKilvish along with his minions, never ceases to chalk out plans to destroy Shaktimaan. .The crystal, ―PaapPunj‖, possessed by TamrajKilvish is the only thing that can make Shaktimaan powerless as the crystal is filled with all the evils in the world and is the source of the black powers. If he is treated violently to the verge of death with the crystal placed in front of him, it can be fatal to him. However, he can regain his strength after the crystal is taken away from him.The ‘ PaapPunj’ is very similar to the kryptonite, an ore form of a radioactive element, which makes Superman terribly weak. Much later Shaktimaan came to know the he is the reincarnation of ShriSatya, only who can kill TamrajKilvish. 6000 years ago, ShriSatya had given the exact time of the child’s birth, who will bethe reason of Kilvish’s death. Kilvish knew it himself and hence was scared upon arrival of Shaktimaan. As a defense mechanism, he killed Shaktimaan’s parents and his adoptive father, PanditVidyadharShastri. But he has always failed to kill Shaktimaan. In the television series, Kilvish is portrayed as the personification of darkness itself. In spite of being a human being once, the desire to be immortal made him to take means which made him very powerful and thus he committed many evil deeds. In an attempt to become immortal, he left his mortal body and took an ethereal body which is indestructible. But only if Shaktimaan can nullify all the evil in the world, Tamraj’s ethereal body will be destroyed. Kilvish’s trademark quote is “AndheraKaayamRahe” (May Darkness Prevail), which is also used by his followers. Kilvish’s character evolves as the series progresses. In the opening episodes of Shaktimaan, his face is never shown. But Later his face deforms to become a distorted wolf like countenance . His minions include Electric-man (who can shoot lightning bolts from his body), Stone-man (who can shoot stones from his body), Plastica (who can stretch any part of her body), Dr.Jaikal (an evil scientist) and many others. Among them, Dr.Jaikal is shown most skilled. Dr.Jaikal has helped Kilvish in his various schemes by cloning Shaktimaan and also by turning aliens against him. Dr.Jaikal is an evil scientist who works for Kilvish. He has been shown as the most skilled among all who work for kilvish. His skills havebeget him some power in the world of darkness. Being denied scholarship for research, he lost all hopes on the world and when Kilvish provided him with funds and labs, he becomes a supporter of Kilvish& an evil scientist. He is overall a brilliant scientist, and specializes in cloning and various energy rays. His created Kekda Man (a clone formed by fusing cells of Crab & human), JonkJonkaa (a clone using leech), an evil clone of Shaktimaan, Plastica, Lightman, 3D image, Super-heroine Sunanda and others in order to destroy Shaktimaan. He also invented a height control solution and fictional EC- rays. As the target audience was mostly the children, Shaktimaan is shown to teach hygiene and moral values to the children. At the initial phase of Shaktimaan getting aired on Doordarshan, a lot of controversy stirred around Shaktimaan as the media reported that several children set themselves on fire or jumped off buildings hoping that Shaktimaan would save them. In an effort to promote responsible behavior among children, MukeshKhanna spent a substantial part of the airtime in explaining to the children that the stunts shown on television were not real and should not be tried at home. The very opening title track speaks volumes about the theme of this serial. The song describes Shaktimaan as the face of indomitable courage, a savior of humanity. He is not an incarnation or a superhuman. He represents the awakening of the power within ourselves which can change the world. When we are aware of our full potential, able to awake our strength and channelize it towards the betterment of humanity, that is when, we bring out the Shaktimaan in ourselves. Shaktimaanwas one of the most influential, most popular and longest running television series made for children in Doordarshan. He has been featured in Wall Street Journal on the front page reflecting on Shaktimaan’s (and hence Khanna’s) positive influence on children. It was also in news that the then External Affairs Minister of India and the Prime minister of India, AtalVihariBajpayee praised the eponymous character. In the wake of the 2001 Gujarat Earthquake, MukeshKhanna toured the affected areas in character as Shaktimaan boosting hope and offering relief to the victims. Shaktimaan shares a deep connection with the other superheroes of the same genre. As all the three other characters, who contributed to shape the character, Shaktimaan also sports an alter ego, PanditGangadharVidyadharMayadharOmkarnathShastri in order to avoid being an easy prey of TamrajKilvish. The character Gangadhar is completely opposite to that of Shaktimaan in all aspects e.g. appearance, intelligence and he speaks in pure Hindi. This phenomenon of dual but contrastive identity can be observed in Superman as Clark Kent, in Spiderman as Peter Parker and also in Batman as Bruce Wain.
