Mukesh Khanna further said in the interview, ‘I have not asked them to give it in writing, but the actor should be cast only after my permission. They have said that although they will definitely ask but the final call will be ours. This is where I got stuck. If I had been told this earlier, I would not have signed this film. I came to know about this from someone. When they showed me the agreement, I told them that you ask for my approval but do not listen to me, then what is the point of asking me?’

Mukesh further said, ‘Now the war has started. If you don’t listen to me, then go and make Shaktimaan without me. I cannot stop them because I have not given it in writing. I am a man of principles. I will fight as long as I can. If necessary, I will even drag Sony to court. I cannot release Shaktimaan’s songs and its music because I sold them to someone else by mistake.’
