 The steel-handed phantom
 Mayavi, India's first 3D television serial, will be a part-science fiction and partly an action-oriented, spy thriller, says director of G V Films, A
Venkataramani.
"This genre had not been attempted at all in regional television. So it is a pioneering effort," Venkataramni added.
This serial would attract a wide variety of audience as it has everything one requires - thrill, suspense, comedy and home drama, he said, adding that this is the first-of-its-kind in the history of world television - a 3D television serial that will be a channel driver.
 "We can also make it more appealing by basing our episode on current issues.
There is also a scope for visual grandeur that would cut across viewers of all age groups.
Our hero character will be in the line of great heroes like Superman, Batman and Spiderman," Venkataramani claimed.

Synopsis:
The hero of the story is popularly known as Mayavi (steel-handed phantom). His real name is
Vikram.
He is an agent of a highly secret organisation known as President's XI. His code name in the oganisation is AXE-5.
 He is a highly skilled fighting machine with sharp brains that is needed for investigation. He loses his right hand in a covert operation, fighting the enemies courageously against all odds. Not wanting to lose such a great man, the organisation gets the top research scientists in the defence department to fit him with a special steel hand. The hand itself is a miracle of modern technology. Each finger of the hand is a deadly weapon. The index finger shoots, the middle finger discharges electricity, the ring finger emits a gas that makes people unconscious and the little finger has a transmitter built into it for the radio that is in the palm of the steel hand. The hand can also be detached and made to move by itself by a remote.
The special freakish power that gives the hero his name 'Mayavi' is the ability to become invisible for some time when charged with electricity.
With these special powers he becomes a living legend in fighting crime. He is the nemesis of all evil men throughout the world.
