approach
and
will
be
introducing
the
story
to
this
generation
with
a
mini-series.
According
to
reports,
Captain
Vyom
was
a
hit
among
youngsters
as
it
was
the
first
Indian
futuristic
science
fiction
series
and
introduced
space
travel.
The
show
followed
a
crew
which
took
on
different
missions
and
travelled
to
different
planets
and
galaxies.
Soman
played
the
titular
role,
who
was
a
super
soldier,
assigned
by
World

In
an
interview,
he
had
claimed
acting
is
not
his
fulltime
career.
He
added,
"I
am
not
ambitious
to
do
so.
I
will
not
act
in
a
film
just
to
maintain
visibility.
I
have
other
avenues
for
that.
That
is
why
I
only
work
as
an
actor
if
the
script
or
the
director
is
interesting
to
collaborate
with." Milind was last
