Plus, he's good at cooking!
- Aditya (or 'Adi') is one of Shiva's friends. He likes to talk about how brave he is. But deep down, he gets scared easily. Adi always joins Shiva on his adventures. He is very loyal to his family and friends. He sometimes says he's a hero in his own village, just like Shiva is in Vedas City.
- Uday (or 'Udi') is another friend of Shiva. He gets hungry whenever he feels scared! Udi is also quite strong. When there's a mystery, he often thinks aliens are behind it. Sometimes Reva gets annoyed with him for always thinking about aliens.
- Reva is Shiva's best friend. She always supports Shiva. She truly believes that Shiva is powerful and can do anything. Reva is very intelligent. Shiva often saves her when she's in danger. She gets angry when Adi or Udi get scared over small things.
- Mr. Laddoo Singh is the Police Inspector of Vedas City. He is an honest officer but not very smart. In some episodes, after a criminal is caught, he claims to be Shiva's teacher. Shiva always helps him do his job. Mr. Laddoo Singh loves it when reporters interview him. He proudly says he caught the criminal with great bravery. This sometimes gets him into trouble. But everyone knows who the real hero is! He is one of the funny characters in the cartoon. He is a very easily frightened inspector.
- Pedaram is Mr. Laddoo Singh's helper. Sometimes when Laddo Singh tries to brag, Pedaram accidentally tells the truth.
- Nanaji is Shiva's maternal grandfather. His real name is Acharya. His special talent is singing Hindustani Classical music. He thinks he sings wonderfully, but everyone else thinks he sings terribly. When he sings, his voice is so strong it makes people fly away, like a tornado! Sometimes, this strange ability actually helps Shiva.
- Nani is Shiva's maternal grandmother. She always tells Shiva not to fight. When Laddoo Singh comes asking for Shiva's help, she tries to send him away. However, in an episode called The Last Ninja Fighter, Nani said she was okay with Shiva fighting criminals. She knew Shiva was fighting for the good of people and Vedas City. In another episode, Shiva Ka Vadha, criminals tricked Nani. They made her promise Shiva wouldn't fight anyone. But she understood what was happening and let him fight for what was right.

- Neha is Swami's niece. She has an amazing ability to figure out secret codes or passwords. She doesn't appear often, only in a few episodes like The Secret Code. In that episode, criminals tried to kidnap her to open a locker full of gold. She is not one of the main characters in the show.
