Karishma Tanna was introduced as the show's 'first Naagin.' However, the Internet was certainly not happy with Karishma's appearance. "We want Mouni Roy back" and "Karishma Tanna is a bad choice for
Naagin" were some of the several comments posted. Anita Hassanandini's look has received a mixed reaction.

Here's Karishma Tanna's look.
After the severe criticism,
Mouni Roy defended Karishma Tanna and wished her good luck. Karishma shared Mouni's video message on social media and wrote, "She (Mouni) has left a mark and her fans including me can't think of replacing her. It's a new season and I hope I can do the same justice that she did to the show."
Watch what Mouni Roy said.
After Karishma and Anita, the makers of
Naagin 3 will soon introduce Surbhi Jyoti's character. Anita will be seen as the antagonist while Surbhi will play a positive role. Actor Pearl V Puri has also reportedly been roped in for the male lead in
Naagin 3.
Anita Hassanandini currently features in Ekta Kapoor's hit show
Yeh Hai Mohabbatein, headlined by Divyanka Tripathi Dahiya and Karan Patel.
Naagin 3 is expected to go on air soon.
