Highlights
- "We want Mouni Roy in Naagin 3, please," a user commented
- "Karishma Tanna is a bad choice for Naagin," read another comment
- Mouni Roy had headlined the previous two seasons of Naagin
"We want Mouni Roy in
Naagin 3, please," read a comment on Ekta Kapoor's post, after she introduced actress Karishma Tanna as the 'first
Naagin' of the show. "Here comes the first
Naagin. Karishma Tanna, welcome to
Naagin 3," is how Ekta introduced the actress. The Internet is definitely not happy with Mouni not being a part of the show. The previous
two seasons of Naagin, headlined by Mouni Roy, were hugely successful. "Karishma Tanna is a bad choice for
Naagin" and "no, no, no, Mouni Roy is the best and we all want her in this serial," were some of the several comments posted.
Here's Karishma Tanna's first look from Ekta Kapoor's
Naagin 3.
Qubool Hai actress
Surbhi Jyoti and Anita Hassanandani, best known for her role in
Yeh Hai Mohabbatein, star in lead roles in
Naagin 3. "With the already popular faces Mouni Roy and Adaa Khan missing from the screen, the makers decided to get well-known actors Anita and Surbhi in their places," a source earlier told
Indian Express. Surbhi will play a positive role while Anita will be seen as the antagonist.
Indian Express also reported that actor Pearl V Puri will play the male lead in
Naagin 3.
In January, Mouni Roy had shared a heartfelt note for Ekta and team
Naagin and wished everyone good luck. "I have been holding onto this emotion for quite some time now. But it's time to let go of something that holds a very large part of my heart. The show that gave me everything; Shivanya & Shivangi, embodying them was a privilege I was given by Ekta Kapoor. Thank you ma'am, I shall always be thankful and they'll always be a part of me," read an excerpt from her post.
Naagin 3 is expected to air on television soon.
