Ekta Kapoor’s third instalment of fictional TV series Naagin went on air last weekend. The show which stars Karishma Tanna, Anita Hassanandani, Surbhi Jyoti and Rajat Tokas has finally opened on small screen. To say the least, the fictional daily soap has rekindled our childhood memories of watching Nagina on Zee Cinema on weekends. Naagin 3 has opened to a promising start but only this week’s BARC report will tell how the show has fared on the smallscreen. The TRP numbers are also crucial to determine whether the new Naagins have managed to hold on to its reins after Mouni Roy and Adaa Khan’s departure from the franchise. Let’s have a look at the first impression of Ekta Kapoor’s Naagin 3.
Meet the spoilt brats of Naagin 3, Andy Sehgal, Yudi and friends
Andy Sehgal played by Chetan Hansraj is adamant on building a hotel on by pulling down a temple and a mansion. Despite being warned by the priest that the snakes protect the temple, he proceeds with his evil plans of shutting the religious place. He joins hands with his spoilt brat son Yudi and his friends to carry out his malevolent plan.
Ruhi aka Karishma Tanna’s sizzling chemistry with Vikrant (Rajat Tokas)
The Naagin Ruhi is celebrating the boon of getting a human avatar with his lover of 100 years Vikrant. The rich brats arrive the spot and sabotage their intimate moments. They molest Ruhi and kill Vikrant. With the help of Mahir (Pearl V Puri) they escape the site. Ruhi however, manages to capture the images of the perpetrators and vouches to avenge Vikrant’s death.
Veere Di Wedding cast Kareena Kapoor Khan, Sonam Kapoor’s cameo in Naagin 3
Veere Di Wedding actors Kareena Kapoor Khan, Sonam Kapoor, Swara Bhaskar and Shikha Talsania also joined the first episode of Naagin 3, however their first impression remains ineffective.
Fast-forward to six months later
The second episode introduces us to Andy and his two wives played by Rakshanda Khan and Pavitra Punia. Yudi is all set to tie the knot with Bela (Surbhi Jyoti) who is a shy and simple girl. While his marriage is on cards, he continues to flirt with Vishaka (Anita Hassanandani) who is at the same hotel. Vishaka lures Yudi to a secluded place and shows herself as a shape-shifting Naagin. The second episode reveals how Vishaka is actually Ruhi who is hell-bent to take revenge from Yudi and his friends. She manages to kill one among the ten, who were responsible for Vikrant’s murder.
