From weird creatures to some out-of-the-world plot twists, Naagin makers leave no stone unturned to garner top TRPs. This includes casting the top telly actresses for the lead role. From Mouni Roy to Nia Sharma, our Naagins have always managed to charm the audience. But have you ever wondered who’s the highest-paid Naagin of ’em all? Scroll down to find out:
Who’s That ‘Naagin’?
Ekta Kapoor launched her dream project, Naagin in 2015. The first actress to be cast in the show was Mouni Roy. She played the double roles of Shivanya and Shivangi and set the bar pretty high. As the seasons progressed and the show gained popularity, we saw some of the biggest names in the telly world playing the role. These actresses included Nia Sharma, Adaa Khan, Surbhi Jyoti, Surbhi Chandana, Karishma Tanna, and Anita Hassanandani. The most recent actress to play Naagin was Tejasswi Prakash.
Well, any guesses for the name of the highest-paid Naagin of them all? It is *drumrolls please* Tejasswi Prakash! Teja, who played the role of Pratha on the show reportedly charged Rs 2 Lakhs per episode. However, there’s a catch.
Giving a tough completion to Tejasswi, Mouni Roy reportedly charged Rs. 1.5 Lakh- Rs. 2 Lakh per episode back in season 1.
Who Will Be The Next Face Of Naagin?
According to the grapevine, Ekta Kapoor is ready to launch the seventh season of Naagin with an entirely new cast. The interesting bit? Fans are convinced it’s going to be none other than Priyanka Chahar Choudhary! The speculations started when a small clip of an actress walking in the Naagin outfit was teased online. The caption read, “Aap dekhenge ek nayi naagin ki kahaani. Kaun hogi wo naagin o ki naagin? (You will soon watch a new Naagin’s story. Who will be the new Naagin?)”
Is this Pari ?????
