Mohit Duseja Bids Farewell To Naagin 7; Says Playing Kapil Will Be “A Lifetime Memory”

The journey of Naagin 7 is coming to an end, and actor Mohit Duseja is saying goodbye to a character that has left a lasting impact on him. The actor, who played the popular character Kapil in the fantasy drama, has opened up about his experience on the show and the memories he will carry with him.

For Mohit, being associated with Naagin 7 has been a special chapter in his career. Reflecting on his journey, the actor described it as an unforgettable experience that surprised him in many ways.

Speaking about his time on the show, Mohit said, “It was an amazing experience to be part of this show. Playing Kapil will be a lifetime memory.”

Kapil emerged as one of the season's memorable characters. The role offered multiple layers, allowing Mohit to portray two very different sides of the character. On the one hand, Kapil was a cheerful, fun-loving printing press owner who enjoyed life and often brought lighthearted moments to the story. On the other hand, he carried a complicated supernatural past as an ex-Naag, which added depth and mystery to his personality.

Talking about what attracted him to the role, Mohit shared, “Kapil’s a walking contradiction: fun-loving press owner by day, ex-Naag with a messy past by night. He’s all jokes on the surface, but that supernatural baggage gives him an intense edge he’s always hiding. That duality blindsided me. Nothing like my past roles.”

The actor explained that the character's contrasting nature made Kapil stand out from the roles he had previously portrayed. The balance between humour and emotional intensity allowed him to explore a completely different side of his acting abilities.

A Character That Felt Real Despite The Fantasy

While Kapil existed in a fantasy world filled with supernatural elements, Mohit found several aspects of the character relatable. He particularly connected with Kapil’s middle-class background and the daily struggles that came with it.

According to Mohit, the character’s efforts to manage responsibilities while dealing with personal challenges felt realistic and familiar.

Sharing his thoughts, he said, “100%. Middle-class means hard work plus small joys. Kapil’s grinding with printing-press bills by day, chasing his love life by night. That juggle is stressful, messy, but also beautiful. I get that hustle. That’s the thrill.”

The actor believes that this balance between responsibility and personal aspirations is something many people can relate to, which is why Kapil’s journey connected with viewers.

Apart from the character itself, Mohit also experienced the immense popularity of the Naagin franchise through its passionate fan base. Over the years, the show has built a loyal audience, and Mohit got a firsthand experience of their enthusiasm.

He revealed that fans regularly reached out to him on social media and that some of the reactions were completely unexpected.

Fans Turn Everyday Moments Into Lasting Memories

Recalling one of the most unusual fan encounters he has experienced, Mohit shared a story that left him both surprised and amused.

He said, “DMs were wild. Some I can’t repeat! The craziest IRL moment? I went to the washroom and got spotted. They rushed in for a selfie right there. It was super awkward, but also hilarious.”

While the situation was awkward at the time, Mohit looks back on it as one of the most memorable fan interactions of his career.

Speaking further about the experience, he added, “Memorable? 100%. This fandom’s energy is unmatched.”

As Naagin 7 reaches its conclusion, Mohit is walking away with much more than another project on his resume. The show gave him a character that challenged him creatively, connected with audiences, and allowed him to experience the passion of one of television’s most dedicated fan communities.

For the actor, Kapil was more than just a role. It was a character filled with contrasts, emotions, and memorable moments that will stay with him for years to come. As he bids farewell to Naagin 7, Mohit carries with him an unforgettable journey and a character who has become one of the most special parts of his career.
