#WhatIf: Naagin 3 Characters were to be Re-Imagined in a High School Drama!

Naagin 3 is new on the weekend binge list and we simply cannot get enough of the show. While skimming through episodes and character details, we realised the show would do amazingly well as a teen drama. It has all the elements it would take. Here's what the show would be like as a drama set in High School-

Emerald High is the school you want to be at in your final year. A new year is starting out and we know its a rife playground for new rivalries, crushes, exams and school spirit. Navigating through the corridors and social hierarchies would be like going through tumultuous waters and that's where all the thrill comes from. 

Anu is the classic girl next door. She is introduced with the perfect girl next door vibes and her pretty looks add to that charm. Anu is a photographer and we can easily imagine her staying back for photography sessions after class or volunteering to cover local town events for extra pocket money. She fits right into the archetype. 

One of the elder sons of the Sehgal family, being the son of the seond wife, Adi has something to prove. He will harbour a great ambition to make his own name and hence, join the basketball team and go on to become the captain. However, he will have his own vindictive side that shows up in inter-school basketball meets.  

Prim and proper, Maahir has a knack for management which shows itself in his teenage years. Maahir will be the typical preppy student who scores straight As. He also sets an example by signing up to be the class representative. While he isn't looking to date, he will have constant run-ins with the Queen Bee as he unwittingly captures her attention.

Bela is new to class and has trouble fitting in. The character makes her way through a lunch hall full of people she cannot seem to relate to. Her impressive academic record gets her a seat at the new fancy school but not on the popular kids' lunch table. She will later find a friend in the class rep who is directed by the principal, who gives him advice to help out the new transfer student. 

Vish was bullied in primary school and so she has returned to the final year of highschool with a makeover and a fresh new vendetta to destroy her bullies. She has her eye set on bringing the basketball team captain and anyone who stands in her way down. Vish has a newfound irritation against those not fashionable enough. She's here to rule the corridors or burn them if things don't go her way. 

Ady Sehgal is the school trustee and has a huge part in running the place. He has his sons enrolled in Emerald High so that he can keep a better check on them. His business ideology has lesser to do with education and more to do with profitting from rich families who send their kids to the school as a status symbol. He isn't in favour of the scholarship programme. 

Sumitra Sehgal is a kind, passionate woman who runs Emerald High and is really invested in student welfare. She often protects and counsels the children while maintaining a somewhat strict demeanor. She starts the scholarship programme to improve community outreach.
