I too have been observing the similarities between Naagin 5 and Ishq Mein Marjawan Season 2:
1. Villain is a sexier character than perceived hero.
2. Forced marriage of Heroine n Villain.
3. Hero turns out to be a bad guy and is the mastermind behind Heroine-Villain marriage. He basically wants to destroy them.
4. Villain has a witty, sarcastic nature and keeps on teasing the heroine making her super angry. Only difference is, Veer is sleazy. Vansh is more reserved and dignified.
5. Villain even calls the heroine sweetheart.
I know, none of the above are particularly unique plotlines and have been used in other shows as well. But the overall culmination of all 5 points in both shows seems like a strange co-incidence.
