A Very unique concept

Hello! I was once upon a time, a very active member of IF!๐Ÿ˜† Hadn't been here for a very long time. Frankly, nothing interesting dragged me back, till now!

I am not a follower of hindi shows. Just watched, 2-3 here and there! Frankly, there aren't extremely good shows in terms of content made these days, especially on TV, I feel! Last one I followed was Radhakrishna maybe, but even that is totally ruined now!(Again, no offense to any fans here, just my personal opinion!๐Ÿ˜ณ)


Talking about Naagin, I never watched it. No offense, but the name itself made me cringe till now! Maybe, bad judgement from my side, but from the name, I assumed it to be a kinda of, vishkanya sorts show, where female snakes attack humans in human-form!๐Ÿ˜† Though, by hearing big names attached to every season, I use to feel, maybe, audience can like anything these days!smiley36

BUT, I was so WRONG!!! I gave a try to this season! ONLY for 'Sharad Malhotra'!โค๏ธ Have been an ardent follower of his work, since his Maharana Pratap days! So, when I heard he's a part of this show and especially A NEGETIVE ONE!!!!๐ŸฅณI got super excited! But still, that title of the show, kept holding me back๐Ÿ˜›until last week, when I saw sharad and surbhi's extremely sizzling pic on internet somewhere(It was outside police station or something). Damn, I lost it!โ˜บ๏ธโ˜บ๏ธโ˜บ๏ธ I have never heard of surbhi before. But that one picture, really cleared all my inhibitions and I literally binged watched all the episodes in just three days!๐Ÿ˜†


And, what can I say? I could only keep on rewinding veer-bani scenes!!! They are unmatchable! They both look so freaking compatible for each other in appearance! He is tall, dark, chiselledโ˜บ๏ธ and sharp featured; she is dusky, slim and slightly shorter than him! I mean, this is what I call, BANG ON CASTING!โค๏ธ I went all gaga over sharad AGAIN!!!I mean, words would fall short, how can anyone look so FINE?โ˜บ๏ธThe best part about both of them, is they both have perfectly sharp jawlines!!!! I found that very attractive!โค๏ธ


Coming to their respective roles! They are so unique! I initially thought, cheel means eagle!๐Ÿ˜† But its actually 'Black kite'(Though, same bird family I guess). But my my! Describing the couple in one word: 'Passion'! They really are 'ying to the yang'(as a snake is to an eagle๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž)


The story has really got me hooked!!! I love, how the story is unfathomable!๐Ÿ˜ƒ Though, am not very comfortable watching snakes, erupting from windows and bedrooms๐Ÿคฃ I ignore that, only to watch the main plot!๐Ÿ˜† But honestly, I don't want veer's character to be positive! I feel positive characters somewhat becomes boring after a while! I want him to remain grey at least till the end!๐Ÿ˜Ž Though, bani's character is a bit one toned!๐Ÿค“ Why is she only angry?๐Ÿ˜† I have never seen her smile much! Not even with jay! Who is the actor playing Jay btw?๐Ÿค“ He seems familiar to me! But he's too skinny for for his age!๐Ÿ˜† He didn't appeal to me much! I was soley focused on Veer-Bani!โ˜บ๏ธ


Sorry, for this long post, but had a tirade of emotions after finishing the latest episode! ONLY complaint is of the VFX and execution!๐Ÿ˜† They look super sloppy!๐Ÿ˜› But, said and done, coming at such distrubing times, especially from balaji, Naagin 5 is a pleasant surprise package! All credit to the team and specially, Veer-Bani!โ˜บ๏ธ


You can expect more such essays from me henceforth, please bear! This is the only channel, i can convey my thoughts!๐Ÿ˜†

Hey welcome๐Ÿค—


Loved your review really โค๏ธ


I've always been a fan of fantasy shows as in Indian ones they start of really well at the start and then the story kind of gets hosh-posch in the middle..

So I've watched all Naagin seasons except season 2 which was a tragedy in itself and left few after they got ruined namely season 4..so yeah I was really excited about this one as in first for surbhi and now sharad , been his fan since Dulhan days..


I hope they maintain this spiceness which Vani brings in their scenes and keep the thriller factor of the franchise intact!


You and your long essays both are duly welcome!๐Ÿ˜†

Hi!

Sharad Malhotra is doing a very good job as Veer. Veer is reckness, mannerless, powerful, obsessed and entertaining. I like the fact the hero of this season is as powerful as the heroine unlike other seasons. I mean I obviously like the hero, Mahir Sehgal of season 3. He was really sweet and innocent. He was an ideal husband but he was a human. Therefore, he couldn't protect himself against the negative characters. It happened in season 4 as well because the hero of that season was also a human. I agree that vfx is not good. The guy who is playing the role of Jay is Mohit Sehgal. He played the character of Samrat in a tv show, "Mile Jab Hum Tum" and he is popular actress, Sanaya Irani's husband. Btw, cheel means eagle. When I read the subtitles on Voot I saw cheel was translated as eagle.

@I was probably 3-4 years when dulhan aired!๐Ÿ˜†So, haven't watched it, but yes, heard a lot about it!

Coming to fantasy, its actually very difficult in itself to handle fantasy shows! Forget indian television, even in the west, its a challenge for them! Reason, it vulnerable of turning into comedy!๐Ÿ˜† Also, cost wise, myself being a VFX artist, it takes a hella time and intricate details to coin out good gigs!๐Ÿ˜† So, its understandable! But in here, VFX are very basic! Except Cheel and Saap, there are no other animals as such!๐Ÿ˜†


Coming to spice and thrill, yes! I so want it to remain intact! Its so easy to make a show predictable! Especially Indian TV shows!โค๏ธ The USP of Naagin 5 is THE ULTIMATE STRONG, MALE LEAD!๐Ÿ˜Ž Very very rarely you even find a powerful male lead! Veer-bani literally epitomises, feminism for me!(MEN AND WOMEN STAND EQUAL) I love when shows, give such strong messages in a subtle way! More power to Naagin and Veer-Bani!โค๏ธ

Hi Shirsha, I like your name! Unique one!๐Ÿ˜Š Yes, Veer is a very spicy and interesting character! But, again this rawness comes when the character is negative! That's why, veer should stay grey shaded!๐Ÿ˜›๐Ÿ˜Ž Bad boys kinda has a liberty to do literally anything you see!๐Ÿ˜† They could be excessively masculine at times or cutely feminine too!๐Ÿ˜† There characters have amazing developing graph!๐Ÿ˜†So, fingerscrossed!๐Ÿ˜ƒ

@Bold, yess!!! Totally Agree! That's what I said in the above reply! The USP of this show, is unabashedly Veer! He brings that much needed male balance against bani! #Feminism!๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜›๐Ÿ˜†

Thank you for liking my name. โ˜บ It's an uncommon Bengali name. I think Veer's character will remain grey shaded.

Yeah, all western shows are in my to-be-watched-when-I-have-sufficient-internet-pack list ๐Ÿ˜† but yeah have watched and read Harry Potter and yeah uske aage kuch nazar hi nai aata iss potterhead ko๐Ÿ˜†

Agree with you, Strong Male lead are rare occurance on tv especially ITV..so yeah we should be thankful for having Veer type character for Naagin 5 with Sharad as a Bonus..he is like completely different person in this one..total 360 degree change๐Ÿ˜ Kudos to him man!

Happy to see new viewers loving the show for all the great points highlighted. Bloopers aside (which are very few), and poor vfx aside, this is a show that deserves a lot of success. Hope trp continues improving steadily.

Hey welcome to forum ๐Ÿ˜›

Loved to read ur review ๐Ÿ’•

Well Mohit Sehgal is playing jay character & yes he is too skinny for naag role. He is look good in casual clothes but not in naag role.

About Sharad & Surbhi both are doing fantastic job with their respective characters especially Sharad

Dhoom macha raha hai veer ke charcter mein!๐Ÿ˜Ž

My reason is too watch the season is sharad & surbhi sizzling chemistry

Dono aag laga rahe hain screen mein
