Disagree with what you said about anita and karishma. Anita really does fit into the naagin franchise, karishma was actually surprisingly good in this episode, otherwise I usually think nothing of her, although I really think rajat way overshadowed her, as he usually overshadows actors in shows anyways.


Surbhi on the other hand, I can't see why people like surbhi. Whenever I watch her acting, she's always overdoing the bubbly girl role, so I get annoyed, or where she has to enact a serious scene her voice ruins it. Her voice seems only fit to play a bubbly and playful role.

And thank god though I found someone who agrees with me on pearl. His acting was awful in life ok's nagarjun, a show that he ruined with his presence and one expression acting when he took over from the surprisingly younger and significantly more natural actor anshuman malhotra who was the lead before him. It was horrid seeing anshuman as the male lead in the show who was actually a really decent to very good actor, to then be replaced by pearl, who killed the entire show with his awful performance. I don't trust him to put on a good show in naagin either. What is wrong with Ekta? She's going to regret hiring him. 😆

To each your own
Tanna is past her expiry date.
Never could act much but now the fact that she is an old haggard spinster outweighs the fact that she is a sultry seductress.
She is an actress who bores me the moment when she enters the screen
Rajat what?
Overshadowing everybody with his Chhitiyal Overacting and Whiny squeaky voice?
Both Tanna and Tokas were fighting each other over who will overact and kill the scene better.
Anita...Maybe if she was not simultaneously coming on YHM as Shagun and was not an overexposed face of TV , she could have worked for me.
But no way.
I consider her as OTT-she no way has the charisma , screen presence and strong acting skills of Adaa
Uparse age is getting the better of her.
She is not even a funny and entertaining villain like Sudha maam.
Surbhi...She looks like a Transgender IMO
Horrible enunciation, Horrible looks , horrible voice...she literally makes me pine for Mouni to come back.
When I used to dislike her earlier LOL.
Atleast Mouni had oodles of grace ,dancing talent and a good voice.
Surbhi is a Fug.

Overall as bad as the story is(coming to it a bit later), it is the casting which kills the show in first look.
Very lazy, uninspiring and stale with the same old stereotyped actors.
No guts for experimentation castingwise.
Even Naagin S1 had people who were renowned for being stereotyped...but atleast they looked fresh and interesting for the time being unlike these fugly Aunties and Uncles who makes me bleach my eyes and tire out my brain.

The funky thing about Pearl is that he is supposed to be the main plot device around which the future story will revolve (McGuffin Naagmani aside) and is also hyped to be the eye candy.
Unfortunately for him, Pearl (honestly when he first appeared in the scene, I thought he is a "she") is neither talented enough to play such a "pivotal" role nor he is good looking enough to play the lead role.
Atleast Arjun back in the day was fresh enough and is a decent actor given proper role (his new show is helter skelter though).
But Pearl...I would rather swat him off the screen over tolerating 1 line of dialogue from his squeaky voice and horrible enunciation and that chindi smile of his that irritates me to the core.

And finally, the story.
I haven't seen any of the episodes yet, but it looks like a huge disaster.
Season 1 had a simple story with maa baba ka baadla and naagmani.
S2 though a trainwreck had a followable story which you can enjoy while keeping your brains outside the skull.
But S3 is WAY Too overcomplicated story wise IMO.
They have already made it a simple revenge love story, but the back story is too complex to handle for a layman.
Stacks of notes with flowcharts and all is not enough to understand the grand mess Kekta has created.
The script is horribly written too.
Already looks like a flop.

What I don't understand is that, why Kekta casts more qualified actors like Mishal Raheja, Neel Motwani and Ali Goni in side roles for her shows and then tries to put Irrelevant Jokers like that Dahiya and PVP down our throats as heroes?😲
It doesn't help that Surbhi looks like Pearl's aunty and Pearl looks like Anita's Chhotu Driver .🤪

This show with its faltu cast is an imminent disaster.
Naagin brand might help, but Kekta really needs to get her game straight else she is gonna suffer.😆
Oh, Kekta is big fan of jhaar fuunk and superstitions.
And none of Pearl's shows were hits and tends to be short run-infact, Naagarjun went off air within months of Pearl's entry🤣
Given the propensity of Pearl's shows being short run flops,Kekta shouldn't have hired him for TRP's sake.🥱
Thrice is not a coincidence lol.
Pearl ke kundali mein garbaar zaroor hai.😆

Pearl V Puri is NOT lead material. Sorry, but his character is over-dramatic and artificial. Also, he has ZERO screen presence.

Thank you! I second you on this. Any nagarjun fans here would know how terrible of an actor pearl truly is 🤢

Plz do refrain from saying such offensive things about transgenders. Let's just keep up the dignity of the forum. The age of an actress doesn't bother me so I won't comment about that. I'll admit that even rajat at times runs foul of overacting in certain scenes, but I personally loved him and found only him watchable in the first episode and I have followed (well more like stalked) his career since PRC days, so an obvious massive RT fan here. Mouni is a good dancer and there is no doubt about that, but acting wise she is not watchable for me. Even arjun I am a fan of mostly for his looks and loveable personality in real life admittedly, but I don't like his acting, although I think his acting is far better in his current show, maybe because he gets to do more than just play a lover-boy like in naagin. So I only watched season 1 because I enjoyed mouni-arjun's chemistry. I think Surbhi is gorgeous and loveable, but literally a non-actor. I can't stand her acting whatsoever.

"What I don't understand is that, why Kekta casts more qualified actors like Mishal Raheja, Neel Motwani and Ali Goni in side roles for her shows and then tries to put Irrelevant Jokers like that Dahiya and PVP down our throats as heroes?"

I totally get what you mean here. Aly goni and mishal raheja don't deserve to play joker side characters, and deserve a much better character to play. Aly is being wasted as romi now and barely gets screen space. Mishal's character as king in KKB is just cringy to watch (and the way his character has been styled makes matters worse). Mishal and Aly deserve better. Neel I haven't seen much of apart from the numerous out-of-the-blue appearances as raman's lawyer in YHM, and in waaris, and right now his character in kundali bhagya as that evil contractor was an absolute mess of a character, but apart from being very good-looking and actually a somewhat watchable actor, neel has a lot of improving to do performance wise IMO. I don't know why ekta gave him that joke of a villain character to play. No actor can pull off that shit. Vivek I liked in YHM, but literally ekta is giving him these shit-ass characters to play in her horrid attempts of trying to replicate naagin's success, that there is actually nothing for vivek to do with those characters, otherwise people seemed to like vivek a lot as the ACP before he married divyanka and was trying to get lead roles himself. I'm not really sure why people hate him, other than people accusing him of leeching off his wife's success (I hate when people say shit like this personally just to hate on an actor) but if he was given something other than dumb male lead roles in crap supernatural series, he would actually be enjoyable to watch, like when he played a villain in Ek veer ki ardaas...Veera. He was good in that. He should be given a villain role. But who is PVP????

Btw, why doesn't Mahir wanna get married? My first thought was, "Wow, so we finally have a non-campy gay character in a mainstream TV show".

its sad to see shivangi death...i did not expect such painful twist in S2...i wanted a Roshiv union...they never had a happy married life...i wanted a happy ending for them...the worst is we were waiting for an answer but we got none...we have to wait...maybe another season but whenever this mystery is being revealed...i only want kv-mouni-arjun in the cast...its their story...it started with them...it should end with them...furthermore shivangi is associated with mouni...she is the heart n soul of shivanya n shivangi...the audience will not accept anyone else as shivangi...shivangi did say she will come back...so lets see how how the mystery is solved
S3...the cast is good...lets give a chance as the story is fresh...S3 should be a different story...different presentation...i don't want it to be connected to S2...

Don't worry, we will get a proper ending for RoShiv's story. Ekta is not an idiot to let go of characters like Shivangi, Rocky and Ritik. She will definitely bring them back for another season.
