Ekta
Kapoor's
supernatural
franchise,
Naagin
has
been
hitting
the
headline
since
a
while
now.
There
was
a
lot
of
confusion
about
Naagin
4
going
off
air,
but
recently,
Ekta
took
to
social
media
to
clarify
the
reports.
She
revealed
that
Naagin
4
is
indeed
going
off
air
and
viewers
will
get
to
watch
a
fantastic
finale.
She
also
added
that
they
will
start
off
Naagin
5
soon.
The
producer
also
revealed
that
they
will
be
casting
soon
for
the
show.
Ever
since
then,
there
has
been
speculation
of
whom
Ekta
would
cast.
Recently,
it
was
said
that
Beyhadh
2
actor,
Shivin
Narang
is
in
talks
with
the
makers.
The
latest
report
suggests
that
ex-Bigg
Boss
contestant
Mahek
Chahal
is
being
considered
for
the
show.
As
per
a
Pinkvilla
report,
Mahek
has
been
roped
in
to
play
the
role
of
naagin
in
Naagin
5.
A
source
revealed
to
the
portal,
"Bigg
Boss
5
runner-up
has
definitely
been
approached
and
things
are
being
discussed.
As
the
channel
has
slashed
down
production
costs
by
almost
30%
for
everyone,
the
makers
are
looking
to
cast
a
relatively
newer
face
who
is
not
too
much
of
an
expensive
resource."
But
when
the
actress
was
asked
about
the
same,
she
denied
the
news.
However,
the
Pinkvilla
sources
maintain
that
she
is
for
sure
being
considered.
It
has
to
be
recalled
that
in
2016,
Mahek
had
worked
with
Balaji
Telefilms
in
Kavach.
The
shootings
of
television
shows
might
begin
from
next
week.
Earlier,
Naagin
4
actor,
Vijayendra
Kumeria
had
revealed
that
they
will
be
shooting
the
ending
episodes
after
lockdown
is
lifted.
Apparently,
Balaji
Telefilms'
shooting
in
Naigaon
might
begin
from
the
second
week
of
June.
