Arjit
Taneja,
who
became
a
household
name
with
his
role
of
Purab
in
Zee
TV's
popular
show
Kumkum
Bhagya,
was
previously
seen
in
Bahu
Begum.
A
few
months
ago,
there
were
rumours
that
the
actor
will
soon
be
seen
in
Naagin
5.
However,
back
then,
he
had
denied
doing
the
show.
But
now,
Arjit
has
confirmed
that
he
will
soon
be
shooting
for
the
show.
The
actor
considers
it
a
great
break
as
he
will
get
to
explore
a
new
genre.
He
also
said
that
it
feels
like
he
is
back
home
as
he
had
shot
for
Kumkum
Bhagya,
three
years
back
with
the
same
production.
Although
it
would
be
a
cameo,
the
actor
will
be
seen
playing
a
pivotal
role
on
the
show.
Arjit
was
quoted
by
ETimes
as
saying,
"It
feels
amazing
to
be
associated
with
a
popular
franchise
like
Naagin.
Even
though
it
is
a
cameo,
I
consider
it
to
be
a
great
break,
as
I
will
get
to
explore
the
supernatural
genre
for
the
first
time.
I
am
also
working
in
a
show
produced
by
Ekta
Kapoor
three
years
after
I
exited
Kumkum
Bhagya.
It
feels
like
I
am
back
home."
He
further
added,
"It
will
be
challenging
because
the
technique
to
shoot
a
supernatural
thriller
is
different
from
a
daily
soap.
I
will
be
commencing
the
shoot
soon
and
will
know
how
I
adapt
to
it
only
then.
But
I
am
sure
it
will
be
fun.
I
have
never
joined
a
show
midway
and
believe
it
will
be
a
learning
experience."
Naagin
is
one
of
the
popular
supernatural
shows
on
television.
Although
the
fifth
edition
hasn't
made
it
to
the
top
5
on
the
TRP
chart,
it
has
garnered
audience's
attention,
thanks
to
Surbhi
Chandna
and
Sharad
Malhotra's
sizzling
chemistry.
Surbhi
and
Sharad
play
the
roles
of
Bani
and
Veer
in
the
show.
The
show
also
stars
Mohit
Sehgal
and
recently,
Priyamvada
Kant
also
joined
the
cast.
