Akash
Jagga,
who
is
currently
seen
in
Sasural
Simar
Ka
2,
will
be
replacing
Arjit
Taneja
in
Naagin
6.
The
former
will
be
taking
over
the
role
of
Farishta
in
the
Tejasswi
Prakash
and
Simba
Nagpal-starrer
supernatural
show.
Recently,
he
talked
about
entering
the
show
and
about
his
role.
Talking
about
his
entry,
Akash
said
that
he
is
excited
and
is
happy
to
have
gotten
a
chance
to
work
with
Ekta
Kapoor
again.
This
is
their
second
collaboration
after
Kasauti
Zindagi
Kay
2.
He
also
added
that
he
knows
only
Teja
and
Simba
in
the
show,
but
is
looking
forward
to
breaking
the
ice
with
his
other
co-actors.
Akash
was
quoted
by
Times
Of
India
as
saying,
"I
have
not
seen
the
show
before,
but
to
be
honest,
I
am
very
excited
to
be
part
of
this
show
because
it
has
so
much
buzz,
about
it
and
enjoys
a
massive
fan
following.
So
many
people
I
know
are
ardent
followers
of
the
show.
Joining
an
existing
show
half
way
is
always
tough,
more
so
if
you
are
replacing
a
popular
actor.
Comparisons
are
inevitable."
The
actor
mentioned
that
he
has
started
shooting
for
the
show
a
few
days
back.
He
said
that
since
there
was
little
time
for
preparation,
he
simply
followed
the
director's
and
writer's
directions.
Talking
about
his
character,
he
said,
"My
character,
Farishta,
will
be
different
from
the
characters
I
have
played
in
the
past,
so
it's
challenging
as
well
for
me.
For
the
first
time
people
will
see
me
in
a
supernatural
show.
As
an
actor,
I
am
sure
I
will
bring
something
new
to
the
table,
so
that
it
excites
the
audience.
I
am
sure
the
audience
will
like
me,
I
have
faith
in
the
makers."
