Naagin 7 EXCLUSIVE: Not Sumbul Touqeer Or Priyanka Choudhary, THIS Actress Approached For Lead Role?

Naagin 7 lead: Who will be playing the main role in Ekta Kapoor's Naagin 7? This is the question on everyone's mind ever since rumours about the show surfaced on the internet. The TV Czarina had dropped hints about the seventh season of her hit franchise when she appeared on Bigg Boss 16 to select Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia for Love Sex Aur Dhokha 2. While she never officially confirmed casting any of the TV divas, gossip mills suggested that two BB 16 stars are in contention to feature in the weekend drama.

While Naagin 6 is still on air, speculations about the lead of Naagin 7 have been rife on social media. It was said that Priyanka Choudhary and Sumbul Touqeer were in the race to bag the lead role in the upcoming show. Sumbul, who shot to fame after playing the titular role in Imlie, declined being a part of the supernatural drama, stating that she is too young to play the role of a nagin.

"The creative team is yet to finalise the leading lady of Naagin 7. All the energies are currently focused on Tejasswi Prakash's Naagin 6, which is churning out drama-packed episodes. Contrary to the rumours Sumbul Touqeer and Priyanka Chahar Choudhary have not been approached for Naagin's seventh season. One name which has popped out during the discussion is Krystle D'Souza. The actress enjoys a significant fan following and would make for a perfect nagin on the small screen. Things are at a nascent stage and an official announcement about the same can be expected after IPL 2023 ends," a source close to the show exclusively told Filmibeat.

Naagin 6 starring Tejasswi Prakash and Shrey Mittal is currently on air on Colors channel. The show, which was launched in February 2022, airs on weekends at 8pm.
