The popular supernatural TV show Naagin is preparing for its seventh season, and rumor has it that Priyanka Chahar Choudhary will be playing the lead. Having already impressed with her strong performance in Udaariyaan and as the second runner-up of Bigg Boss 16, Priyanka could soon become a part of the list of iconic women who have led this popular franchise.
A Legacy of Leading Ladies
If true, Priyanka will be following in the footsteps of earlier Naagin actresses such as Mouni Roy, Surbhi Jyoti, Nia Sharma, Surbhi Chandna, and Tejasswi Prakash—each with their own special charm in their respective roles. Although Colors TV and producer Ektaa Kapoor aren’t officially commenting, ABP’s Saas Bahu Aur Saazish has claimed that Priyanka has been finalized to feature on the show.
Colors TV released a teaser on August 24 confirming that Naagin 7 is being worked on, raising excitement among the fans for the new installment in the fantasy series.
Fan Frenzy on Social Media
The instant reports of Priyanka’s casting went online, fans overwhelmed X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram with celebratory tweets and posts. “Welcome Priyanka ????,” one fan tweeted, with another posting, “If it’s true, then super excited!” Fans complimented her acting abilities, terming her “most suitable” for the much-desired role.
A Cult Supernatural Phenomenon
Launched in 2015 with Mouni Roy as the original Naagin, the series has consistently captivated audiences with its blend of fantasy, melodrama, and shape-shifting mythology. Season 6, led by Tejasswi Prakash, concluded in July 2023, and the franchise has since adopted a format of featuring a new female lead each season.
With a teaser already released and rumors running high, everyone’s waiting with bated breath for Naagin 7—and Priyanka’s reported entry only fuels the frenzy.
