EXCLUSIVE: Disha, Kiara, Tara, Alia or Deepika: Who will play the Ichhadhari Naagin in the trilogy?
Pinkvilla has exclusively learnt that a trilogy on Ichhadhari Naagin is being planned right now. Many top actresses are being considered for the same. Read on.
At the time when period dramas and supernatural series have become a rage, Pinkvilla has exclusively learnt that a trilogy on Ichhadhari Naagin is being planned right now. Ichhadhari Naagin (shape-shifting serpents) has been one of the most interesting parts of the Indian folklore and has worked previously as well. With superheroes becoming a cliched, we hear Nikhil Dwivedi is planning a trilogy with a leading female lady.
While the project is in a very nascent stage right now, this piece of information has really got us excited. Given that shape-shifting serpents are not an easy character to pull, we wonder who would fit the bill perfectly. While all our female ladies have the oomph factor to be a superwoman, we feel Disha Patani, Kiara Advani, Tara Sutaria, Alia Bhatt or Deepika Padukone can easily transform themselves into looking the part. Disha has been making quite a noise ever since Malang, while Kiara is the lady of the hour with back to back success. Tara, on the other hand, is the current favourite debutante while Alia and Deepika have always been our favourite choice. Whom would you want to see play Ichhadhari Naagin? Vote and let us know.
Previously, we have seen Sridevi play the shape-shifting serpent in Nagina. There have been a few other movies which have shown the powers of snakes, including in films like Jaani Dushman: Ek Anokhi Kahani. Ekta Kapoor had recently revealed that earlier she wanted to make Naagin as a film, but since no one agreed, she made for television, and today, it is one of the highest-rated shows.
The idea of a shape-shifting serpent has been a hit on television as well in India and with Nikhil wanting to bring it to celluloid, we wonder what's in store for us.
