Bollywood actor Shraddha Kapoor is set to don the naagin avatar for a trilogy titled Nagin to be helmed by Vishal Furia. The film, bankrolled by Nikhil Dwivedi, is being described as a love story.
Shraddha, who was last seen in Tiger Shroff-led Baaghi 3 earlier this year, said she was excited to play the shape-shifting serpent immortalised by many veteran actors, most memorably by late Sridevi.
Shraddha tweeted, “It’s an absolute delight for me to play a Naagin on screen. I have grown up watching, admiring and idolising Sridevi ma’am’s Nagina and Nigahen and have always wanted to play a similar role rooted in Indian traditional folklore.”
Before Shraddha mesmerises us with her portrayal of the nagin in the upcoming fantasy, here’s a look at the list of actresses who have played such characters on the big screen in the past.
