Mumbai: Ever since Priyanka Chahar Choudhary made her smashing entry in Bigg Boss 16, she has been the center of attention and has captivated audiences with her dynamic presence. This heightened interest has naturally led to speculations about her next career moves, with recent rumors suggesting that she would be taking on the lead role in Ektaa Kapoor’s much-anticipated Naagin 7, following in the footsteps of Bigg Boss 15 winner Tejasswi Prakash.
The buzz around Priyanka stepping into the serpentine avatar has intensified with the circulation of a photo purportedly showing her as the next Naagin, which has gone viral on social media. Fans have been rife with excitement, voicing their eagerness to see her star in the popular supernatural series. Yet, this anticipation may need to be tempered, as Priyanka has publicly refuted these claims.
In an exclusive interview with Pinkvilla, Priyanka addressed the swirling rumors. “No, I am not doing Naagin,” she clarified. Despite the speculation and the manipulated images, Priyanka confirmed she is not taking part in the seventh season of the iconic series. This statement is likely to come as a disappointment to many fans who have been eagerly awaiting confirmation of her involvement in the show.
The rumors about Priyanka’s participation in Naagin 7 gained traction on various social media platforms, where her edited images as the serpentine goddess were widely shared. This digital proliferation only fueled the speculation, making it seem almost certain that she was the next in line to don the Naagin avatar. However, her recent statements have put these speculations to rest, at least for the time being.
The focal point of fans’ curiosity largely stems from the success and popularity of Naagin 6, which starred Tejasswi Prakash. After the show went off the air in July, speculation began about who Ektaa Kapoor might cast as the next Naagin. Names like Sumbul Touqeer, Rubina Dilaik, and Ayesha Singh have also been linked to the role, but Priyanka’s name has been the most talked about, largely due to her recent prominence.
It’s worth noting that Priyanka’s future plans may not involve television at all at this stage. While the world eagerly waits for her next announcement, it appears that she is taking her time to decide on her next big project.
. Given her recent popularity, it wouldn’t be surprising if she were eyeing diverse opportunities beyond the small screen, perhaps in films or web series.
This uncertainty surrounding the lead role in Naagin 7 has kept the show’s fandom on their toes. As of now, Ektaa Kapoor has yet to make any official announcements regarding the casting for the upcoming season. Given the franchise’s pedigree and huge fanbase, the choice of the next lead is understandably a matter of considerable interest and speculation within the industry and among fans alike.
The anticipation only adds to the overall mystique surrounding the series. Naagin has been a staple of Indian television since its inception, with each season bringing a fresh storyline and a new lead, each leaving their unique mark on the role. The legacy of the show places tremendous pressure on whoever takes up the mantle next, which perhaps explains the careful consideration behind the casting choices.
Priyanka Chahar Choudhary’s denial of her involvement in Naagin 7 does leave a significant void in the rumor mill, and raises further questions about who will step into the limelight for the coveted role. Fans will have to wait patiently for Ektaa Kapoor’s official word. Until then, speculation will likely continue, and the hopes of seeing their favorite stars in iconic roles will keep buzzing.
In the meantime, Priyanka’s fans can look forward to whatever project she chooses next, as her career trajectory post-Bigg Boss 16 shows no signs of slowing down. Her impact on the audience has been profound and her fanbase robust, laying a strong foundation for whatever venture she decides to embark upon next.
