Naagin 7: Ektaa Kapoor confirms two leading ladies for the first time in franchise history

Ektaa Kapoor has once again proved that no one understands Indian television drama better than her. The powerhouse producer, who first launched the Naagin franchise in 2015, has kept audiences hooked for years with supernatural stories, iconic characters, and unpredictable twists. Now, as Naagin 7 gears up for its grand release, Ekta Kapoor has announced a game-changing update: this season will feature not one, but two Naagins leading the story.

Taking to Instagram, Ekta Kapoor shared a behind-the-scenes clip with her creative team. In the video, she teased the buzz around the new season, joking about how the discussion had taken over her office. With her trademark flair for building anticipation, she revealed, “There are going to be two Naagins this time.” She even hinted at the possibility of a Naag Devta joining the mix, sparking even more curiosity among fans.

The producer didn’t stop there. She asked her followers to drop names of their favorite actresses who they’d like to see in the lead roles. Promising to go through suggestions personally, Ekta Kapoor turned the casting process into an interactive moment for her massive fan base.

The announcement immediately lit up social media. Thousands of comments poured in, with fans passionately campaigning for their favorite TV stars. Suggestions ranged from Rubina Dilaik, Surbhi Jyoti, and Alisha Panwar to rising talents like Chahat Pandey and Isha Malviya. Some even wrote long lists of dream cast combinations, hoping Kapoor would surprise them with an unexpected pairing.

The buzz also triggered nostalgia, with many recalling how Tejasswi Prakash carried Naagin 6 as the lead from February 2022 until July 2023. Her popularity added weight to the franchise, and viewers are now eager to see which actresses will step into the dual-Naagin spotlight.

Naagin 7 was officially announced on August 24 with a teaser released by Colors TV. Beyond Kapoor’s Instagram video, little has been revealed. Plot details are tightly guarded, but the introduction of two leading ladies hints at rivalries, alliances, and a scale of drama higher than before.
