Shraddha Kapoor signed up for Nagin Trilogy

Shraddha was seen in two movies in 2020, 'Street Dancer 3D' and 'Baaghi 3'. The latter released just days before theatres shut down across the country due to the Covid-19 pandemic due which 'Baaghi 3' got an early streaming release. After Vyjayanthimala, Rekha and Sridevi, it's Shraddha Kapoor turn to play a 'Naagin', a shape-shifting snake. Vishal Furia will direct this movie trilogy. The news led to a series of memes on Twitter. Shraddha expressed her excitement about being a part of the project and said in a statement, "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 always wanted to play a similar role rooted in Indian traditional folklore. It's like playing an iconic character, which has always been so fascinating for the audience." Director Vishal Furia welcomed Shraddha on board the film and tweeted, "It will be lovely to direct you as 'Nagin'.. you will totally rock it coz of your belief.. together we'll create a totally magical 'Indian' story of an 'Indian' female mythical super-character.. welcome aboard." Nikhil Dwivedi will produce Naagin under the banner of Saffron Broadcast & Media Ltd. The concept of a shape-shifting snake is popular on the small screen as well, with the hit show 'Naagin' produced by Ekta Kapoor.
