Ekta Kapoor opens up about rejecting 55 faces for Naagin 6

Ekta Kapoor's supernatural show Naagin 6 is all set to go on air in February 2021 and the show is already seen a lot of hype for the upcoming season.

Ekta Kapoor revealed some shocking details about the new show.

EKta mentioned how she always knew that the pandemic twist will be criticized by the people.

Ekta Kapoor spoke about the backlash she will get for the current storyline, she said, “Honestly, I was very sure I would get trolled. Like there was not even a moment that I thought that I wouldn’t get trolled. Actually, a friend of mine had given me this idea, and she had told me that we don’t in India make fiction stories on real-life incidents well, for example, a Titanic came out of a real incident. So while the pandemic is probably something that everyone will do it – the Netflix’s of the world and Amazon will do these large billion-dollar shows – we are witnessing history.”.

Ekta Kapoor on introducing Tejasswi Prakash

Ekta Kapoor also explained how she could not rope anyone in for the lead role for a long time, before casting Tejasswi Prakash, mainly because most of the actors on her list were already busy with prior commitments. Addressing the rumour about auditioning 55 ladies for the role, Ekta said, “So yes, there was this process where we went through a lot of faces, but it would be a little immodest for me to say that I auditioned 55 faces and I rejected 55 faces. But there was this spark that we wanted and couldn’t find it till we found Tejasswi.”
