Television personality Priyanka Chahar Choudhary will star as the lead character in the seventh installment of the popular series Naagin. The announcement occurred during a recent episode of Bigg Boss 19, where host Salman Khan witnessed the reveal. Choudhary previously competed as a finalist during the reality program's 16th season, making this disclosure particularly meaningful for the performer.
Choudhary expressed gratitude through a statement released by producers, recalling producer Ekta Kapoor's earlier prediction about finding her next serpent queen during Bigg Boss 16. The actress described accepting this responsibility as an honor while acknowledging the challenge of embodying a role within such an established franchise. She noted that learning of her casting before Khan and millions of viewers felt like fate intervening in her career path.
The supernatural drama franchise has maintained audience interest for a decade since launching in 2010. Previous actresses who portrayed leading roles became television celebrities, among them Mouni Roy, Adaa Khan, and Tejasswi Prakash. The upcoming season will be broadcast on Colors television network and stream through JioHotstar platform, though producers have not announced a specific premiere date.
