The supernatural theme has long been in use in the world of literature, may be a little before that with the legends and myths found on the walls and manuscripts of ancient cultures.
Man was born with a genuine, fertile imagination and a strong desire to explore the unknown, so, he chose to express his thoughts, fancies and even fears with drawings at the beginning, then, the evolution of writing opened for him wider and broader dimensions of thinking and gave him a better way putting across his thoughts.


Then with the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century man was able to make out of those ideas a whole complete vivid unit of pictures in motion that was called motion picture, the first ever was a 3-minute short movie called Le Manoir du Diable, from that time on this legacy went on to being.
TV made things far better cause now, people are in no need to leave their homes to watch a movie, it will come directly to the audience, at their door.

So, if we are ever to enumerate the reasons behind the huge success of a show like Naagin, the supernatural theme is definitely the most prominent one, the adaptation of the storyline to suit the modern world, so we see the actors talk, dress and act like modern people, not separated from the world of the viewers.
The first two seasons of Naagin were huge success with Mouni Roy, Anita Hassanandani, Arjun Bijlani, Karanvir Bohra, as lead actors, the third season was quite a challenge for the creators, they needed an actress, that has the same charisma, that has strong sharp eyes, firm body, and the perfect choice was Surbhi Jyoti, the powerful spirit of the actress is quite obvious into Bela, so fierce with her enemies, so kind with her loved ones, so strong to keep her oath.


Anita Hassanandani is now Vishaka, she is still amazing us with her performance, she is that Naagin caught between good and evil, all because she is torn apart between her friend from one side and her love for Vikrant and her ambition to be the queen of snakes, she’s proving a huge talent day after day.


As for Pearl V. Puri, the character of Mahir is such an easy character cause, there are no twists in the character, it’s that straight forward person, who would sacrifice his life for the sake of his love, however, the actor put a glimpse of his lively and vibrant character to Mahir, so he’s not that conventional person, he is also not over acting and this is quite a point on his side, it can be considered his strongest role.


Ankit Mohan quite made it with that role, he is Yuvraaj that irresponsible, careless playboy who cares only about his desires, he doesn’t consider other peoples feelings, Vish will kill him at a point then Vikrant the deceitful lover returns in his shape after a while, great performance on both characters.
Pavitra Punia who performs the role of Poulomi Roy, Andy Sehgal’s ( Mahir’s father) mistress, mother of Aditya and Pratham, she showed an outstanding performance of the talkative woman who can’t control herself and a reentry in the show as Vikraant’s mother is most probable.

Vikraant the deceitful lover, who is just behind the throne and the jewel Bela is guarding, all he ever wanted is to drive Bela to kill Mahir thd innocent soul so she would be deprived from her title and he can take her place, he is plotting with Vish against her.
The story starts with Andy Sehgal the powerful businessman who became the landlord of the land where the temple and palace of the shape shifting serpents were built, he arrives there, saying to the villagers and priests that he has come to tear those two buildings down and no one can stop him, meanwhile, two of the shape shifting serpents are about to get married, Yuvraaj and his drunken friends see them, they assault the lovers(Roohi who will later be Bela and Vikraant her lover at the time), with Aditya killing Vikraant the misconception starts, Mahir arrives and takes the gun from Aditya at the time, Roohi sees that thinking that Mahir is the murderer, she is seeking revenge.

She returned home, now it’s Mahir’s turn but, she can’t kill him, she feels as if she’s prevented by a stronger power, it is the power of love, but she’s always denying.
Now, Jamini ( Rehaan’s girlfriend) is went into a nervous shock with all tears because Rehan is missing, Anu( Rehan’s sister) believes that Bela is behind the murder of her brother, she goes with all Aditya, Kuhu (his half sister) and her husband, Mohit, Bultu and Poulomi, Anu searches Bela’s room and finds the chart where she adhered the pictures of the people she’s going to kill, meanwhile, they find Jamini passed out with a head soaked with blood, Anu arrives with inspector Ajitabh confronting Bela with the evidence she found, at that point Jamini says that Adytia told her that Anu asked him to tell her that Bela attacked her, Anu went mad and was asked to leave the house.
Jamini is nothing but a witch who wants to sacrifice Bela’s life to be the queen of hell, she minimizes Aditya’s size so he won’t speak against her or deny the words she said in front of the inspector, she tries to set Bela up but she fails, Bela kills her.


The priest summons Bela, asks her to perform 3 tasks that can be only done for her life partner, because the jewel of the temple has been stolen, that’s the only way, they can know about its place, through a vision, Bela is now full of poison and any human touches her will get killed, she made Mahir hug her because he acted an act of sacrifice for her, she had a full vision of the place of the jewel, she left Mahir very sick with his family, she could get the jewel back, but someone was fighting her, she saw Aditya, but she believed it wasn’t him.
She returned home to find tuhat Mahir is perfectly safe, he is allergic to almonds, Mahir is her true life partner cause he was not affected by the poison in her body, he tells her that Yuvraaj called and that he’s coming back, if she wants he will divorce her, she tells him no, she wants to stay with him.

Nash real face appears, he is a wizard who wants to marry Bela, he has a magic pungi, he turned all the women of the family into his slaves, Mahir and inspector Ajitabh, could rescue Bela and the rest of the women, by breaking the instrument, Bela kills him.
Vikraant is back in the shape of Yuvi, he wants her back now, but instead of showing love, she was mad at him because he didn’t tell her earlier that he was alive, he accused her of forgetting all about his love, now all he was doing with the help of Vish who wants to help him take the jewel, to marry him and be the queen of serpents, she kills inspector Agitabh whom she was working with for a while as inspector Remona, he offered her love, but she killed him.


They go too far, Vish killed Anu and Kuhu accused Bela, in an attempt to rescue Bela from the accusation, Vikraant claims that Bela was with him all night, Bela tells Vikraant that her mother visited her in her dreams, Vikraant and Vish knew she was there to warn Bela, they could trap her, Vishaka attacked her in her snake form and bit her, they took her to a place, where Vish felt weak for biting a snake, Vikraant left her dying there.
