Naagin 6: Ekta Kapoor REVEALS She Never Met Tejasswi Prakash Before Bigg Boss 15; Here's How The Actress Came Onboard For The Supernatural Show
Tejasswi Prakash was announced as the winner of Salman Khan-hosted show Bigg Boss 15 and it was also revealed that she is going to be the lead in Ekta Kapoor's supernatural show Naagin 6. In a recent interview, Ekta Kapoor shared that she never met Tejasswi before BB15. Given that Tejasswi was inside the house, Ekta got in touch with Teja's manager who agreed to get the actress onboard.

Speaking to ETimes, she said, "I saw Tejasswi in the show and we spoke to her manager and signed her who assured us that she will be onboard. Before the show, I had seen her. I had liked her so much though I don't see too much of Bigg Boss but a lot of my friends do. Also, there's clippings of Bigg Boss all over Instagram and you end up watching it."

She added, "I feel she is a very attractive young girl. There's something about her eyes and I just had to cast her. Honestly, I've never met her except for this show and now I gave her the narration."

This time, we will see Tejasswi and Mahek Chahal end the pandemic and save the world. Simba Nagpal is also a part of the show.

Talking about choosing pandemic as Naagin 6's storyline, Ekta said, "When my friend narrated me this concept and she told me you should do this and corona is not just about the disease, it is a mind changing thing, she told me I am no longer dealing with relatable topics in the country. I actually knew at that point ke mujhe gaaliyaan padne wali hai because agar yehi kaam koi really celebrated maker karta, things would have been different. Naagin is an out mass, commercial pulp show and there will be criticism and I am fine with it because I am not calling it corona. I want to show what people went through in the last 2 years."

Well, Naagin 6 is all set to premiere on February 12 and fans are beyond excited.
