One and a half years after Shraddha Kapoor announced that she has been roped in for ‘Naagin’, the actress will start shooting for it after wrapping up Luv Ranjan’s next co-starring Ranbir Kapoor.
According to a report in a news portal, in keeping with the subject rooted in traditional Indian folklore, the film will have extensive VFX. Work on the visual effects modelling is reportedly slated to start next month.
When the actress had first broken the news of taking up this film, Shraddha had said that having grown up watching, admiring and idolising the Sridevi’s Nagina and Nigahen, she had been keen to play a similar role — of an ichhadaari naagin who can change her form at will.
Director Vishal Furia had earlier revealed in another interview that Shraddha loved the concept and it did not take too long for her to come onboard. He also revealed that the actress is in love with the process and they intend to have workshops for Naagin. According to him, it is an unusual character and will need a lot of prep.
Meanwhile, Shraddha also has Chaalbaaz In London in her kitty. According to reports, the makers, who announced the movie in April 2021, have currently put it on hold and are planning to visit it at a later stage.
