@bold:true,i think harsh initially couldnt figure out his character,and it showed in some initial scenes,i mean traits of vampire,bgm of cheel and inbetween wolf sound as well,it didnt make sense..instead of vampire they should've kept it as adi shaat,with adi shaat bgm would have been good


Plot is good overall but i guess makers didnt know how to handle a devil and angel story thus the mess

Totally agree with you.

budget problem is true.as you said the ratings was also true.it happened because of low rating.for a big budget show like naagin those trps were not enough.so during lockdown when they faced loss the budget also got affected.nazar2 too faced the same.

It is just a rumour that Naagin 4 ended because of budget. It was because of poor ratings...

That is,

Rating: 2.2-2.7 in its last three weeks before lockdown

Position/Rank: 5,8,9 = It is considered low with reference to the achievement of first three seasons (1st rank with 3.5+ ratings)

So they thought to end it and brought Naagin 5. If budget is the problem, Naagin 5 would not have come immediately also with a better VFX than Season 4 in initial episodes. (Still Overall season 4 has the best VFX across all 5 seasons)


But what to do! Naagin 5 ratings goes new level of downhill in ratings and position. So, they thought to bring the show as filler to retrieve the 8pm weekend slot.

The blame is to be shared by both the PH and a certain portion of fans.


It's not like N5 wasn't given enough time. They were and even when that didn't work, they switched to the next season, in the same way when a rather unsuccessful Season 4 paved the way to Season 5.


But the way some people are behaving that the leads couldn't pull the crowd, here they are conveniently forgetting that the show hasn't been given any time at all and they pulled the plug.


Anyway, the PH didn't want to waste money. But I hope they do understand that with half baked stories they wouldn't be able to succeed. The story was finally getting better and they jeopardized it by forcing the Naagin concept. What a waste!


I wish people stopped their hypocrisy that when their favorites are the leads, the failure of the show is makers' fault but otherwise it's the actors' fault.


Hope the cast and crew get better projects in future.

I think the TRPs started going downhill with the 4th season itself.Before that the show was quite successful and even the third season managed to get decent TRPs during its entire course. Season 4 was too short and ended abruptly, even the 5th season wasn't that bad, the leads were good, I mostly liked Sharad's performance, but I think whoever the story writer is, no matter how much they try, they just have nothing new to offer now. This current season has a decent cast with some interesting scenes every now and then, but the plot kinda looks all over the place with the blend of these supernatural characters, naagin cheel vampire etc, so the story is having a hard time connecting with the TRP audience.

I am feeling the same. Harsh is improving. He was looking good in some of shorts (in Youtube) and so the episode. The story and scenes are fine but still story needs to find its right path.

I agree. The story is okay however there is a lot of scope for improvement, but it's too late for that now.

Again, completely agree with you.


It's about detailing and sticking to the original concept. Personally I think there is nothing wrong with the love story between a Naagin and Cheel as long as there's consistency. Even the fact that their child would be cursed made sense.


If you have watched the original version of Charmed, there Leo was a whitelighter (Angel) & Piper was a good witch - protector of the mankind. Yet when Wyatt was born, due to his extreme power the Elders got divided whether he should be protected or eliminated.


I saw some weird comments in IG that calling Rehan Adi-Shaat is an insult to VaNi. Why is that? It's only natural that a hybrid between two sworn enemy clans would be considered as inauspicious. They could have shown VaNi's battle for their kid's safety but they directly shifted to KTH.


Even KTH, it made no sense that a hybrid of Cheel & Naagin turned out to be a Vampire of all species. A winged demon would still make sense minus his fangs and classic vampire traits. It had much potential with the love story a demon and angel. But they forcefully introduced the Naagin angle and that too with the weirdest logic possible.


If only they had stuck to one concept and focused on completing its journey, none of the seasons would meet their unfortunate end.


And yes, audience too are to be blamed when they don't acknowledge a good plot.

I agree with you.One of the reasons the story this season looks quite out of place despite not being that bad is the forceful inclusion of the Naagin angle, to justify the title of course, even though that hardly made any sense.Making the female lead a naagin out of nowhere and that too forcefully, to justify the concept, no wonder the show is not working 🤓

I agree.


I have noticed not just in India but even in a lot of International shows, makers just don't know where to stop. They keep cashing on a good series until it become total trash and the viewers themselves reject it.


After 3 successful seasons there weren't much story to tell but Ekta kept introducing new seasons. And honestly when Naagin aired originally, there weren't a lot of supernatural shows. It clicked instantly. Now every channel has at least one show of this genre and people are getting bored. Not to mention the blooming OTT space.


So half-baked stories no longer can survive just because of the franchise's popularity.

Exactly! The actors are decent. I hated Manini Mishra's OTT attitide but now she is convincing as a shrewed villain. The same goes for other cast. They have introduced unnecessary characters who eat the screen space and then suddenly took a U-turn making Priya a Naagin.


I seriously don't understand whether they don't get the meaning of spin-off or simply refuse to accept it? Otherwise why forcefully introduce Naagin in this story also? It would have a better shot if the story was treated as a new one.
