WHAT! Ekta Kapoor Says Priyanka Chopra Agreed To Do Naagin While Katrina Kaif Did Not Understand The Folklore

Ekta Kapoor’s supernatural daily soap, Naagin is currently in its fourth season and is one of the most-watched and loved TV soap. But what many might not know is that TV czarina first planned on making Naagin as a full-fledged feature film with either Priyanka Chopra or Katrina Kaif.

But wait till you read the next bit. Ekta recently confirmed that when she approached Kartina Kaif with the concept, the Bharat actress outright refused to be a part of it and considered it a joke. It was later that Ekta approached Priyanka Chopra for the film and she said yes!

Opening up about what went wrong eventually and the legendary folklore of the Naagin became a daily soap, Ekta Kapoor has been quoted by Pinkvilla saying, “I had just mentioned it. I should have given the context. They did not know how big the folklore in India is. Priyanka had said yes, Katrina did not get the bigness of folklore but both these women are great women. They are women I admire and love. I am hoping to work with both of them in my career.”
