Anita Hassanandani excited to be back in Naagin 4

Anita Hassanandani has been working in the Indian television industry for two decades now, but every time she plays a new character, she looks as fresh as the morning dew. Though the talented actress has essayed a wide range of characters over the years, she received immense love and appreciation for portraying a negative character in Ekta Kapoor’s supernatural revenge drama Naagin 3.

After impressing viewers with her performance in Naagin 3, Anita Hassanandani will be entering Naagin 4, the latest instalment of the superhit show. The actress will reprise her popular character of Vishakha in Naagin 4 and she is quite thrilled about the same.


"I am so excited to be back in Naagin because to play Vishakha was an amazing experience and to carry it forward is an amazing opportunity. There will be so many twists and turns as I am back to reveal a secret to the family," said the actress.

She revealed that her entry in the show was not pre-planned. "That was never the plan. It is just that they got in touch with me and I thought Naagin is a big brand and why not? Vishakha is a powerful character. So, it fell in place and I hadn't taken up anything anyway. I was not doing much, had not taken up any show, so I just thought this was right. It is always a proud moment to get associated with a brand like Naagin. It is super successful and loved. Hence, instantly I said yes."

The actress added that she does miss her co-star Surbhi Jyoti from the third part of the series. “People had loved it and we got so much love. I definitely miss the team here, although the crew is the same. I definitely miss Surbhi Jyoti. But it is still a comfortable zone for me as I know Nia Sharma. It is not like I am working with someone stranger. For me, it is like home, but I do miss Surbhi. I haven't shot much with Nia as of now. I have a lot with Jasmin, and she is very nice and sweet.”
