Surbhi Chandna, Sharad Malhotra and Mohit Sehgal's Naagin 5 is coming to an end this weekend. It will be replaced by the spin-off show titled Kuch Toh Hai - Naagin Ek Naye Rang Mein featuring Krishna Mukherjee and Harsh Rajput. The team shot for the final episode a few days ago. Now, as fans are about to witness a thrilling climax of Naagin 5, Surbhi spoke to a leading daily about being compared to former seasons of the supernatural and previous actresses of the franchise. The actress said the comparison helped her improve as an actor.
"It was a new concept this time about a cheel and naagin coming together. People jump to comparisons when there are previous seasons. I was compared to previous naagins, but I took it in my stride and it only made me better. Now, why a show has not done well like the earlier seasons, is something that could have many reasons. But people immediately start criticising something rather than just getting entertained during that one-hour episode. There is a lot of negativity in the outside world, so when people sit down to watch TV shows, they should refrain from being too critical. We worked very hard till the last day of the show and gave it nothing but the best," Surbhi told.
Surbhi shared that Naagin 5 transformed her physically and professionally. "The show transformed me completely — physically and professionally. Naagins from the previous seasons had set a bar and I had to match it. Also, what new I would be bringing to the show was on my mind when I started. I had to leave my previous shows’ experiences behind and learn new things. Bani had to behave like a normal girl and yet show her strength and power as the aadinaagin. So, I only gained professionally and personally through this show," she shared.
Surbhi played the role of Bani Sharma who marries Veer, a cheel. Their chemistry was much appreciated and fans gave them the moniker, VAni.
