Ekta Kapoor's supernatural show 'Naagin 3', featuring Surbhi Jyoti & Pearl V Puri in lead roles, is continuously fetching great numbers for the channel. Currently, Bela (Surbhi Jyoti) is fighting it out with 'Huzoor' (Karishma Tanna) & 'Hukum' (character's face not yet revealed). Recently there was buzz that actor Shourya Lathar will be seen as 'Hukum' in the 'Colors' show. But according to latest reports, the makers of 'Naagin 3' have roped in popular actor Nikitin Dheer to play 'Hukum' in Naagin 3'.

Speaking about the same, a source told a leading daily that, "Nikitin is playing Hukum, the most formidable demon. But he enters the lives of the Sehgals as a human — an ambitious and wealthy businessman Manav Ahuja — under the guise of a business deal. However, his ulterior motive is to seduce Bela (Surbhi Jyoti), as a union with her will make him the most terrifyingly powerful creature on earth."

Nikitin too confirmed his entry in 'Naagin 3' and told TOI that, "I am quite excited about joining ‘Naagin’. It’s a popular show and I would love to explore the supernatural genre again. It gives an artiste a lot of scope to perform. I am also happy about working with Ekta Kapoor."

Few days ago, actor Shourya Lathar himself revealed that he is playing 'Hukum' in 'Naagin 3' by posting a picture on Instagram. Also, he is posting scenes of 'Hukum' from the show on social media. But now, Nikitin will be seen as 'Hukum' in the Colors show and we wonder what will be Shourya's reaction.
