Colors TV show 'Naagin 3' starring Anita Hassanandani, Karishma Tanna, Pearl V Puri and Surbhi Jyoti started early this month on June 2nd and it has been scoring No. 1 spot on BARC ratings chart ever since. The show minus the lead 'Naagin' of Season 1 and 2, Mouni Roy, did hit the right chords with audience even with an all new cast and we just saw in the latest episodes 'Bela' (Surbhi) revealing her true identity as 'Ruhi' (Karishma) that everyone believed was Vish Khanna (Anita) in the initial 3 weeks.
Anita as 'Vish' had been avenging 'Vikrant's(played by Rajat Tokas) murder that took place in Episode 1 making the audience believe that she actually had come with a changed face and now she's show to have been actually serving her friend/surbordinate.
The shocking twist was very well received by the audience of 'Naagin' franchise since they did not expect the docile and simple 'Bela' to ever show up as a 'Naagin', atleast not any time soon. However there are also those who are disturbed with the confusing development in the track and they are asking why the makers showed Karishma turning into Anita in the initial promos of the show if they were two different characters.
Not only the promo[watch at bottom of this article], there have been many loopholes in the first six episodes with scenes that have no logic if the new revelation is to consider.
Fans confused with the major twist in 'Naagin 3' in which 'Bela' aka Surbhi Jyoti is revealed to be 'Ruhi' aka Karishma Tanna from Episode 1
In this gone weekend we saw Bela and Vish coming together and killing Rehaan in the old haveli with the biggest twists in store for audience in Episode 7 and 8.
While Bela turns out to be Ruhi who'll soon be the 'Naagrani', Vish on the other hand had been serving Ruhi as her 'daasi' (slave) until now. The two also discuss their plans in a long conversation as if narrating to audience how the story reached here.
Kudos to Ekta for coming up with such a twist which obviously was pre-decided but there were certain scenes aired before this revelation that are a puzzle to us now.
SCENE 1
It was revealed in the latest episode that 'Bela's father Jagmohan Sharma is also a Naag Pandit in real and she also thanked him for helping her in the past 6 months revealing how they disguised as a farmer's family right after 'Vikrant' was killed by Yuvi and his friends, to be able to enter the Sehgal's mansion by marrying Yuvraj aka Yuvi(Ankit Mohan) and now 'Maahir' (Pearl), the elder son of Anand(Andy Sehgal). Although in this scene from Episode 1 & later in another episode too we saw the father-daughter duo pulling off their fake story even during a private conversation!
-Puzzling bit
If Ruhi and Naagpandit were a team since beginning, why would the two discuss their fake story alone in private inside their room? And we were even shown their flashbacks while the two were interacting, which also brings tears in fake-Dad's eyes!
Yes, Naagpandit was crying! He addressed Ruhi as 'Bela' while she called him 'Papa'.. that too in private!
Really? Why? It was clearly for cameras since there was no one shown even eavesdropping on their talks.
Although there was another instance when 'Maahir' needed to hear their conversation and the makers did show him standing outside their room, in a scene in episodes to follow. This one was justified unlike the above scene.
SCENE 2
When Vish aka Anita Hassanandani kills the first guy 'Karan' from Yuvi's gang of 9 murderer-friends (including 'Maahir' who happened to be there and Ruhi holds him the most responsible since she spotted the gun in his hand), for killing 'Vikrant', the voice in head says "waapas aa gayi hun mai apna badla lene, ek to gaya, 9 aur baaki hain."
-Puzzling bit
"Apna badla lene"!?! What did Ekta think will make audience believe here...! Isn't that out and out deceptive? When we now know that Vish was only killing for Ruhi!
SCENE 3
After 'Vish' kills Karan, she's seen standing atop the bungalow when suspicious 'Bela' spots her and wonders what the latter is doing up there. During this time we saw Vish again remembering what happened with 'Ruhi' in her mind-visions and while the montage from 'Ruhi' aka Karishma Tanna's gang rape attempt & Vikran's murder plays on-screen, we see 'Vish' repeating the latter's dialogues.
Ruhi: "Mai badla loongi, kisi ko nahi chhodungi mai. Mujhe ek naya chhera deejiye"
Vish: "Kisi ko nahi chhodungi mai. Ab hoga mere badle ka doosra shikaar!"
-Puzzling bit
Do we even need to mention what confused us here? "Mere badle ka doosra shikaar"! Why was Vish so confused over what and for whom she set out on this mission. The loyal friend now considers everything that happened with 'Ruhi', as her own past.
SCENE 4
This one's epic! Are all the shape shifting snakes suffering with bhoolne ki beemari? Don't they remember they all are in know of each other's real identities? In this scene, right after Vish in snake avatar gets shot in the arm and rushes inside the purani haveli(old mansion), we saw Ruhi/Bela entering it too chasing after her. Bela is then stopped by Naag Arvind(Saptrishi Ghosh) from going inside and when the two finally get in, Bela spots Vish's portrait on the wall and she yells in shock.
-Puzzling bit
All three of them could've had a party inside the mansion since no human presence was around them. But no! They instead indulged in a very long dramatic scene acting fake (for we don't know who) even in private.
SCENE 5
Bela/Ruhi and Vish reveal during their conversation in the latest episode that they acted to be enemies until now so no one doubts 'Ruhi' and which they also plan to continue so the latter can avenge Vikrant's murder by killing the rest of his murderers. In the second week episode we saw police arriving with an earring which they claim belonged to the killer of Karan and when Vish fails their attempt to check out the party pictures on a plasma screen by burning up the area, she's confronted by Bela soon after. Vish then taunts Bela who was hurt, saying to her- "kya hua? chot aayi? chot aayi bhi hai to dard nahi hoga, sab kuchh mit jayega.. sab kuchh!"
-Puzzling bit
Another fake conversation for cameras to confuse viewers. Why would the two friends who are on the same side, taunt each other in private?
SCENE 6
When Vish succeeds in plotting against Maahir-Bela's wedding and ends up being his bride (which didn't eventually happen though), she tells herself in her head - "aa gaya tum logo ka bura waqt aur mere badle ka sahi waqt aa hi gaya, kuchh nahi bhooli hun main.."
-Puzzling bit
Vish! you were not even there when the whole Ruhi rape-attempt and Vikrant's murder happened! Actually in the latest episode when Ruhi and Vish are revealing the real story until now, we see a flashback in which Vish bids goodbye to Ruhi seeing Vikrant approaching them since the two were to mate after a whole 100 years.
Through the past 4 weeks, Vish still kept getting the past visions which are actually 'Ruhi's and there was nothing that would make audience feel otherwise, except for Ekta Kapoor herself. She finally did, by telling viewers to shift their focus from Anita(Vish) to Surbhi(new Ruhi) forcing us to forget how we were fooled by the above scenes.
Also watch the first promo of 'Naagin 3' that showed Karishma taking different avatars of women including Anita's which didn't turn out to be the case finally!
While her supernatural shows always rock the TRP charts, Ekta has been also facing backlash with her shows being called regressive in today's modern India.
But the statistics say that the audience love it and without questioning the need to make them, we still want to understand why 'cheat' the fans with such illogical scenes and loopholes in such a popular series?
