An illuminating exploration of the world of Naagin, the series will be fueled by hatred, revenge and unrequited love as the Sarvashresth Adi Naagin will return to avenge her enemies.

Several years ago, in Satyug, began the tale of the predecessor of the Naagin clan, Sarvashrestha Adi Naagin. She is fiercely in love with Naag Hriday but even before their love story could reach its happy ending, destiny rips them apart. At the same time, Cheel Aakesh obsessively falls for her, but his love remains unrequited and thus begins the tale of love and hatred. While Naagin’s love remains unfulfilled, she swears revenge as her dying wish. In Kalyug, she is reincarnated and this time is determined to fulfill her journey and also avenge the past. Will she be reunited with her love? Or will fate bring another twist to their story? Only time will tell.
