Dheeraj Dhoopar will be back in Naagin 5, are his fans reading this? Makers of Naagin 5 have confirmed of getting back the actor in upcoming episodes in order to fill in for actor Sharad Malhotra who has been tested positive for COVID-19 and has been on a break. Dheeraj was seen in the initial episodes of the supernatural thriller, along with Hina Khan and Mohit Malhotra, later their onscreen characters were killed to make way for Sharad Malhotra, Surbhi Chandna and Mohit Sehgal.
This news of Dheeraj’s comeback on the show was confirmed by creative producer Mukta Dhond to Indian Express. She confirmed this re-entry of the actor will get a lot of twists and turns in the show, thus leaving the viewers amazed. She said, “Dheeraj’s entry is going to leave the audience curious. The coming episode’s storyline will also leave them confused if Veer (Sharad’s character) has died, if he will ever come back and whether Dheeraj is the same cheel (Akesh). It’s going to be a thrilling time on Naagin 5 now.”
A source close to the makers informed this decision was taken after Sharad informed of being tested positive for COVID-19, in order to keep the show going in such a way which shall not require Sharad in it. Also Dheeraj has a good connect with the audience. As both the shows Kundali Bhagya which stars Dheeraj and Naagin too being backed by Balaji telefilms, it will be easy for the actor to shoot for both the shows.
