News Shows like Naagin and Kavach showcase GOOD versus EVIL, not regression: Namik Paul

MUMBAI: Namik Paul will soon be seen in a new avatar as Angad Jindal in the supernatural show Kavach on Colors after playing a ghost in Sony TV’s Ek Deewana Tha.

The supernatural genre has been a subject of many discussions and was considered to promote regressive beliefs at a point of time. When quizzed about showcasing regressive content to progressive television viewing audience, Namik had an interesting insight to share.

He said, ‘When you talk about regressive shows, I do not think supernatural content, like the one you’d see in Kavach, promotes negative beliefs. It’s a supernatural, prime-time show at 8 PM, taking the place of Naagin. This is something that I am very thankful and excited for. Shows like Naagin and Kavach are purely showcase good versus evil and not something that is regressive. For example, if a man practicing domestic violence is shown in a positive light, it is regressive. But this is something that is purely entertainment.’

He further added, ‘When I was signed on for Kasautii, I was more than happy to play a part in it, and I have no regrets
