Shaitani Rasmein Team Embraces Spirituality With Sunderkand Paath On Set, Actors Describe ‘Divine’ Experience

Shaitani Rasmein, a fantasy thriller that airs on Star Bharat, delves into the eerie tale of a family invoking dark forces for their protection. In a bid to infuse the set with peace and positivity, the cast and crew recently gathered for a Sunderkand Paath, a spiritual ritual. Lead actors Naqiyah Haji and Vibhav Roy shared their reflections on this experience, highlighting how the ritual took on extra significance during the Ganapati festival. Naqiyah Haji, who plays the role of Nikki on Shaitani Rasmein, said that the “pooja felt very personal and divine,” especially during the festive season.

“With divine energies surrounding us, the production team decided to organise the Sunderkand Paath to bring positive energy for everyone. It was much needed to refresh the environment, and I was thrilled to experience it for the first time,” Naqiyah Haji was quoted as saying by Tellychakkar.

She added that the setup included proper musical instruments, and she felt so engaged throughout the process. By the time all the rituals ended, she found herself feeling very positive and refreshed.

Vibhav Roy, who essays the role of Piyush in the show, said, “For me, this paath was incredibly divine. It felt like God’s presence was with us until the very end. We all became so engrossed in the pooja that, for a while, we forgot where we were. The entire setup and arrangements were so peaceful and necessary.”

The actor added that they are typically too busy shooting to get a time to themselves, so having the entire cast and crew around for this felt like a blessing. Everyone was happy after the pooja, and it felt like a much-needed break to regain energy.

Reportedly, Shaitani Rasmein has been one of the channel’s most popular series, continually keeping its audience on the edge of their seats with each episode.

Recently, Vibhav Roy, Naqiyah Haji, Siddhant Issar, and the rest of the cast celebrated a big milestone of completing 200 episodes. Sharing a glimpse of the celebration on her Instagram handle, Naqiyah Haji wrote, “on cloud nine…200 Episodes!! Thank you for the love and support… Truly grateful.”

Shaitani Rasmein airs every Monday to Saturday on Star Bharat at 10 PM and it streams on Disney+Hotstar.
