Despite critical reviews, Naagin 3 has managed to pull audiences back to their television screens. The third season of the popular Colors show has slithered to the top of BARC’s (Broadcast Audience Research Council India) list of most watched shows in the country.

The show beat forever popular soaps like Kumkum Bhagya, Kundali Bhagya and even newly launched reality shows like Dance Deewane to make it to the top spot. While it was on the second spot in the rural list, the numbers from the urban population helped it beat all other shows.
