Shraddha Kapoor is kicking off 2026 at full throttle. The actor is in the final stretch of shooting a physically demanding biopic and has little time to pause before plunging into a long-awaited fantasy adventure.

While wrapping Eetha, industry insiders reveal that preparations are already underway for her next big project - the fantasy film Naagin, expected to go on floors by April.

According to sources close to the production, Eetha, directed by Laxman Utekar, is scheduled to wrap by March end, following a brief pause in filming due to Shraddha's injury during a dance sequence.

The film, which sees her portraying legendary Tamasha and Lavani performer Vithabai Narayangaonkar, has required months of physical training.

"Shraddha has been deeply invested in Eetha. The role is physically gruelling and emotionally intense, but she is keen to finish the film within the schedule. The makers are confident of wrapping by March," a production source tells mid-day.

Almost immediately after, the actor is set to switch gears. "Naagin has been in development for a long time, and the team wanted to get everything right - from the VFX design to the casting. With Shraddha locked in, the rest of the cast has fallen into place. The plan is to start shooting by April," A source reveals.
