## Early Life:

Mahek was born on Naag-Havelli as the eldest daughter of Naagin Roopa and as the eldest granddaughter of Sarvasheshth Sheshnaagin Naageshwari. Since her childhood , Mahek was told that she was destined to be next Sheshnaagin after her grandmother. Soon after her grandmother's death, Mahek's younger sister Pratha was born . Both of the sisters used to love each other a lot. Mahek used to meditate to gain Sheshnaagin powers whereas Pratha never wanted any powers she just wanted to live a normal life with her destined husband. Years passed by and both of the sisters grew up. Soon the night of Mahek's coronation arrived. Roopa, Mahek's father, Arjun(Mahek's brother) and Pratha were present there for Mahek .While their family was performing the ritual for Mahek to become Sarvashreshth Shesh Naagin, two men entered and disrupted the ritual. Roopa then forced Pratha to drink the milk in order to obtain Sarvashreshth Shesh Naagin power when Mahek was held captive, Pratha became Sarvashreshth Shesh Naagin instead of Mahek. Their father, mother and younger brother died in a fire caused by those boys. Mahek remained as an ordinary Naagin from the ritual. Both the sisters then went beneath the earth after the incident.

## Hunting of the conspirators:

The conspirators against India helped a neighboring country to start a biological warfare by releasing a poisonous liquid into the water bodies, causing a pandemic. A professor seeked help of Sarvashreshth Shesh Naagin to hunt down twenty conspirators. The professor then summoned Shesh Naagin and Mahek came back to Naag-Havelli.

    Naagin Mahek pretending to be a security in-charge named Hina Khanna while her younger sister Sarvashreshth Shesh Naagin Pratha as a worker entered the wedding of the Gujral family brothers Rishabh and Ritesh, attempt to kill their father Lalit Gujral, one of the twenty conspirators and actually killing the brides’ father Mr. Kataria, another conspirator.

    Mahek helped Pratha in her marriage who was supposed to marry Ritesh but instead got married to Rishabh. Mahek then started helping Pratha to kill the conspirators and found her father to be alive but soon both the sisters realized that their father was one of the conspirators who later got killed by Lord Ram's arrow. Mahek soon learnt about Yash being Sarvasheshth Shesh Naag , the destined husband of Sarvasheshth Shesh Naagin and helped in arranging the marriage of Yash and Pratha but Yash accepted brahmachrya and let Pratha go back to Rishabh. Mahek and Pratha soon realized Seema (Lalit Gujral's wife) was the seventh conspirator and Mahek helped Pratha against Seema.

    Mahek and Pratha learnt Seema's actual motive which was to get Amrit Kalash from Pratha which was hidden by Mahek and Pratha's mother (Roopa) in the past. Pratha and Mahek with the help of Chandha (Rishabh's real mother) found Amrit Kalash which was in Paatal-Lok. .Seema got Amrit Kalash from Pratha . Seema after that tried to poison Yamuna river using Amrit Kalash but instead got Yamuna river and whole India free from the pandemic and later learnt that Mahek had replaced the bottle of poison with amrit (elixir) earlier. Soon Mahek learnt about Seema's accident after which Seema went to coma.

Mahek then found that Pratha had decided to sacrifice her Sheshnaagin powers and warned her but Pratha sacrificed her powers anyway.

## Mahek's betrayal:

Mahek then betrayed Pratha after Pratha became human along with Ritesh , Rehan , Vihaan and Shakti (Rishabh's twin brother who came infront of Pratha as Rishabh). Mahek then framed Pratha for Rehan's wife, Samayara's murder.

    Pratha then got arrested where Mahek came to visit her and revealed her actual motive which was to become Sheshnaagin since it was her destiny to become Sheshnaagin not Pratha's who became Sheshnaagin by mistake. Mahek wanted to gain Sheshnaagin powers after Pratha sacrifice her Sheshnaagin powers .In court,Pratha was proven guilty for Samayra's death and was sentenced to death but soon Mahek learnt her sister , Pratha being pregnant and planned to kill Pratha's child with the help of police officer and doctor but was unable to kill the child which made her realize that Pratha's daughter gained some powers and to gain the powers in the future Mahek decided not to kill Pratha's daughter . Mahek gave Pratha's daughter to Suhasini for adoption but she decided to find and gain Pratha's daughter in future whenever she wanted . Mahek then married Rishabh and soon heard the news of Pratha's death.

## Mahek became new Sarvashreshth Sheshnaagin:

Soon after that, Mahek started to perform the ritual of becoming Sarvashreshth Sheshnaagin in the Naag-Havelli in the presence of Sarvashreshth Sheshnaag , Farishta and her maternal aunt, Urvashi who in the past had helped Mahek to betray Pratha but Mahek didn't become Sarvashreshth Sheshnaagin .Mahek then questioned Sheshnaag for the reason of her not becoming Sheshnaagin and suspected Pratha to be alive to which Sheshnaag replied that if Mahek didn't get the powers in the interval of one year then that would mean that Pratha could be alive. Mahek was shocked hearing this.

Mahek then waited for a year and after the completion of one year she then reached to Naag-Havelli and performed the ritual of becoming Sheshnaagin again in the presence of Sheshnaag and Farishta and this time Mahek became Sheshnaagin.

    Mahek then started to plan against the country with Urvashi but soon got called in the Himalaya by Farishta where Farishta informed Mahek about Yeti who was arriving to India to fight with Sarvashreshth Shesh Naagin who would never stop untill it got defeated by Shesh Naagin and Farishta also told her that it was Shesh Naagin's responsibility to save the people from Yeti . Mahek then got scared of Yeti and started to panic.

## Mahek losing her Sheshnaagin powers:

Mahek then was travelling with Rishabh to invite businessman Rajesh Pratap Singh to their party when Mahek got attacked by Yeti and to protect herself from Yeti, Mahek sacrificed her Shesh Naagin powers by saying "I am not Shesh Naagin" three times and upon saying that Naagmani got released from Mahek's body and fell in the ground.

Yeti left after that and Mahek was saved and started to search for fallen Naagmani but found fake Naagmani which was placed by Pratha and assuming the fake Naagmani being real Mahek stored the fake Naagmani inside her and still thought herself as Sheshnaagin with no realization that she had already lost her Sheshnaagin powers.

## Mahek met Kiara Sharma:

Mahek who was supporting Chinghistan with Urvashi to destroy India then learnt that Zack from Chinghistan(Urvashi's associate) required a land from Rajesh Pratap Singh and decided to talk about the land with Rajesh Pratap Singh in party but got shocked when she realized that Rajesh Pratap Singh's fiancée , Kiara Sharma was a look-alike of Pratha and got suspicious whether Kiara was actually Pratha or not and started to keep an eye on her.

## Mahek got called by Shakti Gujral:

Mahek was called by Shakti for their nuptial night as Shakti wanted Rishabh's love but Mahek cleared him that she was not Rishabh's love and she had used Shakti previously to kill Rishabh's love.

## Mahek learnt that she was not Sheshnaagin :

Mahek then learnt Kiara being the new owner of the land she required and with the help of Urvashi continuously tried to conveince Kiara and soon Mahek and her whole Gujral family got invited to Rajesh and Kiara's wedding where surprisingly Shakti Gujral reached in and was referring Kiara as Deepika, his dream girl. Mahek then took form of Kiara Sharma and with the help of Urvashi knocked down Shakti and a girl named Gauri witnessed it so Mahek killed her. Soon after wedding, Mahek learnt her husband Rishabh was dead since she never loved him, she started to pretend to be sad from his death. She learnt that Maha Naag-Panchami was approaching where Takshak would enter from the entrance opened by Sheshnaagin and then Takshak can fulfilled one wish of Sheshnaagin. Mahek then went to perform the ritual of Naag-Panchami but couldn't open the entrance for Takshak which made her realize that she was no longer Sheshnaagin.

## Mahek got an invitation for Sheshnaag's Swamvara :

Mahek suspected Kiara to be Pratha and planned a attack of Yeti on her to expose her but her plan failed and she became more puzzled with the questions of her not being Sheshnaagin but she soon got an invitation of Sheshnaag's Swamvara where she was able to participate as a candidate of Sheshnaag's bride and become Shesh-naagrani(more powerful than Sheshnaagin) and she decided to participate to gain the title and more power.

## Mahek became Shesh-Naagrani:

Mahek soon learnt that Pratha was Kiara and that she was still the Shesh-Naagin and in order to gain more powers than Pratha, Mahek participated in Shesh-Naag's Swamvara where she completed all three tasks(Fight with her competitors, Passing the Lava, Defeating Naagin Nashika who can stone anyone when looked in her eyes). Shesh-Naag married Mahek as per rules and she became Shesh-Naagrani.

    Mahek trapped Pratha in Sarpganga and left her to die. Mahek then planned to destroy India in Kedarnath with Urvashi and Zach and thought to rule over India.

## Mahek's Death:

Mahek as Shesh-Naagrani was called by Pratha and Mahek was forced to see her according to the rules of Naaglok. Pratha as a Naagin asked justice from Shesh-Naagrani Mahek to punish her culprit which was Mahek herself and as per Naaglok's rules Shesh-Naagrani must give justice to every Naagins who come to her for justice and Pratha even casted a mystical flame around to which Mahek cannot cross unless she give justice to Pratha. Pratha continously asked Mahek about her daughter's whereabouts. Since Mahek was losing against Pratha and was supposed to give justice to Pratha, she decided to kill herself (which according to Naaglok's rules would be justice to Pratha since Shesh-Naagrani Mahek herself was the culprit whom Shesh-Naagrani was supposed to punish) without telling Pratha about her lost daughter to make her suffer forever and jumped off the cliff.

## Mahek's Return:

Mahek gets resurrected by Seema and Urvashi after 20 years with the magical powers of the anklets of Naageshwari. Mahek then decides to gain the powers of 9 Naagmani from the current Shesh-Naagin Prathna (Mahek's niece). Mahek with Seema and Urvashi goes to Gujral house where Rudra and Prathna are supposed to get married but when Mahek does not seem to find Prathna anywhere she realizes that Prathna is performing the ritual to gain the title of Maha Shesh-Naagin and wishes to stop her but Pratha stops Mahek. Mahek then kills her younger sister, Pratha and left her to die with Rishabh and Rudra.

Mahek soon finds Preeti, a girl who looks just like Prathna and then along with Seema tries to figure out whether Preeti is Prathna or not. Soon Mahek learns that Preeti is Prathna who has lost all her past memories and finds it a good opportunity to gain 9 Naagmani from Preeti aka Prathna since Prathna no longer remembers that she is Maha Sheshnaagin but when Mahek fails in obtaining 9 Naamani from Prathna when Prathna was uncounsious then Mahek with the help of Seema learns that she cannot gain 9 Naagmani untill and unless Maha Shesh-Naagin(Prathna) herself with her own will hands over all Naagmani to Mahek and so in order to keep Prathna closer to her eyes, Mahek tricked Preeti aka Prathna into getting married with Raghuveer Ahlawat( Mahek's Brother-in-law).
