Actor Raghav Juyal, who recently earned widespread praise for his performance as Parvez in The Ba***ds of Bollywood, opened up about one of his biggest dreams while interacting with fans at a recent event in Mumbai. The actor has been receiving critical acclaim and audience appreciation for his recent performances in Kill and The Ba***ds of Bollywood.
Raghav`s ABCD dream
“I have a dream. Many years ago, I did ABCD 2, and I was dancing in it but in the side. My dream is to do ABCD 3 and this time in the middle. And I`ll be the hero. And when I manifest, it has to happen, right?” he said, leaving fans buzzing with excitement and joining him in manifesting the moment.
Raghav Juyal was a part of ABCD 2; however, he was one of the dancers and the lead roles were played by Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor.
Raghav on his viral scene with Emraan Hashmi
In an interview with mid-day, Raghav had shared that many of the elements on the show was spontaneous and director Aryan Khan appreciated it. The duo`s creativity was most evident in the viral sequence with Emraan Hashmi. In the scene, Juyal’s Parvaiz, a Hashmi fan, breaks into the Arabic bit of the star’s popular song, Kaho Na Kaho. The actor, Hashmi’s admirer in real life, grins, “Humara toh school, college, sab usne banaya hai. I did that scene with all my heart. In my first take, I cried. Everyone [on the set] started laughing, wondering why I was crying while singing. But I did that moment with a lot of feelings. Yet, I had to make it look funny.”
On screen, Juyal has a meaty part. But at the script level, things were very different. “My role wasn’t sketched out. Other characters had backstories, mine didn’t. So, I was a little sceptical initially. Then Aryan called me and said, ‘I have full faith in you. We’ll shape the character on set.’ I listened to him, and here we are,” he smiles.
What`s next for Raghav?
After Aryan Khan’s directorial debut, the actor is starring in Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘King’. While he doesn’t name the film, Juyal says, “The biggest support has come from Shah Rukh sir; because of this project, he offered me another. That’s a very big thing for me.”
Apart from that, Raghav will also be seen as the antagonist in the Telugu film The Paradise starring Nani.
