Actor and dancer Raghav Juyal is reportedly set to star in Vikas Bahl’s upcoming film ‘Ikaai’, a unique blend of romance and horror that promises to explore uncharted emotional and psychological territory. The project marks another bold step in Juyal’s evolving career, as he continues to shed his comic television persona in favour of darker, more complex roles.
The news follows a wave of acclaim for Juyal’s recent performance in ‘Kill’, where he portrayed the menacing character Fani. The film, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, earned him his first IIFA nomination for Performance in a Negative Role. His chilling portrayal was praised by industry heavyweights including Vicky Kaushal and Anurag Kashyap, further cementing his reputation as a serious actor3.
Juyal also appeared in Aryan Khan’s Netflix series ‘The Bads of Bollywood’, showcasing his versatility in the digital space. These recent roles mark a significant departure from his early days as a television entertainer, where he rose to fame with his quirky humour and dance skills on shows like ‘Dance India Dance’ and ‘Comedy Nights Bachao’.
Speaking in interviews, Juyal has acknowledged the shift in his career trajectory, noting that ‘Kill’ opened doors for him to explore more layered characters. With ‘Ikaai’, he appears poised to continue that journey, diving into a genre that demands both emotional depth and dramatic intensity.
Further details about ‘Ikaai’ remain under wraps, but the collaboration with Vikas Bahl, known for films like ‘Queen’ and ‘Super 30’, has already sparked interest among fans and critics alike.
