Mumbai, Feb 24 (UNI) Raghav Juyal has officially started shooting for “Bhai Tera Yaar Hai” as a lead, marking a major milestone in his acting career.
The actor, who garnered critical appreciation for his performances in “Kill” and “The Ba*ds of Bollywood”, now transitions from impactful supporting turns to headlining a full-length feature.
The film is helmed by Vivek Agrawal, known for directing “I See You” starring Arjun Rampal. Production had earlier been disrupted after Juyal suffered a leg injury, prompting the team to suspend an overseas schedule in London.
Meanwhile, the actor has two other biggies, “Ramayana” and “The Paradise,” in the offing, where he will play key roles, reports Variety India.
The actor will portray the role of Meghanad (also referred to as Indrajit), the eldest son of Ravana and the crown prince of Lanka. His character will feature in “Ramayana Part 2,” which is currently scheduled for a Diwali 2027 release. The role was initially supposed to be played by Vikrant Massey, but things apparently didn’t work out. Raghav was subsequently approached and he immediately came on board.
The epic movie features Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Goddess Sita, ‘Toxic’ star Yash as Ravana, Ravie Dubey as Lakshman and Sunny Deol as Lord Hanuman with Lara Dutta (as Kaikeyi), Rakul Preet Singh (as Surpanakha), Arun Govil (as King Dashrath), Indira Krishnan (as Queen Kaushalya), Sheeba Chaddha (as Manthara), Adinath Kothare (as Bharat) and Kunal Kapoor (as Lord Indra).
He will also appear in “The Paradise”, headlined by Nani, which is set for a multilingual theatrical release on August 21.
