The Ba***ds of Bollywood: Raghav Juyal recollects crying throughout Emraan Hashmi scene
We killed it!’ That, Raghav Juyal tells us, is the gist of the numerous messages director Aryan Khan and he have been exchanging since The Ba***ds of Bollywood dropped on Netflix a fortnight in the past. “We inform one another, ‘Bhai, yeh toh hona hello tha’. I don’t find out about others, however Aryan and I had been assured that the present could be well-received,” says Juyal of Khan’s directorial debut.
The Bobby Deol, Mona Singh, Lakshya, and Sahher Bambba-starrer has many issues going for it — its tongue-in-cheek humour, honest performances by the leads, and star-studded cameos. Juyal’s act as Parvaiz, half problem-fixer and half troublemaker, stands out with its hilarity. But, he reveals that many suggested him in opposition to portraying the function after Kill (2023), which noticed him as a ruthless antagonist. “Everybody requested me, ‘Why are you taking part in the hero’s finest buddy?’ I advised them that I might deal with it. It’s the actor’s job to make the character his personal. I created quite a lot of issues on the spot, [aspects] that weren’t within the script, and Aryan would say, ‘Preserve it coming. It’s good.’ Once we sat to make a scene, we’d go in so many instructions that producers must put a cease to it,” he laughs.

The duo’s creativity was most evident within the viral sequence with Emraan Hashmi. Within the scene, Juyal’s Parvaiz, a Hashmi fan, breaks into the Arabic little bit of the star’s well-liked track, Kaho Na Kaho. The actor, Hashmi’s admirer in actual life, grins, “Humara toh college, school, sab usne banaya hai. I did that scene with all my coronary heart. In my first take, I cried. Everybody [on the set] began laughing, questioning why I used to be crying whereas singing. However I did that second with quite a lot of emotions. But, I needed to make it look humorous.”
On display screen, Juyal has a meaty half. However on the script degree, issues had been very completely different. “My function wasn’t sketched out. Different characters had backstories, mine didn’t. So, I used to be a little bit sceptical initially. Then Aryan referred to as me and mentioned, ‘I’ve full religion in you. We’ll form the character on set.’ I listened to him, and right here we’re,” he smiles.

From the jester to ‘King’?
Raghav Juyal couldn’t have requested for a greater follow-up to ‘The Ba***ds of Bollywood’. After Aryan Khan’s directorial debut, the actor is starring in Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘King’. Whereas he doesn’t title the movie, Juyal says, “The largest help has come from Shah Rukh sir; due to this challenge, he provided me one other. That’s a really massive factor for me.”
