Netflix India’s latest sensation, The Bads of Bollywood (or The Ba***ds of Bollywood), has taken the Indian OTT space by storm. The audience’s reception has been overwhelmingly positive, a great sign for debutant director Aryan Khan. But amidst all the celebrity cameos and big names associated with the series, one man has managed to outshine them all, according to viewers, and that man is none other than Raghav Juyal.
The “King of Slow Motion,” now carving his space as a rising acting talent, is making serious waves online for his spectacular performance in The Bads of Bollywood.
While the series features seasoned actors like Bobby Deol and appearances from industry giants like Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Ranveer Singh, it’s Raghav Juyal’s portrayal of Parvaiz, the best friend of protagonist Aasmaan Singh (played by Lakshya Lalwani), that has truly captured audiences’ hearts and dominated social media conversations.
Viewers are showering Raghav with praise for his impeccable comic timing, which has delivered some of the show’s most hilarious and memorable moments. Many even believe he managed to overshadow other seasoned performers in the series.
Known for his unique dance style and witty humour, Raghav brings a grounded charm to the chaotic, glitzy world of Bollywood depicted in the show. His chemistry with co-star Lakshya is being hailed as the “backbone of the show,” with their bromance serving as a refreshing, humanizing element amidst the series’ self-aware jabs at industry fakeness and absurdity.
While some critics have noted that the writing occasionally confines his character to comic relief, Raghav’s performance elevates the material, making every moment count.
Yes, The Bads of Bollywood was marketed as Aryan Khan’s big debut project, but it has also become a platform that has expanded Raghav Juyal’s fanbase. He has proven that in a show packed with big names, a powerful and honest performance can shine the brightest.
Stay tuned for more updates, and check out some of the best social media reactions to Raghav’s standout performance below!
From Dehradun to #DanceIndiaDance3, inventing “Crockroaxz”, to winning hearts as host, awards in Kill & Gyaarah Gyaarah, and now ruling in #TheBadsOfBollywood ✨ Raghav Juyal, your journey is pure magic — forever proud & inspired ❤️ #RaghavJuyal

Binged this and my brain is still processing it, I’m still in disbelief . Aryan Khan did such a great job making this. Bobby Deol was fantastic, and the lead pair, I mean the actor and actress, played their parts really well. And Raghav Juyal what a man! #TheBadsOfBollywood pic.twitter.com/by58ekoT6f
