'King' Villain Role Gives Raghav Juyal a Dream Come True Moment with SRK

Mumbai, July 22 – For Raghav Juyal, playing a central antagonist in the upcoming blockbuster "King" has turned into a dream realized. The actor described his on‑set encounter with Shah Rukh Khan as a moment that felt like the fulfillment of a long‑held aspiration.

During the first shared scene, Juyal admitted that SRK’s powerful delivery caused him to stumble over his own line. Yet, that brief lapse sparked a wave of nostalgia, reminding him of countless viewings of SRK’s movies in his youth.

He reflected that the experience was beyond words, comparing it to a scene from a fantasy finally becoming reality. After regaining his focus, Juyal committed to delivering a strong performance as the son of Jackie Shroff’s character, whose actions bring him face‑to‑face with a younger SRK.

Directed by Siddharth Anand, "King" switches between two timelines, allowing Juyal’s villainous arc to intersect with the star’s early‑career version. Meanwhile, Juyal’s next release, the comedy "Bhai Tera Star Hai," is set for a July 30 theatrical launch, promising audiences another facet of his versatility.
