The Relentless Rise of Raghav Juyal: From Reality TV to Global Recognition

Raghav Juyal’s story is one of grit, quirks, and sheer reinvention. For most of us, he’ll always be Crockroaxz, the lanky contestant whose slow-motion moves on Dance India Dance 3 stunned the country back in 2012.

But beyond the viral fame, Raghav dared to dream bigger. His journey from a rejected contestant to one of television’s most beloved hosts and now a critically acclaimed Bollywood actor is nothing short of remarkable.

Bollywood wasn’t easy on him. Raghav made his debut in 2014 with Sonali Cable—a film that barely made a mark at the box office. For many newcomers, that would have been the end of the road, but Raghav refused to slow down.

He chipped away with supporting roles in films like ABCD 2 and Street Dancer 3D, while continuing to build his presence on TV. Yet, it wasn’t until Nikhil Nagesh Bhat’s Kill that the world truly sat up and took notice.
