I said yes the very first time the script was narrated to me because it was so exciting. It is a very interesting, challenging and risky character. I took emotional risks to play the character. It gave me a chance to explore new sides of mine. As an actor, I am taking a risk too because this is the first time people will see a playful, prankster Raghav turning into an antagonist. The character has so many layers in him. My character had a traumatic past, which is why he does what he does. (By playing the part) I got to learn so much.”

Raghav is known for his charming and down to earth personality. He loves spending his vacations in his native village. During an interview, he said,
I think it is good that when I go to my village in the hill station where my grandparents live, (people) do not watch TV… because they don’t treat me like the star. My childhood friends, people in the village treat me like one of them. That is how I stay grounded. No matter what I am going to achieve in the future, I will stay connected to reality.”

Raghav Juyal, when asked on how it feels to be a part of the entertainment industry and making friends there, said,
I really don’t care what industry people think about me. I only have a handful of friends like Dharmesh bhai (choreographer Dharmesh Yelande) in the industry. I just finish my work and set off to my hometown, Garhwal. All my friends are there, not here. I don’t want to fit into groups and attend Page 3 parties and hang out with unknown people. I hang out with my friends in Dehradun and comeback for work. So I don’t really care what people think about me even a bit. I just need to do good work, meet good people and live life respectfully.”

Amid the nationwide lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Raghav Juyal emerged as a superhero for his state, Uttarakhand. Initially, Raghav started by helping the people around him by providing them with food and other necessities. He also donated 20 big oxygen cylinders, 40 cannulas, 20 oxymeters in Pauri, but realised that this small contribution will not make any major impact for the people in need.

Raghav, his friends, and a team of over 100 volunteers worked day night to procure Oxygen cylinders, beds, and medicines and repeatedly appealed for more support and aid.

Raghav Juyal received huge appreciation for his efforts in helping people in the pandemic. During an interview he said,
As soon as restrictions were announced in Maharashtra, I moved to my hometown, Pauri, in Uttarakhand. Then I got infected with COVID-19 and so I had to quarantine at home for two weeks. During this period, while I was at home, I realised that the area around my village was deeply affected and the health centres were not well-equipped. They did not have enough medicines and I felt that I should do something to support them so that people do not have to travel to cities and get treated. So after I recovered from COVID-19, I started helping people in the rural areas in Uttarakhand and supplying essential materials to health centres.”

Raghav Juyal, while urging people to extend help also revealed that he would be promoting brands for free with the condition that the brands will have to aid Uttarakhand with money or resources to help the state fight the Covid-19 pandemic. He shared a video on Instagram with the caption,
I often associate with brands and companies to promote their products. In lieu of professional fees. Today I’m making an appeal, to all the companies that would want to work with me to promote their brand /product or associate with them as a brand ambassador, please come forward and help me raise funds for Uttarakhand . I promise to let waive off my professional fees in exchange of the financial help provided to the affected during this Covid crises. U can dm @nyogesh81 for relief collaborations. Link for the donation and brand association is in my bio (sic).”

While serving the people stuck in pandemics in his hometown, Raghav himself got exposed to the COVID-19 virus. Resulting to which he also took a break from anchoring the reality dance show ‘Dance Deewane Season 3’ which was taken over by Bharti Singh and Haarsh Limbachiyaa. Raghav reacted to this as,
There are so many dance shows happening on television. If someone has stepped in my place and is doing a good job, it’s great. I will be back on the show soon. TV has given me a lot and I am grateful. But, I never get insecure about these things.”

According to Raghav, like many other Bollywood actors, he has also faced and suffered the impact of nepotism in Bollywood. He lost a film just because the higher authorities and senior actors wanted somebody else to work with them. He said,
There is nepotism in every field. Even in our school, there is nepotism. How we deal with it and what decision we take– that depends on us. And yes I have also faced this in the industry. I auditioned for a film and got selected too by a well-known casting director. I got the script and the director too was satisfied with me. But then, I don’t know what happened. Suddenly the casting director called me and said, ‘Raghav, we are sorry as higher authority and actors of the film said they wanted someone else in my place. So, it happens. We can’t do anything in this.”

Raghav Juyal is a philanthropist. He is associated with a number of NGO’s and foundations. He uses his strong social media influence to generate awareness about society.
