Actor-dancer Raghav Juyal may have started his journey with a dancing reality show, but he gradually transitioned to acting in films like the ABCD franchise, Nawabzaade and Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan. Once called the ‘King of Slow Motion’ for his surreal dance moves, he is now winning accolades for his portrayal of the deadly villain in the recently released film Kill. While Raghav keeps a low profile as far as Bollywood social gatherings and parties are concerned, the actor recently spoke about partying with Shah Rukh Khan.

Raghav said that when he partied with King Khan on his birthday, he wanted to be the one to see off SRK, so he made sure that he did not leave before Shah Rukh. Speaking to Jist, he shared that the superstar invited him to his birthday party and attending it was like a dream come true for the Gyaarah Gyaarah actor. “I attended Shah Rukh Khan sir’s birthday. Unhone ne bulaya main kaise nahin jaunga? Wahan toh main subah 6 baje tak ruka hoon. Mera ek sapna tha aur kyunki maine dekha hai sirf Shah Rukh sir sabko gadi tak chorne aate hain. Mera sapna tha ki main Shah Rukh sir ko gaadi tak chodoon. 6 baje tak ruka main.. main aur mera dost Ishaan. Woh hamari zindagi ka sabse yaadgar moment hai. Main end tak ruka aur sir ko choda. Ek sapna pura hogaya Mumbai aake. Mujhe laga, ‘Aaj apun raja hai!‘ (How could I not go when he invited me? I stayed there until 6 in the morning. I had a dream, and since I’ve seen that only Shah Rukh Khan drops everyone off at their cars, my dream was to drop Shah Rukh Khan off at his car. I stayed until 6, along with my friend Ishaan. It was the most memorable moment of our lives. I stayed until the end and saw him off. A dream came true by coming to Mumbai. I felt, ‘Today, I am the king!’),” he shared. The actor joked that he felt like the king of Mumbai just like Bhiku Mhatre in Satya.

Raghav Juyal also spoke about meeting MS Dhoni and learning life’s valuable lessons at the party. “I also bumped into Dhoni Bhaiya (MS Dhoni). I don’t follow cricket but I am his huge fan and I just watch his Reels. He teaches you thehrao, patience and leadership qualities which are attributes I need in life. Since his wife is also from Dehradun, toh Dehradun wala vibe mila gaya tha. He had a lot of fun. We danced together,” he recalled.
