When KILL, Nikhil Nagesh Bhat’s relentless action-thriller, first hit screens last year, audiences were prepared for gore, action, and high-stakes drama. But what they didn’t see coming was Raghav Juyal’s terrifyingly unhinged performance as Fani a turn so chilling, it flipped his image on its head and left fans and critics stunned. Known for his easy charm, offbeat humour, and signature slow-motion dance moves, Raghav Juyal shocked audiences by slipping into the skin of one of Bollywood’s most disturbing villains in recent memory.
One year later, Fani still lives rent-free in the minds of viewers a reminder that behind the entertainer lies an actor capable of delivering spine-chilling menace. KILL wasn’t just one of the most visceral, edge-of-your-seat action films in recent years it was a career-defining moment for Raghav Juyal.
From comic entertainer to one of Bollywood’s most unpredictable and memorable villains, this performance proved that Raghav is far more than the ‘Slow Motion King’. He’s a performer who can truly haunt you and leave you asking for more. As the film marks its anniversary, fans continue to celebrate Raghav’s dark, twisted, and unforgettable portrayal of Fani a character that reshaped his image and earned him a place among Bollywood’s boldest risk-takers.
The Train Entrance Scene
The moment Fani stepped onto that train, cinema-goers knew they weren’t ready for what was coming. A casual stroll, an eerie grin, and menacing eyes scanning the compartment it wasn’t what he said, it was the silence he carried that sent a chill down every spine. Raghav’s unsettling body language and unspoken threat set the tone for the chaos that followed. One year later, that entrance remains one of Bollywood’s eeriest villain reveals.
The Silent Knife Kill
In a film packed with high-octane action, this scene stands out for its eerie restraint. No words, no background score just Raghav’s cold stare and a swift, merciless kill. It was a masterclass in tension-building, proving that sometimes, silence screams the loudest. The playful glint in Fani’s eyes as he commits his first on-screen murder made this scene disturbingly unforgettable.
The Face-Off with Lakshya (First Encounter)
When Fani locks eyes with Lakshya (Lakshya Lalwani) for the first time, you could cut the tension with a knife. It wasn’t just a physical confrontation it was psychological warfare. Raghav’s calm smirk, his composed menace, and the simmering madness behind those eyes made this one of the most gripping moments of the film. You just knew this battle was far from ordinary.
The Psychotic Monologue Scene
One of KILL’s standout moments came when Raghav’s Fani delivered a monologue that still gives audiences goosebumps. A twisted smile, layered menace, and pauses so unsettling you could hear a pin drop. It was proof that horror doesn’t always need blood sometimes, it lives in words. And Raghav’s bone-chilling delivery ensured this scene would be replayed in fans’ heads long after the credits rolled.
The Final Face-Off with Lakshya
The final, brutal showdown between Fani and Lakshya was the payoff fans waited for. Raghav’s raw, unrelenting madness clashed with Lakshya’s desperation, resulting in one of Bollywood’s most ferocious action climaxes. Every glare, every blow carried emotional weight because by then, the audience fully understood how dangerously unhinged Fani was. And Raghav delivered it with terrifying precision.
