Raghav and Suma's dance goes viral
At the event, Suma invited Raghav on stage, and the two danced to Aaya Sher, drawing massive cheers from the audience and widespread attention online. Raghav Juyal also performed his signature slo-mo walk at the event, leaving the audience cheering for him. Meanwhile, Suma complimented his dance, and the two owned the stage. Later, Raghav returned to the stage when Yeshanagula started playing and invited Suma to join him.
Nani praises Raghav
At the event, Nani praised Raghav Juyal and mentioned that he brought an incredible amount of energy to the new project, even exceeding the intensity of what he showcased in Kill. He said, “Raghav, today’s show is all you. You are the rock star. I feel like the entire internet is going to be filled with you today. You are an entertainer. You don’t need preparation, my brother. You are amazing. You stole the show. And the small, small nuances that he has done — the little things, the way he has performed them so beautifully — when you watch the film, you are going to be shocked. We have never seen something like this in our lives.”
He added, “I think he is a fantastic talent, and I am very, very confident that he will be one of the biggest stars in Indian cinema. And I’ll always be rooting for you, Raghav. You have a brother here in Hyderabad, you know that.”
