5 July 2023, Mumbai: Known for his lively and adventurous persona on social media platforms, Raghav Juyal is all set to showcase his action-packed side in the upcoming action thriller “Yudhra” from Excel Entertainment. According to sources close to the actor, he underwent rigorous boxing training to execute high-octane stunts in this genre-defining film, marking a first for him in the action genre. Raghav dedicated himself to intense training sessions encompassing various aspects of boxing, including running, High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), mitt work, sparring, strength and conditioning, and boxing drills.
During his training, Raghav meticulously followed a routine similar to that of a professional boxer. He focused on smooth and clean speed bag drills, hitting the heavy bag for 3-minute intervals in each training session, and incorporated 30-second punching “sprints” to enhance his arm endurance. Additionally, he followed a strength training regime to further enhance his physical capabilities.
Expressing his thoughts on the training, Raghav shared, “I have previously pursued boxing but took a break from it. However, when I was approached for the film, I resumed my training, and it proved to be extremely beneficial for my role in ‘Yudhra.’ The film is a thrilling action-packed experience, and this skill set has been a valuable addition to my character’s preparation.”
Apart from “Yudhra,” Raghav Juyal’s upcoming project includes “Gyarah Gyarah,” a thriller film produced by Oscar winner Guneet Monga’s Sikhya Entertainment. The film is set to release on the digital platform Zee5 in the near future.
