EXCLUSIVE: Raghav Juyal shares his experience of wearing a ‘cop’ uniform for Gyaarah Gyaarah: “Costumes help you transition…”

“Clothes make the man” goes the adage, and in the world of cinema and television, this couldn’t be truer. The power of costume and makeup can transform actors into their characters instantly. Raghav Juyal, known for his comedic roles, dance performances and playing an anti-hero in Kill is gearing up to essay a serious and different role of a police officer in ZEE5’s upcoming original, Gyaarah Gyaarah. The actor, choreographer, and entertainer recently opened up about his experience of portraying a cop and wearing a uniform for the show. Raghav highlighted how donning the police attire significantly altered his approach to the character and the profound impact that costumes can have on an actor’s performance.

Reflecting on his experience, Raghav Juyal shared, “Costume, make-up, and masking play a very big role in theatre and performing arts. A lot of times, costumes help you transition from the physical to the emotional quotient of your character. Whether you wear an army uniform, a joker costume, or a suit, it changes many things about a character. Even for women – they would feel different if they’re wearing heels versus flats. It makes a significant difference.”

Gyaarah Gyaarah, an adaptation of the Korean drama Signal, is a gripping time-bending thriller set to premiere on ZEE5 on August 9, 2024. The series follows the intertwined fates of three police officers across different timelines. Raghav Juyal plays a young cop in the present day, working alongside his senior officer portrayed by Kritika Kamra, as they tackle various cold cases. Their investigation takes an unexpected turn when Juyal’s character establishes a mysterious connection via walkie-talkie with a police officer from the 1990s, played by Dhairya Karwa. As past and present collide, the trio must navigate the complex consequences of their actions across time, promising viewers a thrilling tale of justice, fate, and the power of connection across eras.
