As per a report in Variety India, “Raghav has joined the cast of Nitesh Tiwari's most-anticipated Ramayana. He has been brought on board to play the role of Meghanad (also referred to as Indrajit), the eldest son of Ravana and the crown prince of Lanka. His character will feature in Ramayana Part 2, which is currently scheduled for a Diwali 2027 release.”



The report further mentioned, “The role was initially supposed to be played by Vikrant Massey, but things apparently didn't work out. Raghav was subsequently approached, and he immediately came on board. He is expected to start filming his portions once he has recovered from his injury. In Ramayana, Meghanad is regarded as one of the greatest warriors and one who played a major role in the epic war between Lord Rama and Ravana.”
