Ravi Behl Facts
- Ravi was enamored with the great Bruce Lee during his childhood and began practicing karate due to this fascination. He would practice for hours after school and also learned how to perform splits and roundhouse kicks.
- He has often stated that his deep involvement with the highly popular reality TV show Boogie Woogie (which also guaranteed his financial security) and its overwhelming success made him complacent.
- This massively impacted his acting career as he felt that he needed to do nothing else. Ravi hardly appeared in a movie or TV series after the late 1990s.
- After a hiatus of more than 2 decades, he made his acting comeback with the character of Jaiveer ‘Jayu’ Singh in a Hindi-language crime thriller web series called The Night Manager (released in February 2023).
