Rockey Raina

Man, Rockey Raina’s been around the block when it comes to Indian cinema. Dude’s popped up in all sorts of movies—Afwaah in 2023, Torbaaz back in 2020, Notebook in 2019 (yeah, the one with all the feels), and who could forget Airlift from 2016? That was a wild ride. He’s not one of those actors who just blends into the background either. There’s something about the way he shows up on screen, you notice him—even if it’s just for a few minutes. He got his start in TV, too. Remember the series 24? Not the Kiefer Sutherland one, the Indian version. Rockey jumped in there in 2016, and then next year, he was in POW, which was all about prisoners of war and had its own gritty charm. He’s one of those guys who can flip between film and TV without breaking a sweat. Then 2022 rolled around, and Rockey decided to dive into OTT territory. He made his streaming debut with Tanaav, and honestly, the dude’s role as Bilal kind of stole the show. People actually started talking about him, not just the projects he was in. It’s like he finally got that breakout moment where you go, “Oh, this guy’s got serious chops.” That performance? Definitely a game-changer for him. You can tell he’s not done yet—he’s just warming up.
