Career
Raaghavan made his acting debut through the cop drama Sethupathi (2016) portraying the son of the character played by Vijay Sethupathi. The film won positive reviews, as did Raaghavan's performance, with a critic from Sify.com noting that the "two kids who played as Vijay Sethupathi’s children are too good".[2] His next film, Rekka (2016), saw Raaghavan play the younger version of Vijay Sethupathi's character. He garnered attention for his acting in the video for the song "Kannamma" for the film.
Raaghavan continued to play pivotal roles as a child artist in Tamil films in the late 2010s, often portraying the child of the film's lead character such as in Bhaskar Oru Rascal (2018) and Maari 2 (2018); or the younger version of the lead actor such as in Hero (2019), Vaanam Kottattum (2020) and Enemy (2021). He also appeared in the Telugu film, Uppena (2021), as the younger version of the male protagonist.
In 2022, he appeared as the younger version of Vikram's character in Mahaan, and shot for his scenes in Kanchipuram.[3] Raaghavan next was seen in Mani Ratnam's Ponniyin Selvan: I (2022) and Ponniyin Selvan: II (2023) portraying the Pandya prince.[4]
