Jaaved Jaaferi and his son Meezaan Jafri have been ruling the internet for the past few days with their electrifying father-son dance-off in the song 3 Shaukk from De De Pyaar De 2. Now, taking their much-loved face-off to the next level, the father-son duo has also reunited with the OG Boogie Woogie gang, sparking nostalgia and excitement among fans.
Meezaan Jafri opens up about dancing with father
Meezaan Jafri took to his social media recently to share a behind-the-scenes video from his viral dance-off with his father. Talking about the experience, Meezaan shared, “I was really scared because it was like India’s greatest dancer dancing with you, so naturally everyone on set was on his side and rooting for him, they were watching an icon perform after years.”
He added, “I truly wanted to enjoy the moment and I did, at the end of this I wanted to be at par and do the best I could and the only person who was on my side, rooting for me was my mother over the call, who was telling me that I know everyone must be cheering for your father there but you have to kill it and that`s exactly what I tried to do.”
Jaaved Jaferi on dance face-off with son
Adding to it, Jaaved Jaferi shared his excitement and challenges, saying, “I had done a promotional dance video with Meezaan for his debut film, but this was our first on-screen performance together, and that too, a dance face-off! In the film, we’re on opposite sides; he’s with the girls’ side, and I’m with Ajay’s.”
“The dance style is very modern, something that’s definitely out of my comfort zone. But since it was choreographed by Ganesh, who’s a very good friend, and seeing how well he has guided Meezaan, I pushed myself to match up to today’s generation and their dancing style,” he added, crediting Ganesh.
“Even till the final shot, I had my share of hesitation about my part. But watching Meezaan perform so confidently made me feel like a proud dad, and seeing how much the audience is loving our face-off now makes it all the more special,” Jaaved shared.
