Jaaved Jaaferi reflects on dance-to-acting journey on India's Best Dancer

Bollywood multi‑hyphenate Jaaved Jaaferi appeared on the latest episode of the dance‑reality show India’s Best Dancer (season 5) alongside fellow dancer Raghav Juyal. During the program he recalled that his career began with winning an All‑India Dance Championship, after which he received acting offers but initially declined, eventually becoming a recognised film star while still performing dance numbers.

Jaaferi also spoke about supporting other dancers, noting that he paid them higher fees than the industry norm. The episode also featured comedian Bharti Singh and her husband Harsh Limbachiyaa. An emotional moment occurred when Juyal saw background dancer Prince, reminding him of his own early struggles and prompting a heartfelt exchange about shared journeys.
