'Boogie Woogie' to go international
The show 'Boggie Woogie' (Sony) was one of the first dance shows to hit the television screens. The presence of judge and host Javed Jaffrey and the sweet and sour interaction between hosts and producers Naved Jaffrey and Ravi Behl have only added to the entertainment value of the talent show.
Now, there are plans to launch the show internationally as well. "Yes, there are plans to take 'Boogie Woogie' abroad. By God's grace, the show is doing very well here," says Javed.
Javed further reasons, "If we can ape other shows or even start Indian versions of international series by taking their franchise, why can't we take our shows to an international level?"
Apart from the show, Javed is busy with his movies, the latest one being 'Dhamaal' where he shares screen space with Sanjay Dutt.
"It's sheer modesty on Sanju's part to share equal screen space with other actors. He has no complexes. Not all actors are open to this," says Javed who feels his dancing skills and comic flair are God's gifts.
"I had it in my genes as well, though I had to work a lot on my comic timing. Watching my dad (veteran comedian Jagdeep) in his movies was another learning influence," says Javed.
Speaking on his brother, Javed says, "Naved is totally involved with 'Boogie Woogie'. He is more of a party person. I spend my free time at home with my kids. But Naved is young, single and ready to mingle," laughs Javed.
Incidentally, 'Boogie Woogie' has been on air for almost 10 years.
