India’s Best Dancer Season 5 continues to deliver memorable moments beyond dance performances, as actor and judge Jaaved Jaaferi recently opened up about his childhood and the values instilled in him by his father. Celebrating the vibrant theme of ‘India Wala Dance’, Jaaved Jaaferi shared heartfelt memories that highlighted the importance of humility, family values, and staying grounded despite fame and success.
Reflecting on his upbringing, Jaaved revealed that although his father had already achieved a reasonable level of stardom when he was born, the family continued to live a simple and modest life.

He recalled growing up in a one-bedroom home where family members shared space and everyday life revolved around close-knit relationships with neighbors. According to Jaaved, concepts such as personal space were unheard of during those days, and he shared a room with his younger brother Naved even after the family moved to a larger apartment.
Jaaved credited his father’s humble background for shaping the family’s outlook on life.
His father had experienced poverty firsthand and ensured that despite achieving success and financial stability, the family never lost sight of their values. Even after Jaaved became a successful film star, the family maintained a simple lifestyle that helped keep them grounded.
A Father’s Silent Influence
During the emotional conversation, Jaaved spoke about the unique role fathers play within families in India’s Best Dancer 5.
While mothers are often more expressive and visibly involved in daily life, he noted that fathers frequently work quietly in the background, making sacrifices that may not always be immediately recognized by their children.
Jaaved admitted that he was often more open with his mother while maintaining a respectful distance from his father. However, as he grew older and became a father himself, he began to appreciate the lessons, guidance, and sacrifices his father had made throughout his life.
His reflections resonated strongly with viewers and fellow judge Remo D’Souza.
Remo D’Souza on the Importance of Values
Joining the conversation, Remo D’Souza shared his own experiences and emphasized that the greatest gift parents can provide their children is not wealth but values and education.
Remo highlighted how his father worked hard despite limited resources and ensured that the family received the guidance and support necessary for life. He stressed that regardless of financial success, teaching children values remains one of the most important responsibilities of any parent.
The heartfelt exchange between Jaaved Jaaferi and Remo D’Souza created one of the most emotional moments of the season, reminding viewers that character, resilience, and humility often come from the lessons learned at home.
