Meezaan & Jaaved Jaaferi Dance It Out in ‘3 Shaukk’ from De De Pyaar De 2 But Does the Choreography Keep Up?

The brand-new single ‘3 Shaukk’ from De De Pyaar De 2 dropped this week, featuring the dynamic father-son duo Jaaved Jaaferi and Meezaan Jaffrey, and while the energy is infectious, the choreography sparks an interesting debate about balance, pace, and generational performance.

Meezaan Jaffrey — A Star Waiting for the Right Project

Ever since his 2019 debut in Malaal opposite Sharmin Segal, many felt Meezaan Jaffrey had all the makings of a commercial Hindi cinema star. The screen presence, the dance talent, and the charm are all there. Yet, his career trajectory has often been weighed down by questionable project choices (Naadaniyaan, anyone?). You know an actor has something special when he still stands out even in a messy production. In 3 Shaukk, Meezaan shines again — his rhythm, ease, and natural flair remind us why he deserves better material and a strong mainstream push.

Jaaved Jaaferi — The ‘Boogie Woogie’ Legend Returns

For anyone who grew up in the cable TV era, Jaaved Jaaferi was the man when it came to dance and style. His quick-footed moves on Boogie Woogie are burned into memory. But at 62, it’s natural that the agility he once had has mellowed with time. And that’s where the new song slightly misses the beat. The choreography for 3 Shaukk feels unnecessarily rushed — a flurry of rapid, high-energy movements that seem designed more to impress than to complement. Instead of letting Jaaved’s legendary charisma and control take center stage, the choreography pushes speed over soul.

When ‘Less Is More’ in Dance

Choreographers sometimes forget that grace > complexity. Watching the same number being performed by Boogie Woogie OG Ravi Behl on Instagram is proof his movements flow with ease, his rhythm feels organic, and there’s a calm confidence in his body language. That’s the magic of experience and knowing when to let the rhythm breathe. Had the song leaned into this “less is more” philosophy, giving both Jaaved and Meezaan room to connect through smoother, more complementary choreography, 3 Shaukk could’ve been a standout father-son moment for the ages.

Verdict

While 3 Shaukk impresses with its energy and the undeniable charisma of the Jaffreys, it could have soared higher with more thoughtful movement design. Sometimes, it’s not about how fast you move — it’s about how much feeling you bring into every step.
