Did you know? Jaaved Jaaferi did the body double for Sanjay Dutt in an iconic dance song

The period of 90’s in Bollywood saw some of the most amazing and iconic dance numbers which still rule the hearts of everyone. Among them, how can one forget composer Bappi Lahiri’s song ‘Tamma Tamma Loge’ in the 1990 released movie ‘Thanedaar’ which featured one of the best onscreen pairs of 90’s, Sanjay Dutt and Madhuri Dixit Nene with their dancing moves. Madhuri had stolen the show in this dance number. Yet, even Sanjay Dutt actually turned to be more a surprise when it came to his dance moves probably the best seen of him on the big screens so far. But hold on! not many would be aware that an another popular actor and dancer Jaaved Jaaferi had did the body double for Sanjay as he couldn’t perform a particular dance sequence.

According to the known facts, this decision was taken by veteran choreographer Saroj Khan as Sanjay couldn’t pull off a sequence (with the chairs) as it needed more of a trained dancer. Jaaved was already a popular name in Bollywood for his dance moves in films like ‘Meri Jung’, and perhaps as he matched the physique and features of Sanjay Dutt, he stepped into his shoes.

Talking about the track, ‘Tamma Tamma Loge’, it will be seen back on the big screens now with a reprised version for movie ‘Badrinath Ki Dulhania’. It would see Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt in the places of Sanjay Dutt and Madhuri Dixit Nene.
