Social media star Uorfi Javed recently reflected on her career journey, recounting the numerous times she felt like quitting and emphasizing that she never had a backup plan.
Uorfi made a special appearance on "India’s Best Dancer 4" for the lively 'Uorfi Ka Chauka' episode, which featured a fun twist. The show introduced new challenges for the contestants, incorporating unique props they had to use in their routines. Uorfi joined the panel of ‘E.N.T’ (Entertainment, Newness, and Technique) specialists—Karisma Kapoor, Geeta Kapur, and Terence Lewis—adding her own flair to the episode.
During the show, Geeta Kapur posed a question to Uorfi: "As you’ve successfully made a name for yourself, did you ever have to persuade your parents, or was it purely your own decision?"
Uorfi responded, "I left home at 17. My family held conservative views, and I left despite that, so convincing anyone wasn’t an option. My sister and I became the primary earners for our family, which has taught me a lot."
She continued, "There have been countless times I wanted to give up, but I always persevered. I never had a Plan B. What helped me was my consistency, and I believe God's blessings played a significant role in my success."
In a segment of the show, Uorfi challenged contestant Akanksha Mishra, also known as Akina from Lucknow, to incorporate light as a prop in her dance performance.
Akina, together with her choreographer Subhranil, performed to the emotional track ‘Tera Hi Karam’.
Commenting on the performance, Uorfi said, "Just as I embrace unconventional fashion, I gave Akina and Subhranil an unconventional prop—light. I didn’t expect them to manage it, but they did."
She praised the performance, noting, "Creating a unique concept is tough, but it was impressive. The segment with 'karma' stood out particularly. Although dancing isn’t my forte, what I saw was wonderful. I felt like hugging you. Akina, if you continue to work hard, I’m sure God will grant your wishes."
"India’s Best Dancer 4" airs on Sony.
