Prabhu Deva, often hailed as India’s Michael Jackson, recently shared a proud moment with his son, Rishii Ragvendar Deva. During his live dance concert in Chennai, the legendary choreographer introduced his son to the audience, marking their first time performing together on stage.

The video, which he posted on social media, captured the electrifying moment as the father-son duo danced side by side. Prabhu Deva showcased his signature moves before gracefully stepping aside, allowing Rishii to take center stage. The young dancer impressed the audience with his energetic performance of Petta Rap, a classic hit originally choreographed by his father. Fans quickly showered Rishii with praise, calling him a worthy successor to Prabhu Deva’s dancing legacy.

Prabhu Deva’s influence in the Indian entertainment industry spans over three decades. He has choreographed and performed in Tamil, Hindi, and Telugu films, earning many National Film Awards for Best Choreography. He has been also honored with the Padma Shri. His signature style, blending intricate footwork with expressive storytelling, has inspired generations of dancers.


Beyond his professional achievements, Prabhu Deva’s personal life has also been eventful. He was previously married to Ramlath. The couple had three children, but tragedy struck in 2008 when their eldest son Vishal succumbed to cancer at the age of 13. Their marriage faced turmoil when Prabhu Deva’s relationship with an actress became public. Ramlath filed a legal petition against their relationship, leading to protests from women’s organizations. The couple eventually divorced.
Prabhu Deva later relocated to Mumbai. In 2020, during the COVID-19 lockdown, he married Himani, a Mumbai-based physiotherapist. The couple welcomed a daughter in June 2023, making him a father for the fourth time.
