Choreographer-turned-actor-director Prabhudheva has dropped the first-look poster for his upcoming action-comedy feature, Moonwalk, generating immediate buzz on social media. The post read: "Babootty & Friends - His journey begins! Moonwalk a feature film Starring @PDdancing @iYogiBabu @AjuVarghesee #ArjunAshokan Directed by Manoj Nirmala Sreedharan, Music by @arrahman, Produced by #ManojNirmalaSreedharan #DivyaManoj and #Praveenelak @Satzsathish321 @NishmaChengapp5 #SushmithaNayak #MottaiRajendran #LolluSabhaSwaminathan @KingsleyReddin #DeepaShankar #Drsanthoshjacob #RamkumarNatarajan @behindwoods @LahariMusic @Romeopictures_ @teamaimpr #MoonwalkTheFeatureFilm"
The poster teases a lively beachside ensemble with Prabhudheva in the lead, supported by Yogi Babu, Aju Varghese, and Arjun Ashokan. Directed by Manoj Nirmala Sreedharan, founder of Behindwoods, the film promises a blend of dance, comedy, and action with a distinctly pan-Indian flavor.
The project reunites Prabhudheva with A.R. Rahman for the sixth time since their 1994 hit Kadhalan, with the recently released anthem Storm – The Moonwalk Anthem setting the tone for a musical fantasy-meets-action narrative. The film’s high-energy sequences are expected to leverage Prabhudheva’s signature dance style while integrating elaborate choreography within the story.
Adding a fun, personal touch, the poster features a Chennai Super Kings-themed yellow Range Rover, nodding to Prabhudheva’s IPL fandom and signaling the film’s playful, larger-than-life approach. The ensemble promises comedy and camaraderie, making it a summer-friendly release for 2026.
Produced under Romeo Pictures and Lahari Music, Moonwalk targets a worldwide theatrical release, with the team aiming to combine action, comedy, and musical spectacle into a unique cinematic experience. The film’s combination of star power, Rahman’s music, and Prabhudheva’s dance sensibilities positions it as one of the most anticipated pan-Indian films of the upcoming year.
