Prabhu Deva shares workout video with Vadivelu, fans delighted

Actor, director and choreographer Prabhu Deva has delighted fans by sharing a video of himself exercising along with popular comedian Vadivelu, marking a rare public moment featuring the duo together.
Prabhu Deva and Vadivelu last appeared together in the 2001 Tamil film Manadhai Thirudivittai, in which their performances, especially the comedy sequences, were widely appreciated by audiences. The film remains memorable for the chemistry between the lead actors and Vadivelu’s humour.
Vadivelu’s iconic comedy scenes, particularly his ration shop kerosene-buying sequence with the famous “Why… Blood Same Blood” dialogue continues to enjoy immense popularity. These scenes are still widely circulated on social media platforms, especially Instagram, as meme templates and short video clips.
After Manadhai Thirudivittai, Prabhu Deva and Vadivelu did not share screen space together, making the newly shared video all the more special for fans.
On the occasion of Pongal, Prabhu Deva posted the workout video on his official X account. Sharing the clip, he wrote, “If you are born, you will be born. If you exercise, your body will be healthy. Like this. Happy Pongal, Happy Pongal,” adding a touch of humour and positivity.
The video quickly went viral, drawing nostalgic reactions from fans who fondly remember the duo’s earlier collaborations. The post also attracted warm Pongal wishes from followers, who expressed joy at seeing the two artistes together again, even outside the film screen.
