*A R Rahman reacts to an African Kids’ Band dancing to Yethu from Moonwalk*
The Yethu video song from the film Moonwalk has taken Instagram by storm, emerging as a dance sensation and rapidly going viral across the globe.
People from Africa, Japan, the USA, the UK, the UAE, France, Sweden, and several other countries have actively participated in the trend, sharing high-energy reels while staying true to the song’s essence.
The song has crossed 11 million views on YouTube in two weeks of release, with international reviewers reacting to it out of curiosity. Additionally, social media reels with Yethu have crossed 100 million views.
The trend, which began on January 27, continues to gain strength with no signs of slowing down. Extending beyond dancers, musicians and instrumental artists have also begun recreating the song’s beats.
A popular band in Africa - Hypers Kids Africa, did a dance recreation video on the Yethu Song. Adding further significance to this viral wave, legendary music composer A R Rahman commented on their video. “Thank you for the love. You guys are terrific”, A R Rahman posted. The kids’ band too replied back saying - “Happy to see your comment. We love you too”. This moment resonated strongly with fans and creators alike, reinforcing the cultural reach of the track.
A lot of accolades have been coming in for the way Prabhudeva has effortlessly cracked some of the most difficult steps of the song. His high-octane dance backed by A R Rahman’s thumping music, and the way the entire song has been shot have brought a lot of excitement to fans and viewers across the world.
As participation continues to grow, Yethu is evolving into a global dance anthem - celebrating rhythm, unity, and creative expression across borders.
