AR Murugadoss shares heartwarming moment with family
AR Murugadoss, the man known for high-octane action dramas and blockbuster thrillers, is now winning hearts offscreen. The acclaimed filmmaker, who has given Tamil cinema some of its biggest hits, recently grabbed headlines not for a teaser or a movie update, but for an adorable and candid moment from his personal life.
In a video that has gone viral across social media platforms, AR Murugadoss is seen dancing to the popular song Kanimaa from the film Retro. But what truly melted hearts was that he wasn’t alone his wife and children joined him on stage, making it a memory to cherish. This unexpected yet delightful performance happened during a family event, reportedly his daughter’s wedding.
A cheerful twist to a challenging phase
Despite facing a tough phase in his professional life following the box office failure of Sikandar, Murugadoss proved that personal joy and family bonding can heal any emotional bruises. The director, usually known for his reserved public appearances, was seen beaming with energy, dancing alongside his son and later joined by his wife.

Murugadoss, a frequent collaborator with Suriya, matched the energy of the song, much to the delight of fans watching the clip online. His dance moves, full of joy and spontaneity, showed a rarely seen personal side that resonated widely across platforms like Instagram and X.
