Prabhu Deva choreographs Nayan's song

Last week the famous dance master Prabhu Deva came to Kottayam and choreographed a dance for Siddique's Bodyguard. The song featured Dileep and Nayanthara.
Remember Prabhudeva is a full fledged film director who had recently done the Vijay- Nayanthara Tamil film Villu. He is also doing the Hindi film Wanted with Salman Khan and Ayesha Takia.
Prabudeva has off late stopped doing choreography and even in Villu he has not done choreography for any of the songs. But in the case of Bodyguard he made an exemption, as Nayan is one of his favourite heroines.
The last time Prabhudeva choreographed a song in Malayalam was some 18 years back when he did Jayaraj's Johnnywalker!
