Where to watch Directed by Binto Stephen and written by Sharis Mohammed, the film stars Dileep alongside Dhyan Sreenivasan, Raniya Raanaa, Siddique, Bindu Panicker, Johny Antony, and others in key roles. The movie hit the theatres on May 9 and quickly rose to become a commercial success, drawing audiences with its relatable narrative and entertaining performances. The movie will start streaming on Zee5. A family tale with comedy and conflict 'Prince and Family' tells the story of Prince, an introverted bridal boutique owner who, despite being a local heartthrob, decides to marry someone who is his complete opposite. His unconventional choice disrupts the expectations of his family and community, leading to a series of humorous yet heartfelt situations. The film explores how Prince navigates the challenges of love, family acceptance, and personal growth in a society where traditions often clash with individual choices. 'Padakkalam' Trailer: Suraj Venjaramoodu and Sharafudheen starrer 'Padakkalam' Official Trailer The strong performances from Dileep and the ensemble cast, combined with Sanal Dev's engaging music, contributed to the film's box office appeal and word-of-mouth popularity. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo It became especially significant as a milestone film for Dileep, showcasing him in a role that blends comedy with emotional depth. ETimes verdict - A Relevant Issue Marred By Old-Fashioned Treatment We gave the movie a rating of 3 stars out of 5 and our official review reads, 'The most standout thing about Dileep is Sameera Saneesh's costumes. Otherwise, he plays that typical good guy, responsible husband, caught in 'humorous' situations. Also, the actor is a less energetic version of his old self. And, there is the mandatory allusion to his real-life situation, where Johny Antony's character, who plays Prince's friend, says something about how everyone will believe what they hear on social media. A special mention to the female lead. She has done a vibrant, no-holds barred portrayal of her character. For those who enjoy the typical Dileep brand of comedy, Prince and Family will provide enough laughs. But it might not be enough to engage everyone.'

Olivia Dunne is all smiles in her summer swimsuit look while enjoying downtime with Paul Skenes
Paul Skenes' girlfriend Olivia Dunne enjoys a laid-back golf day as MLB season heats up (Getty Images) Pittsburgh Pirates' rising star Paul Skenes has been nothing short of electric on the mound this season, yet his efforts haven't translated into consistent wins. On Sunday, the 23-year-old right-hander turned in another gem, pitching into the eighth inning for the third time in his last five outings. He gave up just one unearned run in the third but was again handed a no-decision. Olivia Dunne ditches gym gear for golf swings and sunshine with Paul Skenes on the east coast Despite boasting a stunning 1.52 ERA over 53.1 innings in recent appearances, Skenes has come away with only one win in his last eight starts. Overall, he's 4-6 across 14 games this season, but his remarkable 1.88 ERA and minuscule 0.84 WHIP clearly underscore his dominance. Off the field, Skenes seems to have found a sense of balance thanks to his girlfriend, Olivia Dunne. The social media sensation has been offering fans a closer look at their downtime together. Her recent Instagram post titled 'east coast summer' delighted followers with a carousel of serene snapshots—including a candid of Skenes golfing, a quiet escape from the pitching pressure. Dunne, who rose to fame as an LSU gymnast, has effortlessly transitioned into a model and influencer. Just days ago, she captured the spotlight at the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Fashion Show. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like USDJPY đang đi lên không?
