Prince and Family, the heartfelt comedy drama, is ready for an OTT premiere. The film, directed by Binto Stephen released in the theatres on May 9. Starring Malayalam star Dileep, the movie is set against the backdrop of rural Kerala. The plot centres around an introverted bridal boutique owner, Prince (Dileep), considered the most eligible bachelor in town. He gets married to a woman, Chinchu Rani (Raniya Raanaa), who is the polar opposite of his personality. Soon, chaos and comedy unfold due to their contrasting traits coming into conflict.
Prince and Family will be arriving on Zee5 on June 20. On June 10, Dileep shared the announcement on Instagram. His post was accompanied by a poster of the film, depicting the cast. The side note read, 'Winning the hearts of the audience with big giggles and small bursts, the first family hit of 2025, Prince and Family on our own Zee5 Malayalam from June 20th."
Take a look:
Prince and Family's script is penned by Sharis Mohammed, and the film is produced by Listin Stephen under the banners of Magic Frames. Besides the lead cast, the movie also stars Dhyan Sreenivasan, Siddique, Bindu Panicker, Manju Pillai, Johny Antony, and Josekutty Jacob in key roles.
Not long ago, Dileep expressed his gratitude to fans for Prince and Family's positive response. The 57-year-old, in a conversation with OTT Play, revealed, 'I am obviously thrilled. When Pavi Caretaker was released, we did not get a lot of theatres. Plus, there is a general notion that prevents people from going to theatres to watch my movies anymore. I believe that has changed with this film."
He added, 'More than it being a commercial movie, it also addresses a relevant subject about the influence of social media in our lives. I think that is what has struck a chord with the audience. I could see that response in theatre visits… When veteran actors get good characters in good films, those movies will work. I hope I keep getting those good roles."
Prince and Family carries a special significance, as the film marks Dileep's 150th project in his illustrious career.
