Prince Movie Review: శివకార్తికేయన్‌ (Sivakarthikeyan), మరియా (Maria) నటించిన ‘ప్రిన్స్‌’ ఎలా ఉందంటే?

Prince Review: చిత్రం: ప్రిన్స్‌; నటీనటులు: శివకార్తికేయన్‌, మరియా, సత్యరాజ్‌, ప్రేమ్‌జీ తదితరులు; సంగీతం: తమన్‌; ఛాయాగ్ర‌హ‌ణం: మనోజ్‌ పరమహంస; కూర్పు: ప్రవీణ్‌ కె.ఎల్‌.; దర్శకత్వం: అనుదీప్‌ కేవీ; నిర్మాతలు: సునీల్‌ నారంగ్‌, డి.సురేశ్‌బాబు, పుష్కర్‌ రామ్‌ మోహన్‌ రావు; విడుద‌ల‌: 21-10-2022

ఓ సినిమా విజయం ప్రభావం కచ్చితంగా ఆ తర్వాత సినిమా మీద ఉంటుంది. అంతేకాదు తొలి సినిమా స్థాయికి ఏమాత్రం తగ్గినా ‘అబ్బే’ అనేస్తారు. అందులోనూ గత సినిమా భారీ విజయం అందుకుంటే ఇంకా కష్టం. అచ్చంగా ఇలాంటి పరిస్థితుల్లోనే సినిమా చేశారు దర్శకుడు అనుదీప్‌ కేవీ (Anudeep KV). ‘జాతిరత్నాలు’ ఘనవిజయం తర్వాత ‘ప్రిన్స్‌’ అంటూ తమిళ, తెలుగు భాషల్లో సినిమా చేశారు. శివకార్తికేయన్‌ ( Sivakarthikeyan ) కథానాయకుడిగా తెరకెక్కిన ఆ సినిమా ఎలా ఉంది? ‘ప్రిన్స్‌’ (Prince Review) నవ్వించాడా లేదా చూద్దాం. 

కథేంటంటే?:  ఆనంద్‌ (శివకార్తికేయన్‌ - Sivakarthikeyan) ఓ స్కూలు టీచర్‌. క్లాసులు ఎగ్గొట్టి సినిమాలకు వెళ్లేంత స్ట్రిక్ట్‌ టీచర్‌. అలాంటి కుర్రాడు స్కూల్లో ఇంగ్లిష్‌ టీచర్‌గా చేరిన జెస్సికా (మరియా) అనే బ్రిటిష్‌ అమ్మాయిని చూసి మనసు పారేసుకుంటాడు. వీరి ప్రేమను జెస్సికా తండ్రి అంగీకరించడు. దీంతో ప్రేమ పెళ్లిళ్లకు బాగా సపోర్టు చేసే తన తండ్రి విశ్వనాథ్‌ (సత్యరాజ్‌ - Satyaraj) దగ్గరకు వెళ్తాడు. అయితే అతను మాత్రం షాక్‌ ఇస్తాడు. అప్పటివరకు లవ్‌గురులా మాటలు చెప్పిన విశ్వనాథ్‌ ఒక్కసారి వ్యతిరేకం అయిపోతాడు. అప్పటివరకు ప్రేమ పోరాటంలా కనిపించిన ఈ కథ రెండు దేశాల మధ్య పోరులా మారిపోతుంది. దీంతో ఆనంద్‌ తన ప్రేమను ఎలా గెలిపించుకున్నాడు అనేదే సినిమా కథ. 

ఎలా ఉందంటే?: యాక్షన్‌ ఓరియెంటెడ్‌, ఫ్యామీలీ బ్యాక్‌డ్రాప్‌, మాఫియా డాన్‌.. ఇలాంటి బ్యాక్‌డ్రాప్‌లో వచ్చే సినిమాలు కాస్త స్లో అయినా.. ప్రేక్షకులు అడ్జెస్ట్‌ అవుతారు. కానీ, కామెడీనే నమ్ముకుని సినిమా చేసేటప్పుడు థియేటర్‌లో ఎప్పుడూ నవ్వులు వినిపిస్తూనే ఉండాలి. అరుపులు, కేకలు మోగుతూనే ఉండాలి. ఇది సగటు ప్రేక్షకుడి ఆలోచన. అందుకే నవ్వించడం, నవ్వించే సినిమా చేయడం అంత ఈజీ కాదంటారు. అయితే దీనికి అక్కడకక్కడా చెర్రీ లాంటి ఎమోషన్స్‌ కూడా ఉండాలి. ‘ప్రిన్స్‌’ విషయంలో ఈ పాయింట్‌ దగ్గరే సమ్‌థింగ్‌ మిస్సింగ్‌ అనిపిస్తుంది. 

నిన్న చెప్పిన జోక్‌, నిన్నవేసిన పంచ్‌ ఈ రోజు వేస్తే సినిమా నుంచి ప్రేక్షకుడు డీవియేట్‌ అయిపోతాడు. కొత్తదనమేమీ లేదా అంటూ ఓ చిన్న ప్రశ్న లాంటి ఫేస్‌ పెడతాడు. ఇప్పుడు ‘ప్రిన్స్‌’ విషయంలోనూ అదే జరిగింది. చదువుకున్నా అల్లరి చిల్లరగా తిరిగే ఓ కుర్రాడు, అతనికి ముగ్గురు స్నేహితులు.. పెద్దింటి అమ్మాయిని ప్రేమిస్తాడు, ఎలాగోలా ఆ అమ్మాయిని తన అమాయకత్వం, మంచితనంతో ప్రేమలో ఒప్పిస్తాడు. ఈలోగా ఓ సమస్య వచ్చిపడుతుంది, దాన్ని హీరో ఎలా క్లియర్‌ చేశాడు. ఈ కథ ‘జాతిరత్నాలు’లో మొన్నే చూశాం. ఇంచుమించు అదే తరహా స్క్రీన్‌ప్లేతో మళ్లీ ‘ప్రిన్స్‌’ చేశారు. దీంతో ప్రేక్షకుడికి కొత్తదనం కనిపించక కూర్చొన్న కుర్చీలోనే కూలబడతాడు. అక్కడక్కడా కొన్ని పంచ్‌లు, ఫేస్‌ ఎక్స్‌ప్రెషన్లు పేలి చిన్నగా నవ్వుకుంటాడు. అది తప్ప ‘ప్రిన్స్‌’ చూపించిన మెరుపులేవీ పెద్దగా లేవు.

ఎవరెలా చేశారంటే?:  హీరో ఓరియెంటెడ్‌ కామెడీ సినిమాలకు మన దగ్గర మంచి ట్రాక్‌ రికార్డు ఉంది. ఆ సినిమాల్లో హీరో ఒంటి చేత్తో సినిమాను నడిపిస్తాడు. ఇప్పుడు ‘ప్రిన్స్‌’ విషయంలోనూ అదే జరిగింది. శివకార్తికేయన్‌ సినిమాను సింగిల్‌ హ్యాండ్‌తో డీల్‌ చేశాడు. ఉక్రెయిన్‌ భామ మరియ తన పాత్ర పరిధి మేరకు చక్కగా నటించింది. ఇక చెప్పుకోవాల్సిన పాత్రలో ముఖ్యమైనది సత్యరాజ్‌. విశ్వనాథం అనే పొగడ్తలకు పడిపోయే సగటు వ్యక్తిగా అదరగొట్టారు. తెలియని విషయాలు తెలుసు అని చెప్పి ఆయన నవ్వించే విధానం అదిరిపోతుంది. ప్రేమ్‌జీ అమేరన్‌ తనదైన పంచ్‌లు, రియాక్షన్లతో అదరగొట్టాడు.

సాంకేతిక నిపుణుల విషయానికొస్తే మనోజ్‌ పరమహంస కెమెరా పనితనం బాగుంది. పాటలు అందంగా చిత్రీకరించారు. మిగిలిన సన్నివేశాల్లో అంత స్కోప్‌ లేదు. తమన్‌ పాటలు బాగున్నాయి. గతంలో విన్నట్టే ఉన్నా బాణీలు బాగున్నాయి. వాటిని చిత్రీకరించిన విధానమూ బాగుంది. నిర్మాణ విలువల పరంగా ఎక్కడా తగ్గలేదు. ఆఖరిగా చెప్పాల్సింది దర్శకుడు అనుదీప్‌ గురించి. ‘అలాంటి సినిమానే కావాలి అంటే.. అదే కథ మళ్లీ తీశాడు’ అని అదే సినిమాలో చెప్పినట్లు.. అనుదీప్‌ అదే పని చేశారు. అయితే ‘జాతిరత్నాలు’లో వర్కౌట్‌ అయిన రైటింగ్‌ మ్యాజిక్‌ ఇక్కడ వర్కౌట్‌ అవ్వలేదు. 

తెలుగు సినిమా అని ఈ సినిమా ప్రారంభించినప్పటికీ ఆ తర్వాత తమిళంలో తీసి తెలుగులోకి అనువదించారు. ఆ వాసన సినిమా అంతటా కనిపిస్తుంటుంది. అలాగే సత్యరాజ్‌ తప్ప తెలుగు సినిమాలో విరివిగా నటించే ఒక్క నటుడూ ఇందులో కనిపించలేదు. దీంతో నేటివిటీ సమస్య బాగా కనిపిస్తుంది. దాంతో ఆ నటులు పంచ్‌లు వేస్తున్నా కనెక్ట్‌ అవ్వవు. అనుదీప్‌ స్టైల్‌ వన్‌ లైనర్స్‌, కౌంటర్‌ పంచ్‌లు చాలానే ఉన్నాయి. అందులో కొన్ని మాత్రమే నవ్వులు పూయిస్తాయి. 

+ శివకార్తికేయన్‌ నటన

+ కొన్ని కామెడీ సీన్స్‌

- తెలిసిన, ట్విస్ట్‌లు లేని కథ

- కొత్తదనం కొరవడటం

Prince Review: Silly, But Funny

Movie: Prince Rating: 2.75/5 Banner: Sree Venkateswara Cinemas LLP Cast: Sivakarthikeyan, Maria Riaboshapka, Sathyaraj, and others Story: Anudeep KV & Mohan Sato Music: Thaman S Cinematography: Manoj Paramahamsa Editor: Praveen KL Producers: Suniel Narang, D.SureshBabu, Puskur Ram Mohan Rao Release Date: October 21, 2022

Ever since “Prince” was announced, the film generated hype as it marks the combination of Tamil rising star Sivakarthikeyan and “JathiRatnalu” fame Anudeep. The bilingual hit the theaters today in Telugu and Tamil simultaneously.

Let’s find out whether Anudeep generates laughs again.

Story: Anand (Sivakarthikeyan) works as a teacher in school. His father Vishwanatham (Sathyaraj, a retired employee, wants his children to marry outside their caste or religion.

Vishwanatham is overjoyed when he finds his son fell in love with a foreigner Jessica (Maria), an English teacher in his son’s school.

The only problem is that Vishwanatham hates British people and Jessica turns out to be a British woman.

How will Anand resolve this issue and get married to Jessica?

Artistes’ Performances: Sivakarthikeyan became a huge star in the Tamil film industry with a series of hits like “Doctor” and “Don” and he is good at comedy. The role of Anand is in his zone. He pulls it off so easily.

Ukrainian actress Maria Riaboshapka suits perfectly. Sathyaraj is a huge asset to this film. He takes the responsibility of the main comedian. The film doesn’t have separate comedians. The comedy parts are taken care of by Sivakarthikeyan and Sathyaraj.

Premgi Amaren as a land grabber is neat. The film has only Tamil actors.

Technical Excellence: Thaman has given a peppy soundtrack. Two songs stand out – “Jessica Chilaka” and “‘Bimbilikki Pilapi”. The visuals are bright and colorful.

The film has a short running time but it gives a feel of a lengthy film due to its flimsy plotline. 

Highlights: Anudeep’s mark dialogues The first half The climax comedy

Drawback: No emotional connect Repetitive jokes

Analysis Sathyaraj plays a character who boasts of himself as a very knowledgeable person. He tells his son’s girlfriend that he has mastery over the Telugu language. Around the same time, his son’s phone rings and the ring tone is “Lusku Tapa Lasku Tapa” song. She asks what that means. The funniness of this situation cannot be described in words. Only one would get it while watching. Then there is a five-minute comedy scene about “Bottle gourd” aka sorakaya. After this another worth mentioning scene is of the police station with Anand Raj and the friends of Shiva Karthikeyan. These are three sequences in “Prince" which make the audience laugh.  

Anudeep has a peculiar style of comedy writing. His situations look silly but they work well if the actors can pull them off. Sivakarthikeyan and Sathyaraj have done their best in many places.

The comedy written here is for an educated A center audience.  This cannot be relished by the C-center audience who doesn't know about bottle gourd and Cambridge. Such viewers may miss the taste in funny single liners. 

Moreover, nativity is totally missing in the film with Tamil actors all over. There should have been a mix of Telugu audience like in pan India style films. Had that been done, the range of the film would have gone to the next level. Barring that limitation, everything goes well. 

Anudeep ends his films well. In “Prince”, too, it ended on a funny note. All said, “Prince” is neither a laughing riot nor a boring watch. It lands somewhere in between. Like Anudeep’s previous movie, it is silly but offers some decent comedy portions.

Bottom line: Works in parts

Prince movie review: Sivakarthikeyan’s absurd comedy drama works in parts

Prince movie review: director anudeep’s brand of comedy is unique and might not be for everyone..

I should perhaps put a disclaimer that I haven’t seen Jathi Ratnalu , and so I found the comedy of director Anudeep pretty unique and largely silly in Tamil. Mind you, you don’t end up laughing at the film. The absurdity of it all is very much intended. Many stretches are laugh riots – especially the one around the bottle gourd. The heroine Jessica (Maria Ryaboshapka) asks the hero Anbu (Sivakarthikeyan) to take her to a good vegetable shop. They end up in a neighborhood store run by a couple. The wife proudly claims that she married the guy because he is well-versed in English. Yet, when Jessica asks for a bottle gourd, he doesn’t know what that vegetable is supposed to be. Neither does our hero. Now, the whole sequence is about two guys trying to save their faces in front of their loved ones. The exchanges are mindless, ludicrous, and silly… but they are outrageously funny. However, we don’t get those bits a lot in Prince, which is otherwise a mediocre fare.

The brain of Anudeep should be an exciting place. It is hard to articulate his sense of comedy, and harder to come up with things like how Anbu’s voiceover introduces his father Ulaganathan (Sathyaraj): “ Ivar thaan enga appa. Enna vida moothavaru (This is my dad. He is older than me).” I was caught off guard. I had to turn right and left to make sure that what I heard was right. A few more minutes into the film, I understood the brand of comedy. There’s nothing funny about the lines, the humour stems from how incongruous and absurd they are with the situation. How do you explain this emotional dialogue from Anbu towards the end of the film that tries to soothe his estranged dad: “ Pechu pottila jeichapa kuda, Appanu naan un pera thaanae sonane (When I won in speech competition, I proudly called you as my father).” What’s funny in stating the obvious, you might ask. Still, it’s hard to figure out why you are laughing at it. The moment you try to explain Anudeep’s sense of humour, you will end up missing the point. It’s neither sophisticated nor pedestrian… I would like to call it ‘ingeniously silly’.

All said and done, Prince as a film fails to keep you engrossed. It is so obvious that the hilarious stretches are connected by a generic thread about a love story between a Tamil guy and a Brit girl. Anbu’s father Ulaganathan is an anti-casteist villain. Son of a slain freedom fighter, he takes pride in denouncing caste, creed and religion, but when his daughter marries someone in the family, he is shamed. So, he warns Anbu that he should never marry anyone from the same caste. Anbu, a social science teacher, exceeds his father’s expectations by falling in love with his colleague Jessica, an English teacher. Not just caste, he transcends race, ethnicity, country, etc with his love. So, the conflict arises when Ulaganathan realises that Jessica is British. He doesn’t want someone from the country that enslaved Indians for two hundred years and who also killed his father.

However, ‘conflict’ is a strong word for a film that doesn’t take itself seriously even for a nanosecond. There’s only a semblance of a story that doesn’t move forward at all. You keep waiting for the next good stretch. If you were to watch the film on OTT, you would have skipped the customary bridges that connect the good stretches, and you would still not miss anything. Another redeeming factor of Prince is Sivakarthikeyan. Just his affable presence sets a good mood, and one should give it to him for experimenting with this unique humour. Perhaps, this is the most experimental movie in his career yet. When the film ended with the end card ‘Subam’, an obsolete practice in Tamil cinema, I realised that I won’t remember Prince for a long time. But that doesn’t seem to be the intention. The point is to make you laugh for those few stretches, and maybe it’s a win… after all.

BJP's alliance with PMK in Tamil Nadu, known for its anti-Hindutva stance, aims to strengthen its presence through caste politics. The party plans to appeal to middle castes and merge caste and religious identities, but faces challenges from the state's strong Dravidian social reform movement and history of resistance. Success of this strategy remains uncertain.

Prince Review

What's Behind

Sivakarthikeyan is on a high, scoring hit with dubbing films Varun Doctor and Don. When he teamed with KV.Anudeep of Jathi Ratnalu fame for a bilingual entertainer, and people for excited as it marks his debut in Tollywood. The film's OTT rights have been bagged by Disney+Hotstar and will be streamed after it completes its theatrical run. The film is releasing today October 21, 2022, and let us see what Sivakarthikeyan offered to Telugu viewers on debut.

Story Review

The story of Prince is about a youngster who faces problems due to restrictions in society in his village. Anand (Sivakarthikeyan), a social teacher gets a huge shock when the people in his village decide to get him banned. Why the villagers decided to get Anand banned and what is the connection between his father Vishwantham(Sathyaraj), and British girl Jessie (Maria Ryaboshapka) to these developments, form part of the developments in Prince's life.

Artists, Technicians Review

The Story of Prince penned by KV.Anudeep of Jathi Ratnalu fame is very simple and he believed in creating humor out of it and entertaining viewers and score a hit. Anudeep tried to recreate the magic he created with his film Jathi Ratnalu but he failed to do so. Anudeep is failing to realize that he cannot continue in the same vein and come up with the same old formula for all the films without any powerful story. He believed only in slapstick comedy which at times worked but most of the time it failed ending up irritating the viewers. Just for a few comedy scenes, people are in no mood to come out to theatres as there are many such scenes available on Youtube. The story of Prince turned out to be extremely weak and routine and from then on his screenplay and direction turned out to be pathetic making viewers run towards the exit doors in the theatres.

Sivakarthikeyan is known for his ease in acting. He did full justice to his role with his dialogue delivery and comedy timing. Satyaraj did full justice to the role of Sivakarthikeyan's father. The scenes involving Sivakarthikeyan and Satyaraj came out quite well. Ukrainian beauty, Maria Ryaboshapka looked beautiful on screen but she got limited opportunities to showcase her talent. Despite Sivakartikeyan and Satyaraj trying their best to carry the film on their shoulders and, Maria Ryaboshapka trying her best to keep viewers glued to the screen, their attempts failed due to lack of real story in the film. Lot of Tamil actors and flavor robbed Telugu movie lovers the cinematic experience. 

Thaman's music is ok and a couple of songs Bimbiiki Pilapi and Jessica are good. His background score made an impact. Manoj Paramahamsa's cinematography beautified the film with realistic visuals. Editing of Praveen left a lot to be desired but he cannot be blamed because had he used the scissors, there wouldn't have been any film.

• Siva Karthikeyan
• The climax to some extent

Disadvantages

• Story,Screenplay,Direction
• Lackluster elements

Rating Analysis

Altogether,  Sivakarthikeyan must have thought that he would conquer Tollywood by teaming with KV.Anudeep of Jathi Ratnalu fame after creating a market for himself with films like Varun Doctor and Don. But all his dreams came down crashing as KV. Anudeep instead of believing that a strong story and content are the recipe for success, doled out a silly story filled with scenes that are popular in comedy skits and youtube channels. With the atrocious story, senseless and spineless screenplay, and wayward direction, everything went awry. Altogether Prince turned out to be a novice. Considering all these aspects, Cinejosh goes with a 1.75 rating to Prince.

What’s it about?

Anand (Sivakarthikeyan), a teacher in a Krishna district village, falls in love with Jessica (Maria Riaboshapka), a new recruit teaching English at the same school. Vishwanatham, Anand’s father,is an idealist who makes his son write in a letter that he will only marry outside of their caste. When Vishwanatham learns that his son is in love with a girl from a French colony, his joy knows no bounds.

Jessica, much to Vishwanatham’s surprise, is not a French girl but has British ancestors. Vishwanatham and his grandfather despise everything British. So, how do Anand and Jessica become one?

‘Prince,’ a dubbed version of the Tamil film of the same name, is the third film from director Anudeep, who rose to prominence with the comedy entertainer “Jathi Ratnalu.”

Anudeep, like ‘Jathi Ratnalu,’ wrote a silly and absurd storyline. He places little emphasis on the story and instead concentrates on the laughs. To some extent, he succeeds. In today’s world, can anyone imagine a father objecting to his son’s love because the girl is British? And the central conflict becoming patriotism versus humanity? It makes no sense unless we interpret it as a sly satire on the current political environment and fake nationalism.

If we don’t take the story seriously, there are a couple of funny scenes. There are some clever dialogues as well. When everyone is attentively listening to hero’s speech about humanity, a world without borders, he confesses that he heard the word “border” for the first time in his life when his mother was comparing her Saree border (bottom of the Saree) with neighbour auntee’s. You’d definitely jump out of your seat.

“Lusku Papa” and “Halamithi Habibo” are two satires on meaningless lyrics. Nonetheless, the film has a song with a meaningless phrase – Bimbilikki Pilapi.

‘Prince’ is, in fact, more of a collection of jokes or scenes than a story. We’ll see an episode about the Telugu meaning of “Bottle Gourd,” followed by another about movie lyrics, and finally about the meanings of Humanity and E = MC Square. Some dialogues are clever and witty. Sarcasm is also difficult to obtain.

Even mundane scenes in “Jathi Ratnalu” provided big laughs, thanks to the performances of Naveen Polishetty, Priyadarshi, Rahul Ramakrishna, and Vennela Kishore. There aren’t many jokes here.

Sivakarthikeyan has played his part admirably. He’s in his element. He’s also charming. Sathyaraj is a revelation. His comedic timing is flawless.

Maria, the newcomer, plays her part well.

Thaman has performed admirably among the technicians. The songs are catchy. The cinematography of Manoj Paramhamsa is vibrant.

Bottom line: ‘Prince’ has silliness, irreverence, and laugh-out-loud moments in equal parts. Some jokes are good, but they are repetitive.

Prince Movie Review

Article by Nanda Gopal Published by GulteDesk --> Published on: 5:15 pm, 21 October 2022 | Updated on 11:34 am, 26 October 2022

2 Hr 23 Min   |   Comedy   |   21-10-2022

Cast - Sivakarthikeyan, Maria Riaboshapka, Sathyaraj, and others

Director - Anudeep KV

Producer - Suniel Narang, D.SureshBabu, Puskur Ram Mohan Rao

Banner - Sree Venkateswara Cinemas LLP

Music - Thaman S

Jathi Ratnalu fame Anudeep is back with a quirky comedy. This time he collaborated with Siva Karthikeyan and made it on large scale in Telugu-Tamil as bilingual. Did Siva Karthikeyan and Anudeep recreate the magic of Jathi Ratnalu and Varun Doctor? Did the duo live upto the expectations? Let’s find out.

Anand (Siva Karthikeyan) works as a social teacher in a small town. He falls for British girl Jessica (Maria Ryaboshapaka) who is his colleague. Anand’s father (Sathyaraj), who is a broad natured, unable to accept Jessica owing to her British nationality since his grandfather was killed by British. Jessica’s father turns against her love for his own reasons. Meanwhile, Jessica’s family land in the town is wanted by local Bhupathi this invites big troubles and leads to disturbances in their love story. How does Anand resolves it and wins Jessica forms the crux of the story.

Performances

Siva Karthikeyan is game for comedy. He does it again effortlessly. He slips into the role of Anand which is likely by youth and also has good principles. His comic persona drives the film forward. Jessica is good in emotional scenes. Sathyaraj does an impactful performance in a soft role. He generates fun. All the cast plays their parts well. The film intentionally has more Tamil actors which may affect the Telugu nativity.

Technicalities

Anudeep picked a wafer-thin plot which itself is quirky and comical. But he added his trademark comedy to make it even more hilarious. Visuals are refreshing, credit goes to cinematographer Manoj Paramahamsa. Thaman, who is of late catering thumping background score and loud music, impresses with feel-good and soothing music.

Siva Karthikeyan Laugh Moments Dialogues & Music

Hero-Heroine Love Track Logics Goes For Toss

Audiences are still not out of pandemic fatigue which is why there is good scope for comedy films to work miraculously well at the ticket windows. Relying on the same, Anudeep, who is fresh from heat of Jathi Ratnalu success, attempted the similar feat. He is successful largely. He caters to fun-loving masses with irreverent humour. Siva Karthikeyan adds his touch to it.

Simply put, Prince is Jathi Ratnalu version 2.0 with different scale, set-up. It has all the elements to work. But the problem is it underscores on logics. The film delivers nonsensical laughs throughout. Siva Karthikeyan goes on delivering lengthy speeches reminding us of courtroom scene in Jathi Ratnalu. Yet, it worked. It keeps viewers in splits.

Kudos to Anudeep. Inanities all over the film. Even the supporting cast and side cast keep uttering inane lines generating fun. It is the humour quotient that keeps us invested in the film. The dominance of Tamil cast may affect the Telugu nativity and sensibilities. Dialogues deserve special mention as they bring cheer immediately. The makers rely on dialogue-humour. The hero-heroine love track needs more attention. It has no emotional connect.

Overall, the film has its moments. It only runs on laughs with no logics. Go for it if you want to keep your brains at home and enjoy the laugh ride in cinemas. It may not be another Jathi Ratnalu but Prince is Prince ( in Anudeep’s words).

Bottom line: All Laughs, No Logics!

Rating: 2.75/5

Prince Review

• Music Review

'Prince' hit the screens today (Oct 21). In this section, we are going to review the latest box office release.

The story is set somewhere in the Krishna district. Anand (Sivakarthikeyan) is a dumb school teacher who is known for being too silly and at times buffoonish. Sathyaraj plays his comically reformist father who is after higher ideals rather than wealth and narrow identities.

Jessica (Maria Riaboshapka), a Britisher, is the hero's colleague. They both hit it off quite well and soon fall in love. But things take a comically awry turn when they decide to get married. Meanwhile, a land-grabber named Bhupathy (Premgi Amaren) is after a piece of land owned by Jessica's father in the town. Can the duo get married against all odds?

In an interview, Sivakarthikeyan said that 'Prince' is about a village populated by naive people. Even the male lead and his father are childlike. Director Anudeep KV constructs a story around this premise.

Since this is a comedy entertainer, most of the jokes should have fallen into place while demanding as much popcorn as possible from the cine-goer. But even the scenes that are expected to be top-billed suffer from weak humour. What is so funny about the male lead saying that he lets only those students who don't know the answer resort to malpractices in an exam? This would have worked well as spontaneous, character-driven humour in a 'Jathi Ratnalu', which is Anudeep KV's previous film and first blockbuster. But here, everything is sub-par.

The small-town backdrop of the film hasn't been tastefully translated on the big screen. The film looks too short on the scale.

Jessica says that she feels excited in Anand's presence, giving a hint that the love track is mired in cliches. Even lines like "You are very kind-hearted. I won't leave you" have been delivered with a degree of pretense.

The absurd comedy draws laughs to an extent in the first half. However, in the second half, the comedy wears thin. The climax segment is where 'Prince' again finds its feet. But, by then, the audience's patience goes dry.

The comedy built around Sathyaraj's character doesn't go beyond one or two ideas. Premgi Amaren's character is incredulous.

Sivakarthikeyan would work if you see 'Prince' as a Tamil original dubbed into Telugu. The actor is cheery and all, but he should have brought out his character traits better. The heroine, Maria, is a good find. Sathyaraj is the only enjoyable one among the non-lead artists.

Thaman's music assumes significance during the songs. It's content with the tonal quality and scale of 'Prince'. Cinematographer Manoj Paramahamsa would have delivered a far more useful work had the setting of the film been upscale. Editing has been handled by Praveen KL. The running time was cut short by 12 minutes after the Censor works were done. The duration of 131 minutes shows that things have been wrapped up in a contrived way in the pre-climax and climax stages.

'Prince' goes haywire after the first hour. The comedy is dry and the jokes are bland for the most part.

Rating: 2.25 / 5.0

Prince Movie Review: Sivakarthikeyan and Anudeep’s madcap flick offers sporadic laughs

Director anudeep’s prince is a madcap comedy that relies on silliness. the slapstick comedy worked in some places, but fell flat in others, says our review..

Listen to Story

• Prince hit the theatres on October 21 ahead of Diwali.
• The comedy film is directed by Anudeep.
• Prince features Sivakarthikeyan, Sathyaraj and Maria Ryaboshapka.

Release Date: 21 Oct, 2022

Sivakarthikeyan started his career as a stand-up comedian and rose to prominence with his witty one-liners. Today, he is a bankable star in the Tamil industry, who has several hit films under his sleeve. When a star like Sivakarthikeyen joins hands with Telugu filmmaker Anudeep, who is known for his slapstick humour, you expect fireworks on screen. Did their film, Prince, offer that?

Anbu (Sivakarthikeyan) is being ostracized by the village for a ‘mistake.’ His father Ulaganathan (Sathyaraj) also agrees with the villagers and gets ready to disown his son. Now comes the flashback. Anbu, who is irregular as a school teacher, goes to school regularly because of a British woman, Jessica (Maria Ryaboshapka). She joins the institution as a teacher. He eventually falls in love with her. While he thinks his father will say yes to their marriage, he says no for a reason. Ulaganathan’s father died in the freedom fight against the Britishers. How will Anbu convince his father and his father-in-law forms the story.

Anudeep’s strength lies in slapstick humour. With the films he has directed, he has established his style of humour which rides on silliness. And Prince is no exception. The film establishes several silly moments and tries to milk humour out of them. Imagine an entire stretch of comedy, just a ‘bottle guard’ that the heroine, Jessica, asks.

Prince, however, offers only sporadic laughs. This madcap film makes you laugh out loud in places but also falls flat on its face several times. Not all one-liners and jokes landed well. The first half of Prince borrowed a lot of the audience’s time to take off. One can handpick moments from the film where the comedy worked. Be it the Anandraj police station scene or the climax stretch about humanity, you see Sivakarthikeyan in full form. Even Sathyaraj is exceptional as the quirky father. Their combination scenes, especially the scene where he’s asked the meaning of Gummuratappura, are funny.

Also, Prince is a self-aware film. The director and the actors make fun of themselves and their previous works and it’s done supportively. That said, the major grouse with Prince are the stretches where the comedy fails to evoke laughs.

Here's the trailer of Prince:

Sivakarthikeyan is in his prime form as Anbu in Prince. His expressions and one-liners are perfect for the situation. And we can literally see the real Sivakarthikeyan playing to his strength on screen. Sathyaraj, as a veteran, explores comedy to a large extent in this film. Maria did a fair job in her debut performance. The real surprise is Premgi Amaren who played the role of land-grabbing mafia head, Boopathy. The audiences are so used to seeing Premgi Amaren in a fun role and to see him playing a serious (to some extent) was a new experience altogether.

Thaman’s music, especially Bimbiiki Pilapi and Jessica, are picturised well by Manoj Paramahamsa. Extra points for Sivakarthikeyan and Maria’s energetic dance moves.

Prince is a madcap comedy that tries to make the audience laugh throughout its runtime. But, you get only occasional laughs in the latter half.

Prince Telugu Movie Review & Ratings | Hit or Flop?

Prince Telugu Movie Review:  Sivakarthikeyan previous movies ‘Doctor’ & ‘College Don’ released in Telugu without any expectations but became blockbusters that fetched profits to the producers and distributors. After this successful movies, he joined hands with Telugu director Anudeep of ‘Jaathiratnalu’ fame. Sivekarthikeyan played lead role in the movie ‘Prince’ directed by Anudeep that released in theatres today. Let’s get into the detailed review of this movie to know, if the comedy timing of Sivakarthikeya match with the comedy scenes written by Anudeep and to know if this duo have created the laugh riot in the theatres.

Bigg Boss 7 Telugu Vote

Anand is a teacher at a local school. He falls in love with a young British woman Jessica who works at the same school as an English teacher. He tries to win her over, which causes problems that come crashing down on them as they face the biggest battle of their lives: deciding whether or not to get married. Rest of the story is all about the struggles Anand has to face to get his love.

Cast & Crew

Prince movie cast includes Sivakarthikeyan, Maria Riaboshapka, Sathyaraj, Premgi Amaren, Anandraj and others. This movie is written & directed by Anudeep KV and produced by Suniel Narang, D Suresh Babu, Puskur Ram Mohan Rao. Music is composed by Thaman S and cinematography is handled by Manoj Paramahamsa.

Movie Verdict

Prince is a movie that should be watched with zero logics and with zero expectations. This movie neither has a strong story nor a conflict point that could connect with the audience in any way. Most of the scenes are filled with humor, but that alone won’t work in theatres, as audiences get exhausted with similar one liners from the start of the movie. Few love scenes in the first half were well written and executed with some fun added to it, but the conflict created regarding the love story and the scenes that follow later look very silly that makes you scratch your heads. With few comedy scenes that make us laugh, this movie ends without leaving any impact.

While it comes to acting, Sivakarthikeyan is very entertaining as usual and tried his best to pull off the movie on his shoulders with his comedy timing. Many scenes in the movie look silly, but Sivakarthikeya managed to cover those scenes with his acting skills. Maria Riaboshapka looks very beautiful on screen and gave a decent performance. It is fun to watch her dance for Indian mass numbers in the songs. Satyaraj was good to some extent, but looks over the top in few scenes. Premgi Amaren is okay and all other actors did their part as required for the story.

Technically Prince movie looks average. Songs composed by Thaman are not up to the mark, except ‘Jessica’ song. Even the background music is very loud in many scenes. Manoj Paramahamsa is one of the finest cinematographers in India, but the visually Prince is not that good and most of the frames are filled with overly bright colors. Editing of the movie could have been taken care of. Production values are good.

Director Anudeep KV was successful with his movie ‘Jathiratnalu’ as the comedy worked out in theatres, but it failed terribly when premiered on TV and many people bashed the movie for it’s brainless comedy scenes. He once again tried to entertain the audience with same type of comedy and we have to see how will audience react to the movie in theatres this time.

Overall, Prince is only watchable for few comedy scenes & lacks in story and other departments.

Plus Points:

• Few Comedy Scenes
• Sivakarthikeya

Minus Points:

• Unnecessary comedy

Prince Review – Nonsense Comedy

OUR RATING 2/5

CENSOR U, 2h 23m

What happens when a usually open-minded Viswanadham rejects his son’s love is the core plot of Prince. The movie’s overall story is about how Anand, aka Prince, changes the rigid mindsets of the people around him and the village. Performances Prince is the kind of movie that allows Sivakarthikeyan to play it to his strength and the galleries. He does well on both counts in his usual style. There are no big emotional moments like his previous flick in Prince. It is all entertainment, and he delivers it in abundance. It is aimed at his fans, and there is a star quality to it which might have a little less appeal to those not used to it.

Maria playing a British girl is a poor choice. She is expressionless. Even when so much is happening around Maria, she is clueless. No wonder, despite such obvious presence character-wise, she fails to register and is relegated to the back seat.

Analysis Anudeep KV of Jathi Ratnalu fame directs Prince. Like his previous film, Prince too, has a wafer-thin plot. It relies heavily on comedy to pull through the narrative.

The beginning of the movie sets the tone for what lies ahead. It also shows the potential issues that are possible with the narrative. The first thing that registers is the dialogue; there is a lot of talk by multiple characters and in between them. The second thing is weak characters.

Take Sathyaraj’s character, for example. He is a serious guy with respect to his views and worldviews, in general. But his action and words are all for comedy’s sake. It is the same with others as well, which never lets one connect or relate with the roles.

There is an undercurrent romance and drama in the story. But, again, the comedy overrides all the emotions. It is all about the writing and the gags pretty soon. Some of them work in the first half, for sure. The sequences where English names of vegetables are brought up is one among them.

The problem in Prince is since it uses gags for narrative, they run out of punches pretty soon. They progressively become sillier and don’t evoke a laugh.

After a decent interval block, one expected things to turn a bit dramatic, but verbal diarrhoea continued. There is more silly comedy in the second half. Unfortunately, most of it falls flat and has an outdated vibe.

The characters come together and talk and talk and talk. And that’s what the narrative is until the end. The resolutions to the minor conflicts are also dealt with humour with little emotion.

Whether good or bad, director Anudeep KV’s mark is all over. It strongly reminds one of his previous blockbuster flick writing-wise. The issue here is the artificial milieu and setting. The lack of rootedness is the biggest culprit.

The village backdrop seems to be chosen to have organic free flowing, rooted conversations. But in Prince, we have routine commercial movie characters inhabiting the space. They then do all formulaic things possible but keep the words earthy and rooted. It is this lack of sync which never allows us to be engaged with the proceedings. One just laughs at the few gags and then forgets them.

Overall, Prince is a routine commercial fare filled with Jathi Ratnalu kind of comedy. Sadly, it doesn’t work the intended way and leaves one frustrated. Even if one is okay with the silliest and outdated humour, the second half is bound to disappoint.

Music and Other Departments? S Thaman’s music is decent and goes well with the ‘commercial’ aspect of the whole narrative. The songs are timed and shot well. The background score, too, is decent. 

Manoj Paramahamsa’s cinematography lends a visually rich palette to the movie even though it’s set in a village background. The artwork is good, and the production values are moderately adequate. The editing should have been much better. A day before the release, twelve minutes were trimmed. Looking at the film, well, all we can say is there is more scope in that regard. The dialogues are many and come non-stop, but only a few impress.

Highlights? Few Comedy Blocks First Half, In Parts Decent Production Values

Drawbacks? Outdated Comedy Non-Stop Cringe Dialogues Flimsy Story No Connect With Characters

Will You Recommend It? No

Prince Telugu Movie Review by M9News

Final Report:

The second half, too, runs on a formulaic narrative with back-to-back gags. Many of them miss the mark as it’s Jathi Ratnalu meets Jabardasth comedy without the unique characterisations of the former. Nothing looks organic. Full review coming shortly.

— Prince second half started. The local guy falling in love with British girl brings more issues to the village.

First Half Report:

Prince is a regular entertainer stuffed with a comedy of Jabardasth bits. Some punches work, and there are a lot of cringes as well. Everything depends on the second half now to see where Prince ends.

— Anand works as teacher. He falls in love with Jessica, his colleague who is a foreigner.

— Prince show started. Anand (Sivakarthikeyan) is being exiled from his village. His father Viswanadham (Satyaraj) is a social activist and a good hearted person in the village.

Tamil hero Sivakarthikeyan’s Telugu-Tamil bilingual project, Prince under the direction of Anudeep KV had a theatrical release today. Let’s see how it fares.

Story: Anand( Sivakarthikeyan) a school teacher falls for his colleague Jessica ( Maria Riaboshapka) a foreigner at the first sight. After repeated trials, Anand impresses Jessica but their love will not get acceptance by Anand’s father Vishwanath( Sathyaraj). Why Vishwanath is against his son’s love? Is there any backstory behind it? How is Anand’s love interlinking with a village problem, forms the crucial crux.

Performances: Sivakarthikeyan who is known as a good actor delivers a good performance yet again in the movie. His comic timing and funny one-liners bring an instant smile on the audience face.

Foreign beauty Maria Riaboshapka is lovable and her chemistry with Sivakarthikeyan adds a fresh vibe to the proceedings. Coming to the facial expressions, Maria should focus on this aspect in further films.

Sathyaraj gets a purposeful role as the hero’s father. His comic timing and entertaining character bring depth to the proceedings to an extent. Premji and Anandraj are okay in their respective roles. Actor Kollywood actor Soori is not utilized properly. Other artists are fine in their respective roles.

Technicalities: Music by Thaman is okay but is definitely not up to his standards. Expect for a couple of songs and impressive background score few scenes, Thaman’s music falls flat.

The cinematography work by Manoj Paramahamsa is superb as presented the entire film on a colourful note. Editing by Praveen KL is okay.

Production values for this star-studded movie are good.

Analysis: Director Anudeep KV who impressed everyone with the last year’s released comedy-caper Jathi Ratnalu failed to repeat the same magic with Prince.

Though Sivakarthikeyan gave his best and tried to elevate a few scenes with his screen presence, the lack of strong emotions and an engaging screenplay dilutes the mood of the audience. To summerize, Prince is a village love drama that has a simple storyline. Even the screenplay and narrative has cliches making the film a disappointing watch.

Verdict: Anudeep disappoints!

Rating: 2.5/5

Prince review: Sivakarthikeyan is entertaining but deserves a better debut in Telugu

Director Anudeep KV disappoints as ‘Prince’ lacks the excitement and curiosity needed for a movie to keep the viewers engaged.

Published:Oct 21, 2022

Sivakarthikeyan deserves a better debut in Telugu than 'Prince'. (@Siva_Kartikeyan/Twitter)

Not an exciting watch!

Prince (Telugu)

• Cast: Sivakarthikeyan, Maria Ryaboshapka, Sathyaraj and Premgi Amaren
• Director: Anudeep KV
• Producers: Suniel Narang, Suresh Babu D and Pushkar Ram Mohan Rao
• Music: S Thaman
• Runtime: 2 hours 23 minutes
• Cast: Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, Emraan Hashmi, and Revathy
• Director: Maneesh Sharma
• Producer: Aditya Chopra
• Music: Pritam Chakraborty
• Runtime: 2 hours 35 minutes

A Tamil-Telugu bilingual film, Prince starts with people in Devankottai village talking about Anand (Sivakarthikeyan) who is asked to leave the place. Anand starts narrating the story behind the incident.

Anand is a secondary school teacher who falls in love with his colleague Jessica (Maria), a British woman. His father Viswanath (Sathyaraj) is against endogamy and encourages his children to marry whomever they like – irrespective of caste, creed and religion.

However, Jessica’s father doesn’t like her association with Anand. Soon things start going wrong in the village and the locals ask Anand to leave the place.

What’s the reason behind their decision? Is Jessica’s father to be blamed or are the villagers have any role to play in this? Watch the movie to find the answers.

Entertaining in bits and pieces

Sivakarthikeyan’s Prince is a laughter riot. The first half is entertaining enough in some parts. Nevertheless, the second half is a bit boring; the main plot begins here though.

The film showcases Anand’s ordeal – convincing his father who doesn’t approve of his love upon learning that Jessica is British.

Sivakarthikeyan is an excellent performer. With every film, he proves that he is excelling in the art.

In Prince too, he did a great job as Anand. He is the reason why the movie got so much weightage. In fact, he is the only person who keeps tickling our funny bones.

Sathyaraj is quite entertaining in the film and demonstrates that he is a versatile actor.

Maria bagged a meaty role for her debut and did a decent job. Premgi pulled off his role with ease.

Director fails to meet expectations

In 2001, director Anudeep succeeded in making the audience laugh with Jathi Ratnalu starring Naveen Polishetty, Priyadarshi and Rahul Ramakrishna.

It’s natural for the viewers to expect the same kind of comedy and entertainment in Prince , too. But unfortunately, the flick doesn’t live up to their expectations.

It is entertaining in bits and pieces. There are times when you want to leave the theatre and take a break from the bad narration.

The dialogues are well-written. Anudeep managed to get them written in his style. The screenplay is good and so are the ways those dialogues are delivered with performance.

The colour tone and camera frames, visuals and beauty of the locations have been captured well by cinematographer Manoj Paramahamsa. Music by Thaman is good to a certain extent.

#Prince is all yours now ?? Director @anudeepfilm ’s style of humour wil make you happy in this festive season ❤️ Enjoy this light hearted, simple yet fun film in cinemas with ur friends and family ?? #PrinceFromToday ? #PrinceDiwali ? pic.twitter.com/mriJdjDx3r — Sivakarthikeyan (@Siva_Kartikeyan) October 20, 2022

Interesting concept but poor execution

The expectations were really high since the day Prince was announced, especially since it’s Anudeep’s directorial. But it turned out to be a box office dud this festive season because the viewers have watched scores of movies with a similar storyline.

Prince , apparently, lacks the excitement the curiosity needed for a film to make the viewers sit through and watch. Few scenes appear to have been forcibly inserted, though they make you laugh.

The concept of the film is interesting but the way it has been executed and presented is certainly not.

When you have a hero like Sivakarthikeyan on board, it is important to keep his market and range in mind. But seems like Anudeep wrote a story without keeping all this in mind.

It would have been a lot better if he came up with a better story for Sivakarthikeyan to tell. It’s definitely not an exciting watch!

Sivakarthikeyan and Maria Ryaboshapka starrer Prince hit the screens today. It is directed by Anudeep KV. Let’s check out the review:

In the opening of the movie whole village boycotts Anand (Sivakarthikeyan) for a mistake he made. Viswanadham (Sivakarthikeyan’s father) also agrees with the villagers and gets ready to disown his son. Then opens the flashback of Anand, who is irregular as a schoolteacher. He finds himself falling in love with a British woman, Jessica (Maria Ryaboshapka) who is teaching English at the same school. While he thinks his father will say yes to their marriage, he says no for a reason. How Anand won the heart of Jessica and how he changed his father’s mind forms the rest of the story.

On-screen performances:

Father and son duo Sivakarthikeyan and Sathyaraj steal the show with their stellar performance. Their combination scenes are funny. Yet Maria is very gorgeous onscreen. She has very less scope to perform because of her un-lengthy characterization. Premgi Amaren’s character is sure to surprise the audience. Rest of the characters are just fillers.

Off-screen talents:

S. Thaman with two chartbusters – Bimbiiki Pilapi and Jessica – delivered the needed background music for the film. Cinematographer Manoj Paramahamsa did a fabulous job by presenting the best visuals. He picturized everything well. Anudeep as writer tried to stretch a silly line in his own formulatic way but falls apart. He established several silly moments and tried to extract humour out of them.

Plus Points:

• Sivakarthikeyan’s Performance
• Climax Episode

Minus Points:

• Silly Storyline
• Unfunny dialogues in many parts

Verdict: Prince is a madcap comedy that relies on silliness. However, it has an important message at its core. The comedy cooked by Anudeep worked in some places, but fell flat in others. The audience expected that a lot more jokes would have worked on the screen as it is an Anudeep film. However, the director disappointed them in a big way. So, think before you watch this movie.

Prince Movie Review & Rating!

Date : October 21, 2022

Starring : Sivakarthikeyan, Maria, Sathyaraj etc..

Director : Anudeep

Music Director : Taman

Cinematography : Manoj Paramahamsa

Producer : Sunil Narang – Suresh Babu – Puskur Rammohan Rao

Banner : Srivenkateswara Cinemas – Suresh Productions

Rating: 2.5/5

“Prince” is the latest film directed by director Anudeep KV, who gained tremendous popularity with the film “ Jathi Ratnalu “. Even though this Tamil movie starring Sivakarthikeyan in the title role is being promoted as a Telugu Bilingual, it looks like a Tamil dubbed movie. And let’s see how this comedy entertainer impressed the audience..!!

Story : In fact, there is nothing to say about this story, this is the story, this is the twist in the movie. Anand (Sivakarthikeyan) is adored by the whole village. It is noteworthy that his father Viswanadham (Satyaraj) also agrees to that. What is the real story of Anand? Why was he exposed? is the story of “Prince”.

Performance of Actors:  In any movie, the chemistry of the hero-heroines works well. But the chemistry of Sivakarthikeyan & Sathyaraj worked brilliantly in this film. Their combination comedy is amazing. Maria impressed with her beauty-acting. Prem ji & other Tamil actors impressed.

TECHNOLOGY PERFORMANCE:  It is not common to make a film without a story, without a story to work with. Anudeep KV did this feat for the second time and felt no problem. Anudeep, who used Sivakarthikeyan’s work as an actor to the fullest, falters a bit when it comes to comedy punch dialogues.

Hence the comedy is not fully mature. The way the climax episode is convincing is good. Thaman elevates the film with his music. Cinematography, production design & art work are good.

Analysis :  If you can enjoy the logic, the story-telling, punchy dialogues and senseless comedy, you will enjoy “Prince”. Otherwise, it’s a bit difficult to enjoy this slapstick comedy.

Prince Movie Review & Ratings | Hit or Flop?

Prince Movie Review : The Telugu versions of Sivakarthikeyan’s previous movies, “Doctor” and “College Don,” did better than expected at the box office. After making these successful movies, he worked with Anudeep, who made the movie “Jaathiratnalu.” The new movie “Prince,” which stars Sivekarthikeyan and was directed by Anudeep, just came out. Let’s take a closer look at this movie to see if Sivakarthikeya’s comedic timing works with the funny parts that Anudeep wrote and if the two of them were able to make people laugh out loud in the theatre.

Table of Contents

Anand is a teacher at a school in the area. He falls in love with Jessica, a young English woman who works at the same school as him as an English teacher. As they decide whether or not to get married, the most important choice of their lives, problems come up because he tries to win her over. The rest of the story is about Anand’s attempts to win over the woman he loves.

Cast & Crew

The cast of the Prince film includes Sivakarthikeyan, Maria Riaboshapka, Sathyaraj, Premgi Amaren, Anandraj, and more performers. Suniel Narang, D Suresh Babu, and Puskur Ram Mohan Rao produced the film, which was written and directed by Anudeep KV. The cinematography is handled by Manoj Paramahamsa, and the music is handled by Thaman S.

Movie Verdict

While seeing the movie Prince, you shouldn’t think about it or have any expectations. This movie doesn’t have an interesting plot or a conflict that could keep people interested in any way. Most of the funny parts aren’t enough to keep people in the theatres, though, because by the end of the movie, they’ll be sick of hearing the same one-liners.

Some of the love scenes in the first half were well-written, well-done, and even funny, but the conflict created by the love story and the scenes that follow it make no sense. There aren’t many funny parts, and the ending doesn’t leave much of an impression.

Sivakarthikeyan is just as funny as ever when it comes to acting, and he did his best to carry the movie on his shoulders with his funny timing. There are some strange parts in the movie, but Sivakarthikeya’s acting skills help him hide them. Maria Riaboshapka’s performance was fine, and she looked beautiful on TV. The Indian mass numbers in the songs are fun to watch her dance to. Satyaraj had some skills, but sometimes he seemed too good to be true. Premgi Amaren is fine, and the other actors all did a good job with their parts.

Prince’s music seems to have good technical quality. With the exception of “Jessica,” none of Thaman’s songs are very good. In several scenes, the background music is also very loud. Even though Manoj Paramahamsa is one of India’s best cinematographers, Prince doesn’t look good, and most of the frames have too much colour. The editing of the movie might have been done by someone else. Excellent quality of work.

Jathiratnalu, which was directed by Anudeep KV, did well at the box office because it was funny, but it bombed on TV and got a lot of bad reviews for being too funny. He tried to make people laugh again with the same kind of humour. We’ll have to wait and see how people react to the movie this time.

Overall, Prince is just funny in a few spots, but the story and other parts are weak.

Plus Points:

• Few Comedy Scenes
• Sivakarthikeya

Minus Points:

• Unnecessary comedy

Rating: 2.75/5

Bade Miyan Chote Miyan Overseas Review Ratings: Akshay’s Film Gets Mixed Response But Prithviraj Steals Show

Bade Miyan Chote Miyan Overseas Review Ratings: Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff's first collaboration Bade Miyan Chote Miyan has been creating ripples in the industry ever since it was announced. Helmed by Ali Abbas Zafar, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan has been an action entertainer that marks Akshay's first collaboration with Tiger. Also starring Alaya F, Prithviraj Sukumaran and Manushi Chillar in the lead, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan has been one of the most anticipated Eid releases.

Needless to say, the teaser, trailer and even the songs, everything about Bade Miyan Chote Miyan (BMCM) has left the audience intrigued. As fans have been waiting to watch Akshay and Tiger's bromance, there was a recent change in the release plan as Bade Miyan Chote Miyan release was pushed to April 11 in India owing to the moon sighting. However, the action entertainer has been released today (April 10) in abroad and the social media is abuzz with tweets about this Ali Abbas Zafar directorial.

Taking to the micro-blogging site Twitter, a user wrote, "#ThreeWordReview Blockbuster Action+Comedy Thriller.#BadeMiyanChoteMiyan takes you into a new world - one upmanship in friendship, jabardast action, sharp funny one-liners, larger than life villain, fast paced story telling, Brilliant interval and climax. @aliabbaszafar has given a gem of a film that can be enjoyed with family. #AkshayKumar is in a funny but serious role that means business. His dialogues bring the hall down, and action creates the wow factor. #TigerShroff is funny and brings enormous energy. #PrithvirajSukumaran is a surprise of the film and his character brings the villain back to cinema. Action is of high calibre. It's well choreographed and enhanced by VFX when required. #BMCM is definitely better film of the genre compared to recent films."

On the other hand, another user tweeted, "#BadeMiyanChoteMiyan Passable 1st Half! Pretty standard template action film so far with a few decent action blocks. Doesn't have a much of a new story yet but gets interesting from the pre-interval. #BMCM". One of the users even gave the movie 2.5 stars.

Akki - Tiger chemistry was good with funny banter between them. Hera Pheri reference & Helicopter stunt were a treat for fans....Prithviraj makes a smashing villain....but AAZ forgot to include JAAN in this film, which he had in Sultan & TZH — Prince Prithvi (@PrincePrithvi) April 10, 2024

To note, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan will be witnessing a box office clash with Ajay Devgn's sport drama Maidaan and the Akshay starrer has already thrashed the latter in terms of advance booking. It will be interesting to see if Bade Miyan Chote Miyan will be able to beat Maidaan at the box office post release. Meanwhile, talking about the clash, Ajay stated, "First of all I won't call it a clash. If you are calling it a clash, then in your language I wouldn't want two films to release at the same time. However, there are certain obligations due to which the films are to be released". It will be interesting to see if Bade Miyan Chote Miyan will be able to beat Maidaan at the box office post release.

Scoop review: Is Netflix's Prince Andrew movie worth a watch?

The movie stars Billie Piper, Gillian Anderson and Rufus Sewell.

Five years ago, Prince Andrew mindlessly shot himself in the foot with a highly publicised interview, followed by a social-media frenzy and irreparable consequences for his already shaky reputation.

It was also one of the most unbelievably hilarious TV moments of our time, as The Queen's favourite son opened up about going to Pizza Express in Woking, his inability to sweat and how ending relationships over the phone was the "chicken's way."

Starring Billie Piper , Gillian Anderson , Rufus Sewell and Keeley Hawes , the movie focuses more on the journalists that made it happen rather than answering any lingering questions viewers might have about the prince's controversial former friendship with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Scoop starts in New York back in 2010, when a photographer (played by Sex Education star Connor Swindells ) snatches a photo of Prince Andrew (Sewell) and Jeffrey Epstein walking together through Central Park.

Nine years later, that photo comes back to haunt the British royal after Epstein's crimes hit the headlines again and their relationship is called into question. Silence seems the wisest answer, but Newsnight producer Sam McAlister (Piper) manages to put her foot in the door before anybody else and suggests the idea of an interview.

The movie, directed by Philip Martin ( The Crown ), frames this journalistic accomplishment in the midst of the BBC's job cuts announcement and a sense of uncertainty for the profession as a whole. It's about how essential journalistic work is in order to hold powerful people accountable.

As the central character in the story, Billie Piper embodies McAlister's passion and brilliant intuition, which were key to securing the exclusive interview.

The emotional arc in this story comes from her feeling like an outsider in the workplace, with her colleagues deeming her "too Daily Mirror" for the BBC and her booking work considered less than their journalistic work.

By making her the protagonist, Scoop finds a heart among the mostly matter-of-fact narration, and an element of surprise within a story that many viewers will remember pretty clearly. After all, it was only five years ago!

Rufus Sewell's astounding transformation into Prince Andrew is a standout too, but don't expect any new revelations about the prince. The movie is not scratching much under that surface, instead delivering a couple of painful punches about his childish personality.

Sewell's face-off with Gillian Anderson's Emily Maitlis is, as expected, the highlight of the movie, despite the efforts to make the rest of the story as interesting as this anticipated recreation of the interview.

The scene is shot at times like a spaghetti western, framing Maitlis' intense eyes as she is about to pull out her big guns (questions) and relishing in the heavy silences in the room.

"An hour of television can change everything," says Piper's Sam at one point in the film. In this pivotal scene, we can feel the heaviness of that statement. It was a history-making moment, and it feels like it on screen.

Despite lacking the same ambition shown by the BBC journalists involved in this story, Scoop is a good enough recount of what happened and an opportunity to give credit where credit is due. It won't tell you anything new that you probably didn't know, but it's a heartfelt love letter to those journalists still fighting in the trenches of an unfairly precarious profession.

Scoop is now available to watch on Netflix.

Scoop, review: Rufus Sewell is a revelation as Prince Andrew in Netflix drama

With Gillian Anderson also excellent as Emily Maitlis, you clamp hand to mouth, aghast at how this Newsnight trainwreck actually happened

To have been a fly on that wall. Two chairs, six feet apart, in the south drawing room of Buckingham Palace. “Like a western!”, marvels Emily Maitlis (Gillian Anderson) before swooping in, armed with her trusty Bic, a notepad on her knees, and that coiled precision, never more lethal or exacting. Whatever rounds Prince Andrew ( Rufus Sewell ) thinks he’s firing off seem to ricochet and lodge, for ever, in the very folds of his neck.

Newsnight wanted to put the Duke of York in the hot seat. Little did they know that burbling about his incapacity to sweat would prove such a grisly own goal. How on earth was it allowed to happen? It’s this question that Scoop dramatises with forensic rigour, courtesy of a wickedly astute script by Peter Moffat.

It all started with a picture. Detailed in a snappy 2010 prologue that actually makes tabloid photojournalism exciting, this showed the Prince papped next to Jeffrey Epstein in Central Park, when the latter was already a convicted sex offender. The taint wouldn’t go away, for all the efforts of Andrew’s private secretary Amanda Thirsk (Keeley Hawes – careworn, mumsy, deluded) to clean up his image. For this reason, she arranged a call, then a cocktail, with the Newsnight booker Sam McAlister (Billie Piper), and the wheels were set in motion for the Prince to have his say.

Scoop makes that coup feel momentous for the BBC, facing budget cuts and unending scrutiny about mattering. This certainly did matter: it’s not as though there’s a prime-time slot reserved annually for grilling a royal about purported sex crimes. Maitlis, with the pressure on, was told to go for the jugular, give him nowhere to hide. Here she listens to McAlister’s advice instead – to guide him into the subject ever so gently, then give him enough rope to hang himself.

For all the sensation their interview would cause, this re-enactment grips consistently as a revolving study in personalities – and not just theirs. A watchful, wary Romola Garai is not messing around as the programme’s editor, Esme Wren. Our real hero, though, is Piper’s McAlister – a single mum with a reputation for rocking up late, taking long lunches, and not having much to show for them. She’s a veteran schmoozer who feels her groundwork is routinely undervalued, probably because she’s working-class.

We know that Anderson is a dab hand at upper-crust impersonations, and she doesn’t feel stretched as Maitlis – just casually inhabits her to a tee. Sewell must be the revelation. Aided rather than swamped by sagging-chin prosthetics, he desports himself with exactly the right degree of arrogant charm, exploring its limits brilliantly. 

When Andrew turns on a Palace maid for, of all things, misarranging his soft toys, you feel you’ve eavesdropped on the petulant princeling throwing an eternal wobbly inside.

It gains layers – and that’s what sets it apart from The Queen, The Crown, or any other Peter-Morgan-written project you might name. The presence of Princess Beatrice at her dad’s preliminary chat with Maitlis and McAlister made me want to back into my seat cushion like Homer Simpson into a hedge. Meanwhile, the pathetic spectacle of Andrew clambering out of his bath, to a phone exploding with grim news about what was just broadcast, might be the bleakest use of screen nudity in memory.

It’s no laughing matter, obviously, but aspects of the whole saga are still inescapably absurd, and maximally milked in a borderline-The-Thick-of-It fashion without going overboard. The director, Philip Martin, plays everything right to the cusp – where you clamp hand to mouth, aghast at remembering that this trainwreck actually happened, and irresistibly compelled to relive it.

Actress Sakshi Vaidya, who made her feature debut with Akhil Akkineni’s Agent, faced disappointment as the film didn’t fare well at the box office. Despite this setback, she secured a role alongside Mega Prince Varun Tej in Gandeevadhari Arjuna. However, luck didn’t favour her once again.

Now, she’s set to test her fortunes in Mollywood with her upcoming project titled Haal. The film stars Shane Nigam, renowned for his roles in Ishq, Kumbalangi Nights, and RDX.

Billed to be a musical love story, Haal will be directed by Prasanth Vijaykumar. Production is scheduled to begin in May, with plans for a release in multiple Indian languages, including Telugu. Nandagopan is on board as the composer for this JVJ Productions venture.
