Who is tianas prince

Naveen doesn't really want to be tied down in marriage - he wants money and freedom. Faciler looks into Naveen's future and promises Naveen green.

To Naveen, green refers to money. After making a deal with Facilier, Naveen was turned into a frog to 'hop from place to place', gaining him his 'green' and his freedom from responsibility, and Lawrence took his place. Naveen later came across Tiana , who he thought was a princess due to her attire, and asks her for help.

Naveen attempts to follow the story of the Frog Prince. Naveen believes a kiss from a princess will break the spell, and so he asks Tiana to kiss him. While Naveen is correct in how the curse is broken, Tiana is not a princess and so the spell backfires.

Due to the mixup, Naveen remains a frog and Tiana is turned into a frog as well. Naveen and Tiana are chased by Charlote's dog, Stella, and the pair ends up in the Bayou. Naveen explains to Tiana that he was turned into a frog by the shadow man. Tiana then tells him that she is not a princess but a waitress. After he marries Charlotte, the couple will purchase the mill that Tiana wants to convert to a restaurant. In return, Tiana will assist Naveen in leaving the Bayou.

While in the bayou, they meet an alligator named Louis. Louis takes Naveen and Tiana to a kind voodoo fairy godmother Mama Odie, who can help them become human again. Naveen and Tiana also meet Ray the firefly, who tells them the story of his love Evangeline. Naveen is soon captured by Frog Hunters but is saved by Ray. Afterwards, Naveen saves Tiana from the hunters. Naveen along with Tiana, Louis, and Ray settle down. While resting, Ray introduces the friends to Evangeline who turns out to be a star.

Ray sings a song about his love. During the song, Naveen begins to fall in love with Tiana. Naveen is then captured by shadow demons sent by Doctor Facilier. Thankfully, the demons are destroyed by Mama Odie. Odie convinces Naveen that all he needs in life is Tiana. Mama Odie then tells the friends that Naveen must indeed kiss a princess to break the spell, and the only available princess is the princess of Mardi Gras, Charlotte La Bouff.

Seeing that her father is king of Mardi Gras, Charlotte is Princess of Mardi Gras, and thus can break the spell as long as the festival is running. During the trip home, Naveen attempts to propose to Tiana, believing that he could work jobs in her restaurant. He discovers that if Tiana cannot buy the mill the next day, her dream of owning a restaurant will be impossible. Naveen decides against proposing, so that Tiana will be able to have the restaurant.

Naveen is then captured by Lawrence, as is blood is needed for a charm to turn Lawrence into Naveen, as part of Facilier's plot. Ray is able to rescue Naveen, and Naveen gives the amulet that Facilier is using to Ray.

After Lawrence is arrested when Charlotte discovers him, Naveen tries to kiss Charlotte, but before he can, Tiana arrives and confesses her feelings for Naveen.

She had come to the discovery while facing Facilier. Charlotte tries to help by kissing, so that they can be together, but it is too late. Guided by Louis, Naveen and Tiana head off through the bayous in search of her.

Along the way, they meet a romantic firefly named Ray , who explains they have been heading in the wrong direction due to Louis' incompetence and offers to light the way to the correct path. Though Naveen and Tiana constantly clash with one another through the trip, they are forced to work together when attacked by a trio of frog hunters.

By utilizing their individual strengths, the two manage to defeat the hunters - in during which, Tiana reveals that she can be fun and not just a "stick-in-the-mud.

Tiana and Naveen actually begin to realize their initial opinions on one another were not exactly on point, as the two begin to slowly open up to each other. Specifically, Naveen learns Tiana isn't as much of a "stick in the mud" as he assumed, whilst Tiana learns to have a little enjoyment out of life, despite difficult times, through Naveen's influence. Similarly, during a break from traveling, Naveen becomes comfortable enough to confess his true discontent with his lifestyle.

Because he has waited on hand and foot since childhood, he lacks basic skills - claiming servants would feed him, dress him, and even brush his teeth for him - and feels rather useless as a result. Tiana shows sympathy for the prince, and manages to teach him how to mince, granting him one of his first productive skills; much to his pride and joy at the same time.

Naveen also expresses amazement at Tiana's cooking skills — both her speed at mincing and the fact that she can make delicious food out of things she has only found in the bayou. After a while, Naveen begins to harbor romantic feelings for the girl, and vice versa, though Tiana fails to realize, and with the fact that Naveen must marry Charlotte, the two force themselves to ignore their feelings - Tiana seemingly more so than Naveen.

Ray, however, notices the blossoming feelings and makes an attempt to have them confess the truth during a romantic ballad he sings to his love, Evangeline, the evening star. Naveen translates Ray's French for Tiana, briefly causing her to believe that he is saying he loves her, given that he is translating literally ie "I adore you, I love you".

Shortly afterward, however, he then takes the time to teach Tiana how to dance, as a token of gratitude for teaching him how to mince. Though she is reluctant at first, she agrees and enjoys herself in the process. Naveen's feelings grow through the moment, as does Tiana, and the two nearly share a kiss, only to be stopped when Tiana 'comes to her senses' and reminds him that he is Charlotte's intended.

Immediately after, Naveen is attacked by a hoard of shadow demons sent by Dr. The shadows capture the frog prince, but they soon meet defeat at the hands of Mama Odie. She asks afterward who has been messing with Dr. Facilier, to which Louis points at Naveen, who then smiles sheepishly. The elderly and blind, but eccentric and wise, voodoo priestess takes the group to her home , where Tiana and Naveen struggle to ask for assistance.

Even so, Mama Odie is more than aware of what they want to be human but spends the time trying to explain their desires won't make them happy if they're just going to continue their lives as before.

Naveen realizes this when he sees Tiana dancing with Ray, but Tiana does not, thinking what Mama Odie means is that she needs to work even harder than before. Mama Odie helps Naveen realize that what he needs in life is love and that love would come from Tiana.

Mama Odie then tells the friends that Naveen must indeed kiss a princess to break the spell, and the only available princess is the princess of the Mardi Gras parade, Charlotte La Bouff. Seeing that her father is the king of the Mardi Gras parade, Charlotte is Princess of the Mardi Gras parade and thus can break the spell as long as the festival is running. During the trip home, Naveen attempts to propose to Tiana, believing that he could work jobs - possibly two or three - in order to pay for the cost of fixing up the mill into a restaurant.

He then discovers that if Tiana cannot buy the mill the next day, her dream of owning a restaurant will be impossible. Naveen decides against proposing so that Tiana will be able to have the restaurant by his marrying Charlotte. After leaving to round up Louis and Ray, Naveen is captured by Facilier's shadow demons and delivered to the evil doctor back in New Orleans. There, Lawrence takes some of his blood, thus refueling the talisman and conjuring the princely disguise, once again.

That night, during Mardi Gras, Charlotte and Lawrence's wedding is underway atop one of the parade floats. Also, on the float is a chest with an imprisoned Naveen. Ray manages to find the frog prince and frees him, allowing Naveen to attack Lawrence, which in turn puts a stop to the wedding before the marriage is complete.

In the midst of the scuffle, Ray obtains the talisman and flees the church with it. While Facilier pursues him, Lawrence is ordered to remain in hiding with Naveen in his grasp until the witch doctor returns.

During the wait, Ray hands the talisman over to Tiana telling her to keep it away from Facilier at all costs. Tiana and Facilier then engage in a confrontation, which ends in the destruction of the talisman. Tiana overhears him tell his friends on the other side that Naveen is still locked up before the witch doctor meets his demise.

With Facilier gone, Tiana looks for Naveen. Naveen, meanwhile, tries to make a deal with Charlotte, after once again, being squished by a book from her, promising marriage in exchange for paying all expenses necessary for Tiana to purchase her restaurant. Charlotte agrees, but before the two can kiss to break the spell, Tiana arrives. She pleads for Naveen to reconsider, but the prince refuses to revoke his offer, knowing that without it, Tiana's dream will never come true. Tiana, however, tells him that her restaurant is not as important as the love they share, confessing her feelings at last.

Pleasantly surprised, Naveen returns the affections and their love is proclaimed. Touched by the moment and happy that Tiana has found the fairy tale she has always dreamed of, Charlotte agrees to kiss Naveen for him and Tiana, no marriage required.

Unfortunately, the clock strikes twelve before she can and the frog curse supposedly becomes permanent. Charlotte apologizes, but Tiana and Naveen decide it does not matter whether they are frogs or humans. So long as they are together, they can be happy. Just then, a distressed Louis arrives on the scene, carrying a wounded Ray in his palms.

He explains Ray was fatally injured by Facilier during the battle. After bidding farewell, he peacefully passes away. Naveen, Tiana, and Louis attend the funeral held in the bayou with the rest of his firefly family members. After the service, the sky begins to shine brightly as Ray has ascended into the night sky, becoming a star alongside Evangeline - finally receiving his wish to someday join her side.

Following these events, Naveen and Tiana are married by Mama Odie in the bayous where Louis, the firefly family and many other bayous animals attend their wedding. Once they are pronounced frog and wife and share a kiss, they magically transform back into humans.

Their marriage officially made Tiana a princess and kissing a princess breaks the spell. The bayou celebrates their success and a second wedding is held in New Orleans to make it official in front of their families and friends.

After the wedding celebration, Naveen accompanies Tiana in successfully purchasing her restaurant with a little help from Louis. Together, the couple works to revamp the old rundown sugar mill, eventually transforming it into a beautiful, elegant establishment.

However, her father's picture called the restaurant Tiana's Place , but Tiana eventually decided to change it slightly, calling it Tiana's Palace. As hoped, Tiana's restaurant was a massive success. Louis lives out his dream of performing in front of a human audience as a renowned musician, and Naveen learns about working hard and enjoying life to the fullest at the same time while becoming an employee for Tiana, making both himself and his visiting family proud.

As the amazing evening carries on, Naveen and Tiana share a romantic dance under the stars as Ray and Evangeline watch over them. After the princesses save Wreck-It Ralph from plummeting to his doom, he is laid to rest in a style similar to Snow White. As a comical homage to "true love's kiss", Tiana brings forth Naveen to wake Ralph with a kiss.

When Ralph awakens, Naveen throws him a flirtatious glance. A dazed Ralph groggily thanks Naveen, mistaking him for Frogger from the arcade game of the same name. Naveen is then seen being held by Tiana for the remainder of the scene. In the Walt Disney Animation Studios ' YouTube video Drawing Naveen , the frog prince struggles to bring himself to animated perfection as a joking animator Randy Haycock constantly toys with his froggy appearance.

In promotion for the film, Naveen as a frog appeared in a GEICO commercial, asking the car insurance company's gecko mascot for help after he has been transformed into a frog by Facilier.

The gecko then advises him to find a princess to help break the curse. In anticipation for the 82nd Academy Awards, Naveen and Louis made an appearance in an online promotion, accepting the film's nomination with pride. Naveen briefly appears on TV in the short Us Again , when the old man is flipping through channels. Naveen appears during the second half of season 7 of the series, where he is portrayed by Jeff Pierre.

Naveen meets Tiana, Henry, and Cinderella on the day of Tiana's coronation. When the kingdom's subjects are under attack, he decides to join them. At first, Tiana does not trust Naveen, but later warms up to him. He tells her that ever since his brother died, it has been hard for him to rule Maldonia all by himself. Later, when the two of them are sitting in a boat in a swamp, an alligator attacks Naveen. Tiana saves him by throwing a spear at the gator.

Naveen is badly injured and nearly dies. Facilier appears and said that he lured Naveen to the Bayou to get a necklace out of the alligator. Tiana makes a deal with Facilier to save Naveen, but Facilier magically transports him to a place where she'll never find him.

In the Hyperion Heights neighborhood, Naveen appears under the cursed persona named Drew. He is a food truck vendor who knew Sabine in the past. During a food event, Sabine's food tuck is forced to close down since she does not have a permit. Sabine accuses Drew of stealing her permit because she believes he is afraid of the competition. Later, Drew apologizes to Sabine for everything that has happened and gives Sabine his permit, so she can reopen her food truck.

After Drew helps Sabine with making food for the residents of Hyperion Heights, it is then revealed that Drew has been working for Mr.

Samdi, the cursed counterpart of Dr. Facilier, and is only trying to make Sabine gain his trust as part of a plan. However, after the curse is broken, he breaks free from Samdi's control and reunites with Sabine. Naveen is the focus in the story revolving around Tiana's twentieth birthday. Here, the prince is having a difficult time figuring out the perfect gift for his bride, having searched far and wide through New Orleans to find such a present. However, at one point, he overhears Tiana and Charlotte conversing, and in during which, he hears how Tiana and her father used to go out into the bayous to find swamp amber which, according to Tiana, is more beautiful than any diamond or pearl.

With Louis' help, Naveen heads off to find the amber, asking Mama Odie if she knows the whereabouts. However, he is told he needs to complete the task on his own and heads into the bayous to search himself. Together, the prince and Louis soon find a spot to search, and Naveen dives in after the amber, soon tangling himself in tree roots trying to retrieve it, nearly drowning before being rescued by Tiana. Once saved, Naveen bestows the gift, much to Tiana's delight, and the couple returns to Tiana's Palace for the birthday celebration.

There, they encounter a visiting Mama Odie, who takes the amber whilst the royal couple washes themselves, transforming it into a beautiful piece of jewelry, perfect for Naveen's gift for Tiana's special day. With the swamp amber placed into a necklace around Tiana's neck, the prince and his princess dance the rest of the lovely evening away. In Something Old, Something New , Naveen plays a small role in the story of how his and Tiana's wedding came to be, in which he and Louis worked together to organize the music of the festivities.

First appearance of Naveen's parents. Naveen appears in the game as a meet-and-greet character in New Orleans Square. As a gift for the player, Naveen provides a baton. Later on, Naveen gives the player a few tasks, including seeing if they can ask the Jambalaya Jazz Band to play at Tiana's Palace since Louis is away at a gator family reunion, and finding his lost sheet music.

Naveen also makes an appearance during the Mickey's Soundsational Parade mini-game, where Tiana kisses him while in his frog form, turning him back into a human. At one point, Naveen decides to surprise Tiana by decorating Tiana's Palace even further. To do so, he asks the player to collect several things including magnolia blossoms, flowers, and pictures of classic New Orleans. Soon after, Naveen plans on impressing Tiana by making her a native Maldonian dish.
