Trivia:
Son of late actor Sukumaran and actress Mallika Sukumaran, brother of Indrajith, and brother-in-law of actress Poornima Mohan

Did his schooling from Sainik School, Thiruvananthapuram and Bharathiya Vidya Bhavan School, Thiruvananthapuram. He also pursued his Bachelor's degree in Engineering/IT from the University of Tasmania, Australia.

While vacationing in Trivandrum, he was grabbed by director Renjith to act in Nandanam (2002). He was then flooded with other tempting film offers that Prithviraj, then in his second year in Engineering, decided to take a break from studies to concentrate on acting.

Director Fazil persuaded him to act in films; it was Fazil who showed the results of his screen test to Renjith, who directed him in 'Nandanam'.

Was asked to wear a beard in films because directors felt that it would make him look older.
Personal Quotes:
I'm a director's actor. If I am good in a film, the credit goes to the director.

In the cinema industry I wasn't all that close to other actors. I had excellent relationships only with the directors of my films. They are like my gurus. Actually, this is the case with many actors too. They are usually closer to their directors than with other stars.

Finally, I am doing something I like. I like the rush of adrenaline, the kick that acting gives me. I want to be an actor till I die.
