A comeback hit for Dileep 'Prince and Family' came as a refreshing comeback for Dileep, who had several underwhelming films recently.

The movie lends humor, drama, and heart to the film's storyline, making it a wholesome watch for all age groups. ETimes review for the film read, "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."
