Reception

Critical response

A critic from The Times of India scored the film at 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "While Darshan has done justice to the role, Nikhita, who begins on a glamorous note stirs out a good performance. Venus Murthya's cinematography fails to impress".^[3] Shruti Indira Lakshminarayana from Rediff.com scored the film at 1.5 out of 5 stars and says "Om and Darshan have given entertaining films like Ayya and Kalasipalya. However, they disappoint with Prince. But then again you can't say they didn't warn you as their film posters read Prince… 'The stupid fellow'!".^[4] BSS from Deccan Herald wrote "if only for the chase in the climax. Using the thespians’ names and their cutouts are mere ruses. A ‘different’ revenge story whose origins are numerous and confusing, Prince is strictly for Darshan and Omprakash Rao fans".^[5] A critic from Bangalore Mirror wrote " If only the director had paid more attention to the nuances and intricacies. To sum up, an effort gone awry, a far cry from Rao’s previous work Huli, a technically-perfect flick".^[6]
