Reception

A critic from Cinestaan wrote that "The Gujarati feature will appeal to the older generation who will see themselves in Manu; the emotional family drama is Rawal’s show all the way".[6] Subhash K. Jha from Firstpost wrote that "Dear Father has numerous faults. Its moral tone is distracting in its flexibility; we are supposed to dislike the father. But then we are supposed to like him for the same qualities which made him despicable in the first place".[7]
