Reception

A critic from The Hindu wrote that "The humorous narrative of ‘Purusha Pretham’ packs a punch as it holds a mirror to the discrimination and red-tapism in the hierarchical police force and in society at large".[4] A critic from The Times of India wrote that "A surprising and refreshing movie, Purusha Pretham, shows the humour in the grim lives of people in various sections of society and in terrible situations in life".[5] A critic from The Indian Express wrote that "If Aavasavyuham was an arbit documentation of an amphibian hunt, Purusha Pretham, starring Darshana Rajendran and Prasanth Alexander, is an arbit documentation of a comedy of errors".[6][7][8][9][10][11]
