## Critical response

[edit]

Partu film received mixed reviews from critics. Mihir Bhanage of The Times of India gave the film a rating of 2.5/5 and wrote "These veer the film away from its main focus and once that happens, there’s no getting back on track. The slow pace makes the acting efforts of the cast go in vain".[3] Ganesh Matkari of Pune Mirror wrote "It suddenly makes the film more palatable, a pleasant reminder that even when things are going wrong, there always exists a possibility for the happy ending we all deserve".[4] Soumitra Pote of Maharashtra Times gave the film 3 stars out of 5 and wrote "Overall, this fact is really shocking. But humanity is constantly glorified by this".[5] Gurav Chaitali of Loksatta wrote "This story of two ordinary families takes many turns in the course of time, but creates a unique vision of humanity".[6]
