The Times Of India: "Prassthanam manages to hold your interest in parts due to its fast paced developments. But it also suffers from the usual pitfalls like unwanted songs and just too many conflicts, happening all at once. In conclusion, Prassthanam is a tried and tested political potboiler with power, greed and emotions at its core."

Rating: 3 Stars out of 5. 

Gulf News: "Prassthanam' attempts to recapture the glory of the original 2010 film, but this bid for power is best left to struggle in silence."

Rating: 2 Stars out of 5.
