Reception

[edit]

Vinay Lokesh from The Times of India rated the film 2+12 out of 5 and wrote that "Pranayam is a film that begins as a romantic family drama, but turns into a thriller. However, not enough screen time has been dedicated to convince the audience of the growing bond between the couple and the transition of the storyline thereafter".[9] A Sharadhaa from Cinema Express gave the film the same rating and wrote that "The story starts on a romantic note but doesn’t quite satisfy with its supposed twist. The ending doesn’t quite match the build-up, and it falls flat".[10] Vinayak K.S. from Prajavani wrote that "When an unexpected twist appears in the couple's life, their ideas change, the relationship is tested. The screenplay could have been stronger at this stage".[11]
