Firstpost

Poorna Malavath's story is well documented. The film handles that with reverence and sensitivity.

Rated: 3.5/5

Rahul Desai

Film Companion

The soundscape is heightened, as one would expect from a movie based on climbing to the top. But timing the background score is far more important than the score itself.

Rated: 3/5

Saibal Chatterjee

NDTV

Poorna is a rare Hindi film that travels to the heart of rural landscape. Even rarer is the use of a smattering of Telugu in the dialogues, which, along with an effective musical score, augments the authenticity of the film's setting and soundscape.

Rated: 3/5

Priya's carefree spirit, stifled by convention, and Poorna's hard-earned courage, bolstered by Priya's sacrifice, elevate a standard-issue celebration of achievement and national glory into something tender, moving and actually inspiring.
