Reception



Sunayana Suresh of The Times of India gave 3.5/5 stars and wrote "Aadi Lakshmi Puraana is a fun, romcom that does strike that familiar chord. The narrative works for those who like love stories, but a little taut storytelling could have ensured a seamlessly screenplay. Though, the clever subversion of a massy story into a romcom is laudable." Shyam Prasad S of Bangalore Mirror gave 3/5 stars and wrote "At two hours, Aadi Lakshmi does not burden your time and does not overwhelm you in any manner." Aravind Shwetha from The News Minute wrote "With its unique, contemporary content and essential entertaining elements, Aadi Lakshmi Purana is a fun watch." A. Sharadhaa from The New Indian Express gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote "Aadi Lakshmi Purana belongs to the director and makes for a total family entertainer that will cater to all kinds of audience."
