Reception


Mahapurush received mixed reviews from critics, while it received mostly positive reviews from the audience.
Shiva Mukhiya from Online Khabar rated the film 2.5 out of 5, and mentioned: "Mahapurush tells the story of each audience. The actors have justified their characters and their dialogue delivery and acting is natural. Yet, the film has a few glitches in terms of cinematography. Sound and lighting arrangements look awkward sometimes. The film takes a long time to develop the story than it actually deserves, and the makers need to understand that modern audiences value compactness."
