Reception

Sunayana Suresh of The Times of India opined that "Puksatte Lifu Pursotte Illa may have a moment or two where the story might meander away, but if one chooses to ignore that this film definitely is a breath of fresh air and proves that content is eventually the king in cinema".^[2] A Sharadhaa from The New Indian Express wrote that "Pukksatte Lifu... definitely has a dynamic story to tell, and it is a must-watch film for every person to understand how common people become puppets in the hands of a corrupt system".^[3] Bobby Sing of Firstpost wrote that "Puksatte Lifu perfectly pays its respectable farewell to Vijay and so do we as viewers and his staunch fans".^[4] Vivek M. V. of Deccan Herald wrote that "'Puksatte Lifu' is filled with colourful characters backed by fine performers".^[5]
