Taking to X-platform, a moviegoer noted that Hridayapoorvam mildly drifts from the classic Sathyan Anthikad formula, adapting to contemporary sensibilities while retaining the director’s trademark warmth and humour. They added that, despite some uneven pacing and occasional hints of “boomer energy,” Mohanlal carries the film with remarkable ease, making it an enjoyable watch for family audiences.
