2.25/5. Good Performance #Anupuma #Darshana. Unique women-centric storyline.

Good setup in the first half. Weak execution & slow narration. Second half drags. Verdict: Promising idea, but falls short. #PradhaReview.”Others found it emotionally resonant. “Watched the movie last night #Paradha is an honest attempt that strikes hard with its theme of women empowerment Review: 1st half – impactful & gripping 2nd half – slight lag in places but keeps you invested Climax – powerful & unforgettable.”Another summed it up: “Impactful Journey Rating = 2.90/5. An Emotional Tale of Women Fighting Blind Beliefs Still an absolute good watch!”With its OTT release, 'Paradha' may finally find the wider audience it was always meant for.
