Critical response Parmanu received mixed reviews from film critics. Bollywood Hungama rated the film 3.5 / 5 and predicted its financial success. The Times of India rated it 3.5 / 5 and wrote `` What Parmanu lacks in detail and authenticity, it makes up with emotions and a sense of national pride. The narrative is n't explosive but it does have the dramatic moments to keep the viewer engaged. Thrills, suspense, drama, a little bit of humour, as well as a solid comment on India 's soldiers -- this movie, largely has all the tricks to please even a discerning audience. '' Rohit Vats from Hindustan Times rated the film 3 / 5 and wrote `` Actually, the best moments of Parmanu arrive towards the end, just when they are needed. A film that was slowly progressing towards a definite end in the first half starts to gather steam 20 minutes into the second half. '' The film was criticised by some reviewers. Shrishti Negi of News18 criticised over-dramatisation and twisting of facts, rating it 2 / 5. The opening sequence was also critised, being called `` too shaky ''. Kennith Rosario of The Hindu felt the film was `` simplistic '' and had `` all the ingredients to be a propaganda film ''. He even added that there is `` nationalistic jingoism '' at the core of the film which hailed the achievements of Vajpayee government. Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express criticised the film for its lack of details and use of historical facts, calling it `` all surface, no depth '', and gave it 1.5 stars. Deccan Chronicle also gave it 1.5 stars out of 5 in its review by Arnab Banerjee, saying that the seriousness of the film did n't come across as it looked like a `` picnic with a little bit of work thrown in here and there ''.
