== Reception ==

=== Season 1 ===
Thadhagath Pathi writing for ''[[The Times of India]]'', stated that Parampara tries to depict the family factions with detailed and intense characters, with directors Krishna Vijay and Viswanath Arigela deserving credit for the same. No two characters show hate towards each other but everyone is aware of their true feelings, and that’s a win for this privileged family drama and rated 2.5 out of 5.{{fact|date=November 2025}}

=== Season 2 ===
Citing it as "a racier follow-up" Sangeetha Devi Dundoo of ''[[The Hindu]]'' wrote that "The twists and turns in ''Parampara'' are staple tropes of mainstreamcinema. A long-form series can lend itself to newer and more intriguing subplots rather than offering more of the same, predictable storylines".<ref>{{Cite news |last=Dundoo |first=Sangeetha Devi |date=2022-07-21 |title='Parampara Season 2' review |language=en-IN |work=[[The Hindu]] |url=https://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/reviews/parampara-season-2-review-a-racier-follow-up/article65666159.ece |access-date=2022-07-21 |issn=0971-751X |archive-date=21 July 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220721152040/https://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/reviews/parampara-season-2-review-a-racier-follow-up/article65666159.ece |url-status=live }}</ref>

Arvind V of ''[[Pinkvilla]]'' gave a rating of 2 out of 5 and praised the performances of Chandra and Sarathkumar.<ref>{{Cite web |last=V |first=Arvind |date=2022-07-21 |title=Parampara Season 2 Review |url=https://www.pinkvilla.com/entertainment/south/parampara-season-2-review-crime-drama-doesnt-hold-despite-family-emotions-and-neat-performances-1165125 |access-date=2022-07-21 |website=[[Pinkvilla]] |language=en}}</ref> Echoing the same, [[Mallemala Entertainments|''123Telugu'']] gave a rating of 2.75 out of 5 and stated: "Parampara S2 has scope for good drama and engaging screenplay but is brought down by uneven sequences. The writing needs to be blamed for making it underwhelming".<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-07-21 |title=Parampara S2 Telugu web series Review |url=https://www.123telugu.com/reviews/parampara-s2-telugu-web-series-review.html |access-date=2022-07-21 |website=[[Mallemala Entertainments|123Telugu]] |language=en |archive-date=21 July 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220721152040/https://www.123telugu.com/reviews/parampara-s2-telugu-web-series-review.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

Paul Nicodemus of ''[[The Times of India]]'' gave 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "Parampara Season 2 has swag, emotion and action but unnecessarily gets undone by overbearing ‘indebted’ rhetoric."<ref>{{Citation |title=Parampara Season 2 Review: With stellar performances, this crime drama begs for better writing |newspaper=The Times of India |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/web-series/reviews/telugu/parampara/season-2/seasonreview/93049063.cms |access-date=2023-01-11}}</ref>
