== Reception ==<br />
A critic from ''[[Indo-Asian News Service]]'' wrote that "''Puthra'' is an ordinary film despite a good story and neat performances from the two lead male actors".<ref>{{cite web |date=16 October 2011 |title=Review: Kannada film Puthra |url=https://www.ndtv.com/entertainment/review-kannada-film-puthra-602085 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231016053214/https://www.ndtv.com/entertainment/review-kannada-film-puthra-602085 |archive-date=16 October 2023 |access-date=16 October 2023 |website=[[Indo-Asian News Service]]|via=[[NDTV]]}}</ref> A critic from ''[[Bangalore Mirror]]'' wrote that "Diganthh finally has a good film to his credit that had not originated from the Yograj Bhat camp. ''Putra'' is directed by veteran V Umakanth who manages to extract good performances from at least half-a-dozen actors".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://bangaloremirror.indiatimes.com/entertainment/reviews/putra-familial-plot/articleshow/21500150.cms|title=Putra:Familial plot|work=[[Bangalore Mirror]]|date=14 October 2011|access-date=16 October 2023|archive-date=5 November 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221105234645/https://bangaloremirror.indiatimes.com/entertainment/reviews/putra-familial-plot/articleshow/21500150.cms|url-status=live}}</ref><br />
