Critical reception Season 1 Shamayita Chakraborty of
OTTplay rated the series 4/5 stars and opined "Sampurna is a must-watch. It is a reality check for all of us in society. It brings up real questions about the legal system that refuses to recognise marital rape as a criminal offence." She praised the simplicity and relatability of the series, the performance of the actors, the picturisation of the society where many men think their wife is their personal property and they need to not ask their wives' "consent" for having sex. But she criticized the colour palette, weak animation, the overstretched ten minutes segment in the last episode, the long scenes throughout and the sloppy dialogues. Poorna Banerjee of
The Times of India rated the series 3/5 stars and wrote "Tackling a subject as sensitive as marital rape with a strong female-centric narrative is not an easy task, but Sayantan Ghosal tries to weave a believable plot that slowly stretches across the span of six episodes." She praised the pace of the episodes, the weight put on the topic, the melodramatic background score, and the bonding between Sampurna and Nandini. But she bemoaned the weak dialogues in certain parts and mentioned that sometimes, it became traumatizing to watch owing to the director's excess focus on such a sensual topic like marital trape. Lubaba Mahjabin Prima of
The Daily Star reviewed the series and worded "The show reminds us that even the people closest to us can be monsters, and that no matter what, marriage never equals consent." She praised the core message of the series, strong dialogues, the storyline, background score but bemoaned the not so good editing and cinematography. Archi Sengupta of
Leisure Byte rated the series 4/5 and wrote "The 6-episode series is a gripping watch. Marital rape is such a difficult subject matter that Indians don’t really believe it to be an issue. Our cultures and our reputations in society are much more important than a young woman’s comfort, privacy and health – Sampurna might just make you introspect a little." She praised the bonding between Sampurna and Nandini, the discomforting reality maintained throughout the series and the gripping storyline.
Season 2 Archi Sengupta of
Leisure Byte rated the second season of
Sampurna 3/5 stars and wrote "Sampurna 2 is quite watchable and might also be traumatising, but it lacks that charm and fear of watching two very normal people fighting against injustices in their own homes and against people who are also as normal as them." She praised the handling of such a sensitive topic, and Sohini and Rajnandini's performance but criticised the melodrama, cliched all powerful portrayal of the uncle, the half baked connection with the first part, less relatability and charm compared to the first part and the rushed up ending.
