Critical reception edit

Taptapadi movie received negative reviews from critics. A Reviewer of Loksatta says "Atya, played by Neena Kulkarni, is also a bit emotional. Veena Jamkar's performance is the strength of this film".[3] Soumitra Pote of Maharashtra Times wrote "Overall.. We should expect good movies from this director in future. In the very first film, he has taken up a very heavy and fluid subject. He has a lot to learn from this experience. Not a bad start for him".[4] A Reviewer of Divya Marathi wrote "This is a magnificent failed attempt in Marathi. Veena Jamkar, except for the portrayal skills, there is not much in the film to hold the audience".[5]
