Critical response 
Tapaal received positive reviews from critics. Mihir Bhanage of The Times of India rated the film 4 out of 5 stars and wrote "Many of us still get nostalgic about handwritten letters but some of us might not have had the opportunity to write or read a postcard or inland letter. For the previous category, this is a chance to re-live the memories and for the latter, this is one tapaal that you surely don’t want to miss". Ganesh Matkari of Pune Mirror wrote "I wouldn’t go into other minor points. In fact, even in the present version, I’d still recommend the film. Other than songs, almost everything adds to the impact. Utekar’s framing is wondrous and the direction is seasoned". Sachin Fulpagare of Maharashtra Times rated the film 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "Overall, 'Tapaal' is a treat to watch. Teamwork is strong. With sincere efforts, Utekar has made his first work of art. It is not a problem to go to the theater and see it once". Divya Marathi wrote "This Tapaal is a must-see for a beautiful blend of human emotions. The content of this is not only to tear the veil of the present hypocritical, mean and hypocritical world, but it is also a reminder to preserve humanity as well as to be joyful". Accolades
