Release and marketing

Dil Raju announced co-producing and presenting the film under the banner Sri Venkateswara Creations on February 2021.[2] At the film's first look poster which released on 2 February 2021, the team announced a release date of 30 April 2021.[2] However, on 18 March 2021, a new release date of 1 May 2021 was announced.[25] The film was again postponed due to the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.[26]

As a part of a promotional strategy, the filmmakers announced that the trailer of the film will be screened only in theatres and will not be released online,[27] despite the film's teaser which released online on 18 February 2021.[5] Furthermore, the team planned for a 15-day promotional tour across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana as a part of the marketing purposes.[27]

Reception

The film generally received mixed reviews.[28][29][30] Neeshita Nyayapati of The Times of India gave a rating of 2.5 out of 5, and stated that "Paagal is an over-drawn yet quirky love story with a flimsy storyline guiding you through it. And does have its redeemable qualities though."[31] Sangeetha Devi Dundoo of The Hindu called it "bizarre romcom drama" and felt that "The story idea of a man seeking mother’s love from his life partner is contrived; it’s time the on-screen lover boys get real and grow up."[32]

A reviewer from The Hans India rated the film 2.5 out of 5, and praised performances of the cast, Sen in particlular. They, however, criticized the slow-placed narration and screenplay, writing "Overall, 'Paagal' is an average film with the same old storyline blended with some decent comedy scenes.[33] A critic of Pinkvilla praised acting performances of Vishwak Sen and Murali Sharma and added that "The biggest flaw in 'Paagal' is that it has a very unevolved idea of love at its core."[34] Sakshi's Anji Shetty opined that acting performances of lead actors, music and cinematography are it's positives, while film's screenplay is its negative.[35] Eenadu criticized the film's screenplay and praised Vishwak's performance, film score and cinematography.[36]

In it's review, NTV stated – "‘Paagal’ has got a strong premise. But the narration is too misguided to save the story from seeming frivolous."[37]
