Reception
Critical response
'Kaagaz Ke Fools' received generally negative reviews from critics. The film is one of the worst movie of 2015. Shubhra Gupta of 'The Indian Express' stated, "You keep wanting this film to ho ja shuru, but Kaagaz Ke Fools doesn't have the feet for it."Ratings
Sushmita Murthy of 'Deccan Chronicle' gave the film 1/5 stars and stated, "The name of the film leads you to believe that Kaagaz ke Fools is a comedy, but it is at best, an attempt at it with rather painful results."Shubha Shetty-Saha of 'Mid-Day' giving the same ratings stated, "The 1959 Guru Dutt classic 'Kaagaz Ke Phool' was so ahead of its time that it tanked at the Box Office, and later got elevated to world cult classic status. Ironically, and perhaps reflecting the sad state of Bollywoods growth, in 2015 we get a film titled 'Kaagaz ke Fools', which is so regressive and dated that it just might have made some sense back in the 50s. Well, if nothing, the film makes us painfully aware of the difference between a phool and a fool."
Soundtrack
The soundtrack for the album was composed by Sangeeta Pant and lyrics were penned by Sangeeta Pant, Ravi Basnet.
