Thappad opened to glowing reviews from film critics post its release on February 28. In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave four stars (out of five) to Thappad and wrote, "The slap is the principal point of departure in Thappad, an undemonstrative yet resounding drama that poses pertinent questions about gender imbalances in a man-woman relationship without claiming to be in the know of all the answers. It is the heroine's reaction to the humiliation she is subjected to and its emotional and social repercussions that the film is more interested in."
Apart from Taapsee, Thappad also stars Pavail Gulati, Dia Mirza, Tanvi Azmi, Kumud Mishra, Ram Kapoor, Ankur Rathee, Ratna Pathak Shah and Manav Kaul. The film has been directed by Anubhav Sinha.
