Sharing the first day response to the film, film trade analyst Taran Adarsh had tweeted on Friday, “#Tadap springs a BIGGG SURPRISE... 1656 screens, 50% occupancy in largest market [#Maharashtra], yet posts SOLID TOTAL on Day 1… Eclipses biz of all #Hindi films… Target audience - youth - contribute to energetic footfalls...

Suniel penned a heartfelt note on Instagram on the film's release and also shared a piece of advice for Ahan. He wrote, "Ahan! Your first Friday. Your first film release. Time for Tadap is here and will also go by like every other day. Becoming just another milestone as the movies flash by. But remember one thing. People are true if you are. Don't take it to heart if they critique you, it's a learning. Don't get too punch drunk on praise. It's a perk."

Asking him to stay grounded, he added, “Just stay blessed, grounded, simple, honest, true and the people, the public - the only followers that matter - will become your friends. All in all, be as sincere as you were for your first film. Make people love you. Love them back. Like I love you son. Best for your first. Cheers to you.”
