Deepali Singh of The Times of India gave 3.5 out of 5 stating "There are many heartfelt moments, especially in the latter half of the film which are bound to move you and can leave you teary-eyed. Add to that is the fact that this was actor Satish Kaushik’s last film. The second one is reason enough to watch the movie."[9]
Ganesh Aaglave of Firstpost rated 3.5 stars and wrote "On the whole, Kaagaz 2 is a befitting tribute to Satish Kaushik with Anupam Kher and Darshan Kumar’s superb act."[10]
Rishil Jogani of Pinkvilla rated the film 2.5 stars out of 5 and wrote "Kaagaz 2 does highlight an important concern that civilians face. However, the film's shoddy writing and execution never allows it to take the necessary flight. Those who wish to watch Satish Kaushik in his final appearance or wish to know more about the inconvenience caused by on-road rallies and protests can give the film a try."[11]
