It's a fast paced love story cum action drama that doesn't give viewers much time to think about what's happening. The movie starts off as a love story and turns into an intense, violent and, at times crazy drama.

The action scenes and water boat chase deserve a special mention. Cinematography is efficient at places. All in all, Paagalpan is worth your time. The film has opened to a decent response and at the box-office window, this moderately
