Shashwat Pant of Onlinekhabar wrote, "Overall, the movie is disappointing. It felt like watching another sequel of Chakka Panja mainly because most of the members of the cast were same and everything was presented in a similar way."[7] Anand Nepal of Xnepali wrote, "The movie is very entertaining, the actors have done a great job. The technical aspect of the movie is also very good."[8]
