Critical reception

Zinia Sen of The Times of India reviewed "All the actors add to the revelry that this hilarious script by Padmanabha Dasgupta ensures. There are smart lines too many, and most work despite the heavy sexual undertones. But the narrative is not entirely devoid of glitches. The beautiful sunkissed pre-quake Nepal comes alive with Sirsha Ray's deft handling of the camera and some euphoric un-Anupam Roy numbers by Anupam Roy. The opening scene leaves a mark and sets the tone for the laughathon ahead. In the end, as Raj Chakrabarty chooses north over south, we don't really give a damn. It's cinema, both smart and with a heart."

Sequel

Buoyed by the success of Katmundu, director Raj Chakraborty is planning a sequel. And if all goes according to plan, Katmundu 2 should see the light of day next Puja.

Box office: katmundu film's budget is 4 crore Rs & this film's box office collection is 4.15 crore after 28 days.
