==Critical reception==<br />
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."<ref>{{cite news|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/bengali/movie-reviews/Katmundu/movie-review/49438013.cms|title=Katmundu Movie Review|newspaper=[[The Times of India]]|accessdate=18 Oct 2015}}</ref><br />
