Former Prime Minister Oli reviewed Chhakka Panja as good film but criticized the film's title. Jhalanath Khanal also gave good review to the film saying film deranged him with its social satire.^[10] The Himalayan Times wrote Chhakka Panja to be a total comedy and social drama, a story of friendship, love and revenge. It is hilarious from start to finish."^[11]
