Critical response

Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express gave the film 1 out of 5, writing, "Why did this ultra-loud, blindingly colour-coordinated bunch who did nothing of any consequence in the first movie, bother to circle back for a sequel?"

Deepa Gahlot of Rediff.com gave the film 2 out of 5, calling the production values as "shoddy" and the plot "incoherent." Agnivo Niyogi of The Telegraph India criticised the screenplay and "focus on several subplots", writing, "Khichdi 2: Mission Paanthukistan struggles to create the kind of comedic moments that were the hallmark of the original TV serial."

A critic from Bollywood Hungama rated the film 2.5/5 stars and wrote "Khichdi 2 suffers from a weak second half and an unimaginative script."
