Reception

''Ghar'' received mixed reviews from critics; most called it "''cliché''" in comparison to Hollywood horror films, while they praised it in the Nepali context, and some even called it one of the best Nepali films made in the horror genre. Sunny Mahat from '' The Annapurna Express'' gave it a rating of 4 stars. He suggested audience not to watch the film alone; he wrote: "Not exaggerating at all when we say that this has to be the scariest Nepali movie ever made, giving tough competition even to its Bollywood contemporaries." Abhimanyu Dixit from '' The Kathmandu Post'' gave the rating of 2 stars. He wrote: "''Ghar'' is not even trying to stand out. It is an attempt at by-the-numbers supernatural horror, with no likeable characters, all the clichés in the book, and irritatingly loud sound effects. All of these end up making the film campy, exaggerated and gimmicky, rather than scary." Diwakar Pyakurel from ''
