Abhimanyu Dixit of The Kathmandu Post wrote, "For a debut film, Sapkota has shown audacity and a lot of potential. There are moments that speak for the filmmaker and his love for the medium. For example, the film opens with a shot of a child and closes on a funeral pyre. Here’s hoping this film has birthed a space for more young, fresh minds to come ahead and share their stories. We will find perfection along the way". [3] Diwakar Pyakurel of Online Khabar wrote, "Selfie King's strength is its story, not the making. It is a ruthless revelation of the tragedy of a comedian's life. The young director needs to improve his presentation skills to quench the Nepali audience's thirst for ‘good movies". [4] Sunny Mahat of The Annapurna Express wrote, "Written by the director himself, the film's screenplay is extremely loose and the story unconvincing". [5]
