Reception
Following the trivia of the previous film Guptodhoner Sandhane, Durgeshgorer Guptodhon was also a box office blockbuster and the highest grossing Bengali film of 2019.[7] The movie received mostly positive reviews from critics. Upam Buzarbaruah of The Times of India gave it a rating of 3.5 out of 5.[8] Antara Mazumdar of Anandabazar Patrika gave it a rating of 6.5 out of 10.[9] Firstpost's editor Bhaskar Chattopadhyay rated the movie 3 out of 5, saying "Durgeshgorer Guptodhon, like his previous film, too tells the adventurous story of the trio, who has by now captured the imagination of Bengali audiences, both young and old. Flavored in a dizzying marinade of history and lore, and garnished with ample doses of puzzles, riddles, ciphers, and hidden codes, it is one of the more intelligent Bengali films in recent times. The puzzles seem neither fake nor forced, the clues are in fact quite exciting to decode, and the overall breezy nature of the storytelling ensures that even the strictest of critics have a jolly good time. I know I did".[10]
Sequel
A sequel titled Karnasubarner Guptodhon was released on 30 September 2022, with Abir Chatterjee, Arjun Chakraborty and Ishaa Saha reprising their roles, directed by Dhrubo Banerjee.
