Gandu was an official selection at the 2011 Berlin International Film Festival and was also screened at the Slamdance Film Festival.

Gandu has received mainly positive reviews from critics. John Reis called it "a stunning visual and narrative feast" while Variety said it is "a happily transgressive rhyme-fueled romp".

Gandu has caused some controversy because of language and scenes of nudity and sex. Many audience left cinema halls during the sex scenes. Because of the controversy the film did not have its first public screening in India until 2012 at the Osian Film Festival. The protagonist Anubrata Basu is shown with his penis fully erect being stroked and fellated in a sex scene with Rii Sen.
