Pashupati Prasad is a 2016 Nepali social satirical film directed by Dipendra K Khanal and written by Khagendra Lamichhane. The film stars Khagendra Lamichhane and Barsha Siwakoti in lead roles. The film features the struggle of a poor guy who lost his parents in an earthquake; he then travels to Kathmandu to earn his living and pay off his late father's debt.

The story is based on the struggle of poor people to pay off the debt. It was nominated for the Nepalese entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 89th Academy Awards, along with Ko Aafno and The Black Hen, where The Black Hen was selected for the entry. After a huge loss in his movie Vigilante 3D (The first Nepali 3D movie), Dipendra K Khanal went into depression and started visiting Pashupatinath temple. He saw many problems there and thought about releasing the movie related to all the issues he saw there. When he made the script and gave his friends to read, his friend told him that the movie would not get a good response, but he did not listen to his friend and started shooting the movie, and the film received an extremely positive response from the majority of viewers.

After Pashupati Prasad became one of the most successful movies in the history of Nepali cinema, the same team, with director Dipendra K Khanal and Khagendra Lamichhane, made a new movie based on the social drama Dhanapati, released in 2017.
