"First Love" features Namrata Shrestha as guest artist
People have high expectation from Simosh Sunwar’s First Love. Although the movie was told to be based on an original story, it was later found that the story was copied from a 1982 Hollywood movie, The Last American Virgin. The success would certainly depend on how well Simosh has copied it.
The film crew had done a good job in hiding the fact that Namrata Shrestha is also featured in the movie. Many were surprised to see Namrata during the audio release of the movie but none suspected about her acting in the movie. It wasn’t until the premier, the fact about Namrata’s role in the movie was known.
Namrata’s role in the movie however is very short. She is acting in it as a guest actress and she appears at the end of the movie.
Renamed Krishnaa hits theaters in Kathmandu
Due to unavailability of theaters, many movies had to wait for years to be released. After such a long time, a lot of things change and to give an impression to the viewers that the movie is new, the producers change the names.
A movie released a fortnight back, ‘Sangharsha Jindagiko’ was named different before release. Similarly, another movie released on Friday, August 6, is also renamed ‘Krishnaa’ right before its release. The movie was shot by the name ‘Kholawari Kholapari’ but the producer wanted to the movie to reflect the current time by renaming it.
The producer of the movie RB Khatri thinks ‘Krishnaa’ was a modern name and is suitable for the movie just before it’s release. Viewers won’t be surprised if the movie needs a lot more additions to be complete.
The star cast in the movie however is very impressive. Rajesh Hamal, Rekha Thapa, Nikhil Upreti, are Nandiata KC the leading actors in the movie. In the initial days of the shooting, JB Rai was the director but, when he left the team, assistant director Sujan Lama had to take over the directing job.

Increasing number of Film related Nepali websites
The first film related magazine in Nepal was ‘Kamana‘ but they never made a good enough website to talk about. The group that publishes Kamana is not that interested in website and they are pretty happy with the printed publication. The screenshot on the right speaks volumes on its online presence.
As far as I know, the first dedicated film related website was filmnepal.com. The site is still there but it doesn’t get updated that frequently. The site is full of age-old stories that no one is interested in.
