I was doing an analysis of events of 1951 when Rana regime was abolished and ‘democracy’ was established. But, it seem to be totally opposite. The Rana seem to be more liberal than the kings.

• Adhakatti – Bada Dashain ma Hasne Hoina ta (Don’t you want to laught in Dashain

Two more movies that embrace this type of promotion are yet to be released:
