Time again Nepal’s Censor Board is known for acting on the baseless intuition of it’s members. As many of their decision are not based on facts, a protest or judicial decision help them to change their decision. In a latest case, the Board has decided that the tattoo of sun on actress Sushma Karki‘s breast is against patriotic norms.
The decision was made while censoring a movie featuring Sushma in an item dance in her upcoming movie ‘Rajniti’. Although the movie was awarded a PG certificate, the Board has asked the film makers to remove the portions of the movie featuring the actress’ tattoo.
It was not the first time Sushma has shown the tattoo in movies. The posters of her movie ‘Bindaas’ had her featuring the tattoo. But, the Censor Board hadn’t objected on the tattoo at that time.
Actress Binita Baral has started a new type of business, organic farming. After starting a business of organic farming in June, she has realized that the Nepali media doesn’t care about the betterment of society. When she talked about sex, everybody wrote about her statement. But now, when she talks about farming and agriculture, nobody cares. Binita received lukewarm response in media about her farming business.
Binita says, "At the time when young people are going out of country for job, I have started a business that anybody can start."
Comedy artist Nirmal Sharma is expanding his role in Nepali movie industry in recent days. He had joined hands with Deepak Raj Giri in producing a comedy movie titled ‘Chha Ekan Chh’. His next project is going to be directed by himself and produced by actress Poojana Stri. The movie titled ‘Chocolate’ is going to be made on the story of street child.
On her 30th birthday Rekha Thapa didn’t organized a celebration party but, called a small informal meeting with journalist in Indreni Foodland, Maharajgunj. In the meeting, she presented three of the five children she had been supporting for the last two years.
Rekha told that she had started supporting five violence affected children for the on her birthday two years ago. She told that she had been supporting the children by providing all their requirements including place to live, food, education and health. Rekha told, "I have earned the name and fame from movies. Now, I want to support the society by doing social works."
In a report in news24 television, Deepak Raj Giri and Deepa Shree Niraula were caught drinking and driving. After being caught their license and bill-book was confiscated by the traffic police. In addition to the ‘Tito Satya’ duo, licenses of other film personalities were also confiscated by the traffic and they haven’t received them back because of the police requirement for them to participate in an drinking and driving awareness class.
The report says that they were caught by the traffic on Chaitra 4, 2069 (March 17, 2013) at about 10:00 PM in Kathmandu. Deepa and Deepak was driving different car but were caught at the same location. After that, none of the ‘Tito Satya’ actors haven’t shown up in the traffic police station to take their license and bill-book.

The professional photographers have chosen a non-professional – actress Rekha Thapa to feature in their yearly calendar. Being an actress, she had done her best to act like a photographer, but she has failed in a few shots and the professional photographers didn’t care to correct the poses. I haven’t got hold of the calendar myself but, from the photos shared by my Facebook friends I can see some of the problems of the calendar.
I have a few questions to the publishers of the calendar:
First, the calendar is made for the year 2070 BS. We are currently running on the fourth month of the year – almost through a quarter of the year. Nobody needs a calendar of this year at this time of the year. Whoever needs one might already have it in their walls. Unveiling a stale calendar defeats the sole purpose of the calendar.
I have seen calendars that feature a product in every page are either sponsored or produced by the product owners. In this calendar it would have made sense if Rekha Thapa were either the sponsor of the calendar or the owner of the calendar. As she is none, it doesn’t make sense to feature her in every page of the calendar. They could have used 12 different actresses or 12 different photographer journalists or just the best press photos in the calendar.
After the divorce Rekha Thapa and her ex-husband Chhabi Raj Ojha had produced ‘Kali‘ and ‘Loafer’ respectively and announced the same release date to compete with each other. But, when the release date nears, the relationship between the two has warmed up and now, Chhabi has appeared in ‘Kali’ poster as an executive producer.
Now Chhabi has acquired the release rights of ‘Kali’ and he will distribute the movie in the theaters. Earlier, ‘Kali’ was supposed to be distributed by other party but, Chhabi will return the advance received from the earlier party to distribute the film himself. He told, he and Rekha have realized that they are not competitors but business partners.
In the movie to be made on the life of singer Rajesh Payal Rai, the sportsperson and actress Sipora Gurung is going to be featured as the lead actress opposite to Rajesh. The movie named ‘Darshan Namaste’ will be the second movie of Sipora after her debut movie – ‘Ghalek’, a Gurung film.
The script of the movie written by Shivam Adhikari will be directed by Dinesh DC. The movie based on the struggle of Rajesh Payal Rai is produced by Rimesh Adhikari and will go on floor in January of 2014.
After more than a decade-long affair, the actor Sraj Garach has got married to his girlfriend Anjana Mishra.
Sraj started his acting career in the Nepali movie ‘Swor’. After that, he had worked in ‘Mayako Bari’, ‘My Life, and ‘Tyo Dus Ghnata’. Sraj’s upcoming movie include ‘Nagbeli’, ‘Santrash’ and ‘Kirtipur’. Before starting acting, Sraj was known as a model, Suraj Karki.
July 19 is the birthday of ex-Miss Nepal and journalist Malvika Subba. To celebrate her birthday Malvika went to Safaltha HIV Sikshya Sadan, the first of its kind in Nepal. She met the kids in the institute and celebrated her birthday.
Talking about the experience in her Facebook post, Malvika said:
It was in 2009 we talked about the movie – ‘Purple Days’ to be made on the life story of HIV positive social activist Ekata Mahat and Namrata Shrestha to do the role of the lead character. Now it seems, the movie will be made and Namrata has signed the agreement. The movie is expected to go on floor in a month.
The movie is being made by Eye Core Films. In the last two years, script was written based on the investigations and research on the life of Ekata.
Tattoo is a new and rapidly growing urban culture in Nepal. Youths are particularly attracted towards the permanent body art. Nepali actresses are using tattoo to enhance their beauty.
Our friends at Nepaliactress.com had collected five Nepali actresses who have made tattoos on their bodies. The most beautiful tattoos among them are that of Karishma Manandhar and Priyanka Karki. While other actresses like to showoff their tattoos, new actress Ashishma Nakarmi and Mausami Malla prefer to hide them.
In addition to the five actresses (or tattoo beauties) some more actresses have tattoos on their bodies.
