Pradeep Khadka and Jassita Gurung starrer film ‘Love Station’ is not yet released in theatre. Only the trailer of the film is released. But, based on the scenes in the film, it is highly likely that the movie is an actual copy of this Turkish film, titled ‘Her Sey Asaktan’.
The trailer starts with actress Jassita Gurung coming out of ‘Love Station Restaurant and Lounge’. The character Gurung is featured in is alarmed by the sound of horn of a car. The reaction of Jassita is exact copy of a scene in ‘Her Sey Asaktan’. It is not only the scene, the vehicle Pradeep is driving and that in the Turkish film is of similar design.
Based on this scene, it is clear that the director has copied it in the Nepali film. It is highly likely that the whole film is copied from the movie.
I think, the original scene is more seasoned and better presented than the Nepali version. Although the dialogue delivery seems okey, the scene execution is somewhat sloppy in the Nepali movie.
Watch the first minute of the trailer (attached below) and compare it with the scent at 7 minutes location in the following video.

The sequel of Namrata Shrestha and Aryan Sigdel film ‘Mero Euta Sathi Chha’ is in making. The new movie will be directed by the assistant director of the original film – Dinesh Raut.
The original film, released in 2009, was directed by Sudarshan Thapa. The movie was the debut film of the director who is also considered one of the most successful directors of the Nepali film industry. Dinesh Raut was his assistant in the film. Dinesh later directed superhit films like November Rain, Classic and Prasad. Actress Namrata Shrestha is the actress of his choice in his films. Namrata was featured in all of his films including not-so-successful’Parva’. In the initial movies, Aryan was featured opposite to Namrata but, he has dropped Aryan in the last couple of films – ‘Parva’ and ‘Prasad’.
According to reports, Raut is yet to official sign the agreement. Other artists in the movie are also not finalized. Based on the past films, Namrata Shrestha is expected to be featured in the leading role in the sequel of her own film.
In the ofirinal movie Namrata was featured opposite to Aryan Sigdel. Other artists in the movie were Jiwan Luitel, Dayahang Rai, Jenisha Moktan and Sushma Karki. Sushma Karki was the girlfriend of the director Sudarshan Thapa at that time. Now, Sushma and Sudarshan have broken up and there are rumours of Sudarshan’s affair with another actress Pooja Sharma.
This is not the first time the rumour of the making of the movie has surfaced. In 2015, Aaryan Sigdel Films had announced the making of the film. But, the movie didn’t go to floor and it was shelved.
The original movie was not an original story. It is a copy of a Korean film named ‘A Millionaire’s First Love’ (the producers and directors however haven’t disclosed the fact.)
