We posted a poster of Nepali movie "Premika" in which, the poster was 100% copy from a Telugu movie. The poster of another movie, Devyani, isn’t 100 percent copy but it also has picked poster of a German movie ‘Perfume: The Story of a Murderer ‘ to add in it’s poster. Such a copy in poster reduces the credibility of the movie and gives an impression that the movie itself is not original.

Risker to drive in Nepal (Traffic accident data analysis)
In May, 2011 we posted about traffic accidents in Nepal up to FY 2066/067. Adding one more data to the chart shows an alarming increase in the number of accident in FY 2067/068. That was an increase of more than 500 accidents in a year.
When we see the number of death due to accidents, the number also increases from 146 to 171 death, an increase of 25 deaths.
The data shows that the government is not doing enough to reduce accidents or death caused by such accidents. So, the citizen themselves should be more careful while driving. They should be more proactive to increase awareness in people about traffic safety and rules of the road.
I hope the social media groups that have been doing laudable works in the past will also think in that direction.

When movie posters are not original- Premika poster compared with 100% Love poster

Government official stationed in Dance Restaurant?
At around 9.30 pm on November 12, Riten Kharel saw this government vehicle parked in a dance restaurant "Bhanjyang Rodhi" at Gwarko and took this photo.
One can be pretty sure that the official who is assigned the vehicle shouldn’t be in his job related work at that time of night. Riten asks, ‘Isn’t it the misuse of a government property?" Government officials are free to visit any restaurant. But, do they need to use the government vehicle and spend government purchased gasoline for their personal gratification?
What do you think?
Does anybody know which office does the license plate belong to?

What a noble way to become fresh.. watching blue films
When you are stressed out, how do you become fresh? If you ask me, I would either stroll in a park… or listen to a sweet music… not the way model Etna Karki says how she becomes fresh.
The image above is taken from the ‘Shukrabar’ magazine cover. We haven’t read the article posted in page 21. But, the title “Blue film herera fresh hunchhu,” says a lot.
Some of the questions and answers (rough translation from Nepali):
Do you have experience of sex?
Yes of course… with my boyfriend.
Have you seen Blue film?
Yes I have seen. I was 17 years old at at that time. I was very excited after watching the movie. I do watch them occasionally and be fresh.

Yesterday, Sahana Bajracharya, in her Facebook profile, announced via a mobile device that she was “Cake mixing at Annapurna ;)”
