Bollywood actress of Nepali origin is back in Nepal, shooting for her upcoming Nepali film “Dharmaâ€. Her first and the only one Nepali movie, Pheri Bhetaula, was released some 22 years back. The movie was not that successful and she left for Mumbai to seek acting opportunities there.

After 22 years of absence in Nepali movies, Manisha Koirala has recently started acting in a Nepali movie named Dharma. The movie originally named ‘Rajniti’ was renamed ‘Dharma’ to suit the character of Manisha.
Manisha had enjoyed the post of the top actress in Bollywood, the Indian movie capital, for some time in the past. But, these days new actresses have taken over and she doesn’t have much projects in hand. That was one of the reason she agreed to act in the Nepali movie. Nepali movie industry is not as advanced as Bollywood and the talent in the industry is not of that of the quality Manisha is used to.
Even before its inauguration, Girls, a movie to be directed and produced by Prince is dragged into controversy. Invitation card of the inauguration ceremony of the Trends Nepal’s first venture featured the lead actress Jenisha with bare back.
But, Jenisha claimed that the body of the girl featured on the invitation card and poster is not hers. She claimed that her head was attached to somebody else’s body, digitally.
The producer and director, Prince, however said that they didn’t do any Photoshop tricks on the actress’s body. He also told that if Jenisha doesn’t admit the truth, she might even be out of the project.
Manisha Koirala started her film career with a Nepali film. That was before she went to Bollywood, where she once was the top actress. Her golden days seems to be over in Bollywood as she doesn’t have much Bollywood movies in hand. She is utilizing her free time by acting in a Nepali movie.
Manisha is going to act in the lead actress role in ‘Dharma’, a movie directed by Dipendra K Khanal (‘The Yug Dekhi Yug Samma’ fame). Apart from Manisha, Rajesh Hamal and Nikhil Upreti will act in lead actor roles. Madhav Acharya, Anu Shah and Shankar Acharya will act in supporting actors role in the movie.
The movie, previously named ‘Rajniti’, was renamed ‘Dharma’ after signing Manisha in the lead role.
