Barsha Raut troll and Namrata Shrestha and Priyanka Karki conflicting responses

Posted on by Anand Nepal

Two actresses have totally different approach on the troll that has been going on in the internet.

A usually sober actress, Barsha Raut, appeared in a revealing cloth in the premier of her film ‘Jatrai Jatra’ in Sydney, Australia. That is in contrast of the perception that Barsha doesn’t prefer showing off her body. When the trolls start to surface, Barsha’s husband responded by telling that he was supportive of Barsha (video temporarily removed).

Then came Priyanka Karki. The actress often being trolled herself also supported Barsha and wasn’t happy for those taking the issue negatively. Priyanka Karki in her Instagram post wrote: For all the peopel sying the dress is too ‘low cut’ she should have worn something sober … the dress is too ‘revealing’, you shouldn’t have done that for publicity …
NO! You (the ones saying the most demeaning and disrespectful stufd about a woman. YES YOU!) Actually you’re too ‘judgmental’ and you need to STOP THAT SHIT! NOW!”

Mero Euta Sathi Chha sequel to be directed by the assistant director of the original, Dinesh Raut

Posted on by Anand Nepal

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.

Watch ‘Mero Euta Sathi Chha’ here.

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.)

Is Namrata Shrestha cashing on the scandal ?

Posted on by Anand Nepal

The scandal actress Namrata Shrestha went through about a decade ago – right after the release of her second movie, ‘Mero Euta Sathi Chha’, is going to be revived again this year. According to reports, a novel is being written about the scandal and Namrata Shrestha. The novel that is to be named yet is bing written by Sabin Priyadarshani, a journalist fro Dang.

A video report about the report:

The scandal of Namrata Shrestha caused a lot of pressure on Namrata Shrestha. She went into hiding and there was an extensive debate on what a person should do about their personal moments. Some debated that such moments shouldn’t be recorded as the digital world is unpredictable. Others debated that personal moments should be kept personal and nobody should have the right to publish it in public. The debate is still going and there is no final decision.

One thing is clear, such things are undesirable and should be protected. They shouldn’t be the topic of public scrutiny.

Too cheap; What is the rate of a Nepali actress?

Posted on by Anand Nepal

Nepali actresses come very cheap when compared to their male counterparts. The actress Rekha Thapa, who claims to be equivalent to a male actress, and always works in female-centric movies, is paid less than most of the male actors. Rekha’s rate is Rs. 5 lakh. Actor Anmol KC is paid about five times that amount. Another actor Pradeep Khadka is also paid more than four times that amount. In Rekha’s last movie, she also paid her co-star, Aryan Sigdel, 3 times the amount she expects others to pay her.

Is it a female dominance or a discrimination? Are the actresses not demanding their worth?

First let’s see who is paid what amount watch the video report:

List of the pay rate of Nepali actors:

  • Anmol KC – 25 lakh for ‘Kri’ (Anmol’s father, Bhuwan KC is co-producer of the movie)
  • Pradeep Khadka – 23 Lakh for ‘Lilibili’
  • Aryan Sigdel – 15 Lakh for ‘Rudrapriya’
  • Dayahang Rai – 15 Lakh for ‘Mr. Jholey’
  • Saugat Malla – 9 Lakh for ‘Mero Paisa Khoi’
  • Paul Shah – 8 Lakh for ‘Shatru Gate’
  • Nikhil Upreti – 6 Lakh for ‘Sanrakshan’

The well known actors Bhuwan KC and Rajesh Hamal both reportedly demand Rs. 6 Lakh for a movie.

Celebrity Tihar, photo highlights of Bhai Tika, 2017

Posted on by Anand Nepal

I have been sharing Tihar photos of Nepali celebrities for the last few years. Last year, I had shared 20 photos of celebrating Tihar. This year I wanted to continue the tradition by posting 20 more photos this year. I haven’t repeated the same celebrities but, most of them are the same every year. If you want to learn more, there is the details on the five days of Tihar.

The photos of the previous years:

Although Bhai Tika is celebrated with brothers and sisters, they don’t need to be biological siblings. Those who don’t have their own siblings, or those who are separated because of living at different place, find one of their liking and make a temporary brother or sister for the festival.

Anmol KC is currently in the USA. He celebrated Tihar with his step-sister, Kajal KC in the USA. Kajal, her mother, Bijaya KC and her brother live in the USA. Bhuwan’s home production Kajal Films is named after Kajal KC.

Top 5 scandals in Nepali movie industry

Posted on by Anand Nepal

This is an update on the post I made a year ago in 2016. There was a new leak of photos of actress Susana Dhakal a while ago. In the photo she is seen in a hotel strategically covering the sensitive parts but without any clothes. The photos were uploaded in her own Facebook page. After the leak she told that she had lost her mobile phone and apparently those photos were in her phone and somebody uploaded them without her consent. The event is a warning to everybody what can happen if you keep the photos you don’t want others to see in your phone. Susana’s scandal was not that big when compared to the following five scandals.
