A presentation of BN Films, Nepali film ‘Vijaypath’ features top Nikhil and Sanchita in leading roles. The movie features cinematography by Shiva Dhakal, bckground music by Dinesh Sunam, choreography by Kamal Rai / Gobind Rai, action by Astha Maharjan, music by Basanta Sapkota / Santosh Rai, story by BP karki, script / dialogue by Pradeep Bhatta, and editing by Bipin Malla,
It has only been 7 months since Nikhil and Sanchita had their first child – and there is rumor of another child in Sanchita’s belly.
The first child was scheduled to be delivered on August 10 but took a little while before he was born on August 21, on Krishna Janmastami. It is a coincidence that Sanchita’s next baby’s delivery date is also the same – August 10, exactly a year after the delivery date of her first child.
For the last two decades, Nepali film industry has been ruled by Rajesh Hamal and his craze hasn’t diminished to date. The new comer actors had tried to follow his path, but none have succeeded. Hamal represents masala types of movies with common ingredients like action, comedy, songs, and glamorous actresses.
After the release of "Sano Sansar" and "Kagbeni", Nepali movies had stepped in new direction creating a sharp contrast between the two groups of film makers.

Divorce in Nepali movie sector has become a common happening these days. Divorce brings in pain and problems and doesn’t come easy for both the parties involved. The traditional Nepali society has made it even worse in terms of setting a ‘bad example’ in the society.
Let’s analyze some of the high profile problems in marriages of the personalities of Nepali movie industry:
Bhuwan KC / Sushmita KC – Bhuwan KC is known for his affairs with various ladies. Bhuwan KC’s first marriage with Bijaya KC ended when Bijaya went to USA with their kids. Bhuwan found Sushmita KC as his second wife. That too didn’t lasted long and they ‘divorced’ until they reunited again after the release of “Ma Timi Bina Marihalchu”. But, they have divorced again. Bhuwan’s affair with Sharmila Dangol didn’t go far and he is living alone these days. We won’t be surprised if Bhuwan and Sushmita get together after the release of ‘Sathi Ma Timro’ as predicted by friends in Films Nepal. (update- they didn’t get together, but there is rumor that Bhuwan is having an affair with Jiya KC)
On the 13th of January, Friday four Nepali movies are being released in Kathmandu.
Although all the four movies Loot, Bazar, Sadak and Masti claim to be a hit, it is no secret that there simply aren’t enough Nepali movie lovers to watch more than one new movie in theaters.
