On Monday, the daughter of Dhurmus (Sitaram Kattel) and Suntali (Kunjana Ghimire) was named amongst a traditional naming ceremony – Nwaran. The priest suggested the name to start with ‘Do’ according to the location of celestial bodies at the time of the birth of the child.

Although Dhurmus has jokingly stated calling the mother Donisha’s Mother, the name of the child can still be changed for the day-to-day use.
The top comedians of television – Deepak Raj Giri, Jitu Nepal, Sitaram Kattel, Kedar Ghimire, Shiva Hari Poudel – each have the potential to make an extremely funny movie. But, the movie featuring all of them in leading role – ‘Chha Ekan Chha’ – doesn’t have anything that impressive in terms of story.
Released on January 10, 2014 the movie ‘Chha Ekan Chha’ is produced jointly by comedy serial ‘Tito Satya’ team comprising of Deepak Raj Giri, Deepa Shree Niraula and Nirmal Sharma (Gaida). The movie directed by Dinesh DC features the top comedy actors of most popular comedy serials ‘Tito Satya’, ‘Jire Khursani’, and ‘Meri Bassai’. The sole actress in the movie is Neeta Dhungana.
‘Chha Ekan Chha’ movie team are currently promoting the movie by doing different promotional activities. Recently the team was seen distributing jackets to street children. Considering the hardship of the street children during the cold days, the movie team distributed jackets with the films’ name written on them.
The artists present during the distribution of jackets include Deepak Raj Giri, Deepa Shree Niraula, Sitaram Kattel (Dhrumus), Nirmal Sharma (Gaida) and Kabita Sharma.
Starring – Sushil Chhetri, Prerana Sharma, Kunjana Ghimire, Kedar Ghimire, Sitaram Kattel (Comedy serial Meri Bassai’s Suntali, Dhurmus, and Magne Budho) etc.
Writer/Director – Kamal Mainali
The 2007 movie ‘Daud’ is the presentation of Raj Basnet for Indrini Films and produced by Rabindara Thapa. Special thanks to Madan Krishan Shrestha, Hari Bansha Acharya, Narandra Kansakar and others.
Here are some highlights of Tihar celebrations of Nepali celebrities.
Actress Namrata Shrestha celebrated Bhai Tika:
Actress Rekha Thapa celebrated Bhai Tika in Morang with two of her brothers and returned back to Kathmandu to offer tika to Kamal Krishna and others.
A movie written and being produced by Deepak Raj Giri, ‘Chha Ekan Chha’ will feature him as the lead actor but, his opposite won’t be Deepa Shree Niraula. With the popularity of the husband-wife character in ‘Tito Satya’ one can’t think of one without the other. Many believe that they are husband and wife in real life. In reality Deepa is still unmarried and Deepak is happily married with grownup kids.
It seems, Deepak wants to give a break to the image and work with other actresses. The story Deepak wrote for the movie doesn’t have a character that fits Deepa. So, she won’t be seen in the movie at all. Although Deepa isn’t happy about it, Deepak has patched it up by offering the assistant director role to Deepa.
