KATHMANDU: The posters for the Nepali movie Laaj Sharaam were unveiled today, marking the New Year celebration.
The production team released three intriguing posters, featuring the main cast and offering glimpses into the film’s storyline.
Posters Spark Curiosity
The first poster showcases Harish Niraula (Cockroach), Bijay Baral, Sagar Lamsal (Bale), and Arjun Ghimire (Paadey) peering out of a coffin with expressions of surprise and amusement.
This visual hints at a thought-provoking take on what people might experience after death.
In the second poster, an enigmatic figure stands atop a coffin, balancing a scale with Yarsagumba on one side and a gold bar on the other.
The heavier gold bar symbolizes greed and the extremes people go to for wealth, set against a backdrop of mountains and villages.
The third poster features Harish and Bijay in a symbolic scene—Bijay blows a horn made of human bones while seated on Harish’s back, possibly signifying revenge and power dynamics.
These posters cleverly tease a mix of comedy and depth, leaving the audience curious about the actual storyline.
