KATHMANDU: Director Saroj Paudel, renowned for the historical blockbuster “Purna Bahadur Ko Sarangi,” has announced the production of his new film, “Koshe Dhunga.”
The announcement was made through the release of the film’s theme poster, which features a woman standing on a hilltop, gazing at the mountains with a large tree and a traditional hillside house in the foreground.
The background shows a misty morning sky, and the horizon appears distant.
The greyish color in the poster is believed to symbolize the tough life in the hills, the tall tree represents the high aspirations of the mountain dwellers, and the horizon suggests unattainable dreams.
The woman’s gaze towards the mountains may symbolize leaving behind the mountain life in pursuit of dreams.
The poster hints that “Koshe Dhunga” will be a social drama, focusing on themes of scarcity, lofty dreams, and struggles. The production team has not yet shared further details about the film’s storyline.
According to the production team, the movie is slated for release in 2082.
Presented by Nardevi Films, the film will be backed by investors Previl Kandel and Hari Mahat, with Dinesh Khadka as the executive producer.
The cinematography will be handled by Babu Shrestha, while Surendra Paudel will edit the film. Music will be composed by Rhythm Kandel and Ashish Abiral.
Casting director Subalmani Sapkota will oversee the talent selection. The lead cast has not been disclosed by the production team yet.
Director Paudel shared, “We will reveal more details about the plot and the cast in the near future, but we promise that this film will win the audience’s hearts just like ‘Purna Bahadur Ko Sarangi’ did.”
The success of “Purna Bahadur Ko Sarangi,” which set the record for the highest box-office earnings in Nepali cinema, has raised expectations for “Koshe Dhunga.”
The director’s previous success has made this new film highly anticipated.
