KATHMANDU: The theme video of the upcoming Nepali movie Janai Harayeko Bahun has been released.

On the occasion of Saraswati Puja, lead actor Bijay Baral and the production team shared a short video featuring dialogues and a song on their social media early Monday.

The video features a sketch of two friends having a heartfelt conversation before parting ways. The dialogue goes:

“Sathi, are you leaving the village too?”
“Dreams don’t come true without leaving home, my friend!”
“When will you return?”
“I don’t know. Oh, listen! I couldn’t even look at my mother’s teary eyes while leaving. Sometimes, visit her on my behalf, will you?”
“You’ll probably forget us, won’t you?”
“And my friend, tell my mother—don’t grow old until I fulfill my dreams!”
