blog

By A Staff Reporter,Kathmandu, Apr. 17: The trailer of Bhuthan was released here on Tuesday. 

Binod Paudel is the director of ‘Bhuthan’ in Nepali, whose English version is  ‘The World’s Happiest Man’. 

The three-minute-long trailer presents a film based on a social narrative.

 The film tries to portray the story of Bhutanese refugees who have reached America from Bhutan, Nepal and India.

The trailer depicts the efforts of an elderly person, in the latter part of his life, to return from America to Bhutan. It hints at a cinematic tale of the struggles of having to reside in a foreign land after having deeply rooted one’s life in their homeland.

Even though material comforts have been achieved in a foreign land, the trailer indicates that the absence of religion, values, and culture can take its toll. 

The impact of family disputes over religious and cultural values is also portrayed in the trailer.

 Senior actor Hari Bansha Acharya plays the lead role in the film, while the other cast includes Pooja Chand Lama, Richa Ghimire, Bhuwan Pyakurel, Aditi Pyakurel, and Kaushila Khanal Karmacharya from Nepal, Anuradha Majumder from India, and world-famous Hollywood actor Bruce Dern from America.

 This is the first Nepali film made under Hollywood’s SAG-AFTRA guidelines, with some Hollywood technicians working on the project.

The film is set to release on April 25.

Its executive producers are Kaushila Khanal Karmacharya, L.N. Adhikari, Apar Shrestha, Ramesh Bhatt, while Rajendra Thakurathi,  Amitabh Joshi and Abeeral Thapa are the producers.
