The premiere of the movie 'Prakash', which was shot in Jumla, to be held in Tirkhu village

The premiere show of the Nepali story movie 'Prakash', which was shot in Jumla, will be held in Tirkhu, a remote village of Patarasi Rural Municipality here. Since the premiere of the movie Prakash, which will be screened from 10th of August, will be held in Jumla, the local residents are going to watch the movie for the first time in the village.

The film, which has a duration of almost 2 hours, was shot in Tirkhu village of Patarasi last year in the months of Chait and Baisakh, taking 45 days. For the premiere show, movie hero Pradeep Khadka and story writer Vikas Subedi reached Jumla today and held a press conference.

The film producer claims that 75 percent of the investment is secured by not showing the film Prakash. A budget of Rs 25 million has been invested in the production of the film. Story writer Subedi said, "The film is being screened simultaneously in dozens of countries including India, America, Japan, and Australia. There has been a good response from the song and the trailer. So far, 75% of the investment has been secured and ticket booking has been done in various countries. We are sure that this film will not be a loss." In addition, the money raised from the film screening from Australia will be provided for the educational development of Patarasi's Debt Relief High School.

In a press conference, Khadka said that for the first time, the premiere show of Prakash movie has started in Tirkhu village. He said, "The world premiere show of movies is often held in the expensive hall of Kathmandu with a red carpet and among celebrities. But since the film is based on the environment of Jumla, we are going to do the world premiere of Prakash at the loan-free school in Tirkhu village through a projector.

Writer Subedi said that the film emphasizes the struggle of a young man from Jumla to become a teacher, the discrimination between those who eat and those who eat, the preservation and promotion of the Jumli language, literature, culture and lifestyle. 60 percent local actors from Jumla have acted in the movie. Directed by Dinesh Raut, the film has Khadka, Diya Maskey, Renu Yogi, Prakash Ghimire and other actors in lead roles.
