    Sometimes we fight for what we believe regardless of the hard spectrum of life
    What worked: The makers deserve a special applaud for making a movie about less discussed but still prevalent issue. It's even more complicated topic in Nepalese society and this movie is an eye opener. Regardless of the quality of the move, it's a daring project. Diya and Saughat have often been applauded critical numerous times, but it's Nisha that shocked me as a viewer for her performance. It's a simple Nepali movie meaning a movie with very less glorified and dramatic scenes and dialogues, but deals with a very unspoken and neglected topic. The movie as a whole works regardless of its technical issues because if the overall project. It's still fair to say it's a fine Nepali movie. What did not work Firstly the technical issues with the movie. The movie failed to impress me by its ending though it was doing much better than the contemporaries because of the less stimulating and representation of the scene. I don't mean to spoil it but the movie would have better impact if the final scene was shot directly, maybe with different angle, close up or something to define what it meant. Also, some minor loopholes in the screenplay. Final verdict: recommended
