Ainaa Jhyal Ko Putali

To me, this felt like a gift from the director Sujit Bidari. A gift wrapped with the fragrance of nostalgia. As someone who spent a big part of his childhood reading Muna, and wanted his writing to be published in it but failed, i could totally understand how Bidhya felt. A stack of Muna magazine on my bookshelf know how much they've catered to my fondness for writing poems & stories today. This aspect of film made me deeply connect with it, like it was a life i was part of, a life i'll always cherish. The more i think about the film, the more it gets better. Everything about it.

It has a lot to offer, and it never forces any of those things, which was simply enough to portray the rawness it intended. A beautifully written & directed masterpiece where Sujit Bidari brings out the best in his actors, especially the child actors, allowing them to flourish the innocence they beared. From our leading protagonists to the characters who make minute presence on screen, everyone of them played their part so elegantly. I'm super happy that it stood up to the level i anticipated when i first watched it's trailer in awe.

Wow this is my first Nepali movie in theatre and honestly this is by far the best movie Ive ever watched that depicts realism. To be honest this movie depicts the reality of Nepali culture Chaupadi and how a poor family struggle to survive in rular village, the dream of young daughter and her responsibility and her culture is expressed beautifully. Hats off to funny young actor too. You should be quite familiar about Nepali norms on how they treat a daughter while she is in period. Excellent movie 🍿. Bit a humorous. Young boy actor acted beautifully.

I used to have a typical assumption that Nepali movie is not worthy but this movie broke my stereotype. No more unwanted and faltu dramas, no more faltu tension. This is authentic movie. You don't get bored while watching. Must watch movie......family and reality based movie beautiful acting, beautiful directing, wow such a beautiful composition script writing and storyline. You must watch this beautiful movie. While I was in theatre all the audience at the end clapped at once, There was beautiful response from other audience too,

Director Bidari has done an amazing job in conveying the story of two siblings who, although fight with each other, love each other unconditionally, and their mother, who is working hard to send her daughter for further education to a better place.

The story revolves around Bidhya and her younger brother Basanta. Basanta's character is fun and will take back to your childhood. His antics will make you laugh hard, while some moments make you adore him. Bidhya is a excellent student and an aspiring poet, who dreams to pursue further education and later publish her poems in monthly children's magazine (Muna - Very popular child magazine in Nepal before the Internet burst, I'm sure will make you nostalgic). Bidhya's mother fully supports this dream of hers.

The movie also portrays the society of a remote village decades ago. Friendships, picnics, fights, rituals, faces, characters, local movie theater, school, culture, practices, news, music, songs and what not!

This movie has many elements of nostalgia; the one that especially got me nostalgic was the Sankha Dhun of Radio Nepal (it literally used to be our alarm back in those days - every household with a radio used to start their day with this music).

The visual is too good! Most of the shots are amazing. The casting is amazing too (I got to know that most of the cast members were fresh, and some had never even been to a theater!). The child artists are too good and are an absolute delight.

There are many other things that I'd rather you find out on your own! I had fun, although there were some really emotional scenes too. The only problem in this movie is that it ends too fast and leaves us wanting for more.

Aina jhyal ko Putali is a must watch movie. Do go with your sister.

Amazing experience to be on the Grand Premiere of one of the most awaited cinema of recent times, 'Aina Jhyal ko Putali'. A great work by Sujit Bidari sir and the team.

All I did while watching was seeing myself on the projection throughout the cinema. A true reflection of 'my' story, 'our' story. No doubt that the makers have set an example of masterpiece with a simple and modest plotline.

From the character building to progression of setup, confrontation and resolution of each and every scenes is really impeccable. Admirable elements on emotion portrayal through visual storytelling.

Please do watch this beautiful piece of art at theatres to relive your childhood memories. Releasing on 24th Bhadra!

Amazing story, great acting and such a beautiful soundtrack. Everything is perfect. How can a movie be this beautiful! I became a fan of that little boy. Such a cute boy with genuine acting skills. He totally stole my heart. All other actors are a perfect cast for this movie. The story telling, the originality, the countryside visual, the emotional soundtrack god I was crying like a baby in theatre. I just couldn't hold my tears especially on the last scene. If you haven't watched this movie yet you're missing on a lot my friend. Do yourself a favour and just watch. I bet you'll come crying out of theatre. This is by far the best Nepali movie I've ever seen. God I loved it so much. Totally worth it. Very emotional, very original, a literal masterpiece. Hats off to the director man. Amazing work 👏
