Nepali Congress Leader's Film 'Bigul' Set for Nationwide Release, Focuses on Political Awareness and Good Governance

Kathmandu. The film 'Bigul' (Bugle), produced by Nepali Congress leader Dinesh Koirala, is set to be released across the country starting from Falgun 1. The film primarily focuses on the issues of political awareness and good governance. Koirala states that the film 'Bigul' was produced as an effort to inform citizens about political awareness and state policies.

'Only when state policies are correct will the public benefit, and if they are wrong, the common people will feel the direct impact; thus, we aim to raise political alarms through the film,' he said. 'It is especially dedicated to the activism of the 'Gen Z' generation, which has been active recently.' He claims that the story addresses corruption, good governance, and nepotism, and he believes the film aligns exactly with the demands recently raised by the youth.

Clarifying the reason for venturing into film production while remaining active in politics, he expressed his belief that the medium of film can convey messages to a larger audience more quickly and effectively than political platforms. He stated that the film is being released now to convey the message that during elections, citizens should rise above party lines and choose good leadership.

The movie, whose shooting began last Baisakh, incorporates both commercial and message-oriented aspects. Koirala mentioned that he is advancing the film not primarily for profit but as a form of social responsibility and a campaign for political reform. He says, 'Along with political subject matter, songs and music from various genres have also been included for entertainment.'

The film, directed by Ramesh Koirala, features prominent roles by Benisha Hamal, Naren Khadka, Neer Shah, Ramesh Budhathoki, Binod Neupane, Shishir Bangdel, Hemant Budhathoki, Geeta Adhikari, Rabindra Khadka, and newcomer Meera Pandit.

The film, distributed by Kafiya Films and Shree Buckets Entertainment, features music by Congress leader Bishwa Prakash Sharma, Arjun Pokhrel, and Manoj Chaulagai.
