The movie stars Priyanka Karki and Keki Adhikari in lead roles while Nisha Adhikari, Daya Hang Rai and Anoop Bikram Shahi will be seen in supporting roles. The trailer of the awaited movie How Funny was launched at Q’s Cinemas, Rising Mall, Durbargmarg amid a ceremony on Saturday. Directed by debutant Nilu Doma Sherpa, the film is a joint venture of Eyecore and A Tiny but Big Pictures Production. When asked about the expectations she has from her debut film, director Sherpa said that she hopes the film will not disappoint audiences. Malvika Subba, an executive producer of the film, was also present at the launch and shared that she is both nervous and excited for the release of the film and that waiting for the film to hit theatres as the post-production winds down was akin to waiting for a child to be delivered. Speaking at the event, Priyanka Karki said that this particular film is very special for her as the film empowers women
and is shown in a way that hasn’t been seen before in Nepali cinema. “The inquisitive quality of every woman portrayed in the film is what makes the film woman centric and empowers us,” she said. Keki Adhikari also shared the same views and said that the film was a wonderful experience for her as the majority of the cast and the production team were women and that the film will be shown from a woman’s point of view—a rarity for the Nepali movie industry.
