We were able to wear sandals, but even the children dancing in the background worked very hard not to have that facility,&#8221; she said. <\/p>\n<p> Recalling that she had to work even when she was ill, she took that experience as an important memory of her film journey.<\/p>\n<p>He believes that the audience should love Nepali films more. <\/p>\n<p> &#8216;The audience should love Nepali films in the same way as they love films outside.&#8217; Our Nepali films should also go out. Nepali products should get international market,&#8221; she said. <\/p>\n<p> She said that new artists need opportunities and the support of the audience to further expand the Nepali film industry.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We are now in the early stages. A generation younger than us is also coming. There should be scope for them as well. For that, the audience should support Nepali films,&#8221; she said. <\/p>\n<p> Bishwakarma, who believes that success can be achieved with continuous hard work, urged the audience to love the movie by watching it.<\/p>\n<p>Binod <\/strong> Shrestha, who is playing the role of a villain in the movie, said that he played a negative character in &#8216;Lajjavati&#8217;.<strong><\/p>\n<p> He said that he was given a role in the film on the basis of his introduction to director Raj Bahadur Sane&#8217;s serial.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I worked in the serial for about two years. During that time, I got a chance to meet Raj Bahadur Sane sir. I also worked in his serial. Then he might have cast me for the character,&#8221; he said. <\/p>\n<p> He said that it was easier to enter the character of the film as he had played a negative role even in the serial.<\/p>\n<p>He feels that the workshop conducted before the filming has made him more confident. <\/p>\n<p> He said that his character in the film is in the role of a college student and there is a social aspect in it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My role is a negative character. I look like a college boy. There&#8217;s a social character as well,&#8221; he said. <\/p>\n<p> Shrestha said that the experience of working in the movie was very enjoyable for him.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, &#8216;Lajjavati&#8217; is a love story as well as action and entertainment. <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;This is a love story movie. There&#8217;s action, too. It has become a very entertaining movie. There is also a message aspect,&#8221; he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Love, family and Nepaliness<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> If the artistes are to be believed, even though love is at the center of &#8216;Lajjavati&#8217;, its story is not limited to the relationship between lovers and lovers. They say that the film covers family, parents&#8217; love, brotherly relationships, sacrifice, struggle and social environment. <\/p>\n<p> Love is presented from different angles in the film.<\/p>\n<p>For some, love is more than attraction, while for others, it is a feeling of being connected to family. The production team claims that this diversity is being tried to portray it on the screen.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p> According to the actors, another important aspect of the film is Nepaliness.<\/p>\n<p>They believe that the general Nepali context, the lifestyle of the characters and the relationship are connected to the story, so the audience can connect with the story. <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;<strong>Laj <\/strong> javati&#8217;, which is claimed to include love, family, struggle, Nepaliness and entertainment, is going to be released on August 29. <\/p>\n<p> Although love is centered around love, the real impact of &#8216;Lajjavati&#8217;, which claims to be connected to family, struggle, Nepaliness and entertainment, will be decided by the audience&#8217;s reaction after the screening. The construction team is currently busy with the final phase of publicity with the goal of securing an investment of around two crores.<\/p>\n<p>Now after August 29, it has become a matter of waiting for the film to make a place in the hearts of the audience and at the box office. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/photo-4_cc5a0f18-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/photo-3_9226cebc-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/photo-2_da07ce6c-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/photo-1_afed661b-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;Lajjavati&#8217;: A story of love, family, and Nepaliness Akanksha Dhami, Nepal News Bank Kathmandu.
