Bhale Fight, propagating the rights of every woman

Bhale fightKathmandu /  September 24: Bhale Fight is releasing all over the country on September 25. Written and directed by Ashok Rai (Chap), the film stars Reema Bishwokarma, Baboo Bogati and Sandip Chhetri.

Please read what Bhoj Bahadur Gurung, who earlier directed Gurung films like ‘Sai Nhor Bai Mrusyo’, ‘Nhai Nho’, and ‘Akrodo’, has also produced ‘Sahasi’ and ‘Hum Jayega’ in the past has to say about the film.
How did you first come across the story?

I had screened my film ‘Hum Jayega’ in Australia last year. It was then that Ashok came to know about me and my company, Munal Film. He had the concept for the story in his mind for some years. He sent me an email and also sent the story which was written half in English and half in Romanized Nepali.

What in the story appealed to you?

‘Bhale Fight’ addresses the issue of how women in our society have to stay in the background after they marry. No matter how educated or talented the woman is, as a married woman she is expected to live within the boundaries of her house. The story is a reflection of our society but we hope that people take away the lesson that is in the film. It is especially crucial now when women empowerment is a burning topic.

The director is based in Australia. Did it hinder the creative process in any way?

It was a bit difficult and time consuming because of the geographical factor. After we finalized the script, I sent him video links of the possible actors we could work with. He would then go through each video before deciding the final actors. When I got everything else ready, he flew down for two months to work on the film. The post production was lengthy because I had to work with different people in different places and then collect everything and send it over to Australia. The speed of the Internet was most often very slow. Inevitably, the whole thing took almost twice as much time.

Having said that, I’m happy with the final product as it has surpassed my expectations. The actors have done a fantastic job. Reema is the star of the film. No one else could have done what she did in the film.

With many parts of the country in turmoil, are you ready for the loss of business it might bring?

The plan right now is to release it in Kathmandu and major cities around the country. Then we are also hoping to screen it in other places. But if the situation continues we will have to rethink our plan. This will affect our business obviously. Another plan is to screen it in UK and other countries. We’ve already had four shows in Australia. You either need good connections or your film has to be in great demand to be able to screen the films abroad.
