/ by Shashi Raj Parajuli
With lots of hope and expectation that raised from the trailer, Utsav is released inside Kathmandu valley only from today. Utsav postponed its release outside Kathmandu valley due to lack of availability of theaters. Utsav is written and directed by Kumar Bhattarai starring Saugat Malla, Gaurav Pahari, Sanjog Koirala, Sandip Chettri, Menuka Pradhan and Prakriti Shrestha in lead role. Movie is produced by Shekhar Koirala.

Story:

Utsav is the story of four friends Zimba, Kaji, Urvashi, Nisha and Naren. They all study together and they share every moments of their life together. Zimba is passionate on music and singing. He plays at a pub in Thamel every evening. Kaji and Urvashi are like Tom and Jerry, always fighting on small things. Naren falls in love with Nisha. Their life goes with full fun and enjoyment. When Zimba’s mother passes, he takes the responsibility of his step brother. Zimba’s step brother had a blood cancer and to save him for longer time he should manage atleast ten thousand per day for his treatment. His father doesn’t support him so he sells his composition to one rich guy named as Raunak who wants to become popular. While having fun Naren satires Zimba about his personal life due to which they had a fight and Zimba gets out of contact. Kaji also leaves for America and Nisha and Naren gets married. When Kaji returns from America after two years he finds Zimba’s songs becoming blockbuster but it has been sung by someone else. So he tries to find out the mystery behind this and search Zimba. Will he be able to find out his friend Zimba? Where is Zimba and what happened to him and his step brother? To know all these you have to go to the theater and watch Utsav.

What’s Good:

Engaging screenplay, Kumar Bhattarai’s direction, actors performance which are superb, music which will please your ears, colorful cinematic experience, many scenes in the movie which are impressive, every characters are well justified.

What’s Bad:

Almost nothing. Though few scenes in post interval could have been edited which may feel movie is too lengthy.

Utsav Review – Last Word:

Two important things I would like to add on Utsav:

1. One of the important drawbacks of Nepali movies is on screenplay of the movie. The only thing that disappoints audiences is due to the screenplay of the movie which doesn’t engage audience. After Loot, Utsav is the movie which has such a wonderful screenplay where every characters are well justified and adds something to the movie.

2. Second important thing to add is about the release of Utsav. Movie is released in such time when there is so much crowd of movies at theater which is one of the strong negative point for such a good movie that deserves to be watched by the audience. And Kohinoor is still doing superb business which postponed the release of Utsav outside valley which will minus the business of movie to some extent.

Kumar Bhattarai has presented movie in such a way that it will hold you inside the theater throughout the movie. You will get colorful cinematic experience which will please your eyes. Another strong point of the movie is the performance of the actors. Everyone has done brilliant job. Saugat Malla, Gaurav Pahari have done superb work whereas Sanjog Koirala has a good potential to grow as a lead actor of Nepali movies. Child actor Samyak Tamrakar has done good work. At second half movie could have been edited to shorten at some places. Movie is sure shot to be loved by the audiences. But business of the movie will depend upon the availability of the theaters and also Kohinoor’s ongoing attack on business may affect somehow.

Celebrate Utsav with your friends and family. A purely entertaining movie which has engaging screenplay, good music, good performance by actors which is sure to win the hearts of audiences. A must watch movie. Don’t miss.
