The comedy teleserial 'Sakkigoni' has a popular character, 'Zigri'. When that character suddenly disappeared from the regular screen, regular viewers asked, 'Zigri khoi?'

In the comments of the content broadcast on YouTube, the demand started, 'Jigri wanted .'

Jigri was not lost. Sitting in secret on a hill above the city, Kumar Kattel was writing the story of Karnali. He was drawing a picture of Karnali smiling with hardly any eyes.  He wanted a

– Karnali should laugh.

But when he reached the festival going on in the same place, Jigri, who was ready to laugh on the stage, was struck by a provocative question, "Where is the laughter here and where can I laugh?" Say .'   He went on a journey entrusting the teleserial to the benefactors of the

team. He saw the absence of the state in Karnali, which was known only as poverty and suffering.

'There is a lot of potential here . Why not try to show it . Karnalis  They are not poor themselves, the state has made them poor,' Kumar shares his feelings.

Rumors of Kumar and Arjun Ghimire's team making a film, who have been busy in serials for a decade, slowly spread . Some people were prejudiced and said, 'What kind of film will serial people make?'

They were sure, 'The film will answer that.'

The film was the path that Kumar decided in life. From long journeys  He is standing close to his dream for the first time. As the release of the film approaches, Kumar returns to his struggling days.

A young man studying in college spends his time thinking about movie stories  . 'Nepali Cinema  I used to watch it, but I couldn't understand it . I thought - I can make better than this,' he says, 'I used to watch Bollywood-Hollywood movies, and I wanted to work on our original identity.' After

plus two, he went to UK for studies. Even when he was living in Britain, the scenes of the film used to run in his eyes . As Huthuti grew, he thought, 'Now it's time to go to Nepal and make a film.'

When he returned to Nepal, Kumar had stories that could be made into a movie. Many people believe in this story. believe . I will make a film,' maybe he was thinking this even while he was waiting at the airport .

However, the film field was not what he expected. There was no situation, the possibility of bringing the story he thought to the scene . Even while narrating the story to the producers, Kumar was confident, 'Now you will accept the new thing in Nepal.' It takes more time to make a film like this here. After that, the order of telling different stories started to increase. Hope is getting thin . Finally, without letting his hope die, Kumar thought innocently, "One day it will happen". But it will take more time.

is not a possibility in the immediate film. Kumar also needed this support to struggle in the field of film . He approached many media and agencies to work in the serial. Even till 12 o'clock in the night, I used to meet people hoping to get a job, but I couldn't meet them. After that, I used to come to the dera of Chabhil while walking,' he remembers. 

Every day of Kumar started with excitement. It was thought that someone would be found today. Those who picked up the phone used to say tomorrow and the day after tomorrow,' he said. As the night fell, his hope also fell. While he was sleeping in the tent starving, he would say, "One day or one day, something will happen." 

But I didn't know - when will it happen?

didn't know - who believes ?

So far, many people have thought, 'Being the brother of Dhurmus, so much struggle?' These questions have not come up. But he didn't want to stand on his brother's side .

"I will come if I am worthy, I will not shine for two or four days by selling my brother's name," was his stance. He wanted to stand in his own world after struggling as much as his brother. 

More than 5 years have passed since I returned to Nepal . His cycle was not over . The time of living in poverty lasted for many days, ``even if I could eat one bite, I would run for a week.''

Journalist Vidur Khatiwada used to say to Kumar sympathetically, "It's not what you think, brother". I have started to love you. You also have to live . You have to find another way.' I'm fine with him . I will meet him . Meet and talk.' 

Suddenly, a dim light of hope lit up . He walked three corners to meet Arjuna . But the road jam swallowed the appointed time . He was stung by the fear that even a possibility would break out . Something was about to happen. Meanwhile, the jam also became an obstacle . All my roads are closed. Maybe this has also been closed,' he thought tiredly in the crowd of heavy vehicles. 

Dhanan, Arjuna has been waiting for him . Arjun looked positive in the first meeting. He said, 'Let's do it together.'

After that Arjun disappeared. The phone did not answer even for two-four days . He was sitting in a brother's room in Shantinagar feeling depressed for two days . At that time, a hopeful phone call came, 'Where are you? Arjun dai told him to come to the shooting site anyway.'

Then Kumar ran to the set of 'Sisnupani Jhyammai'. It was the sixth part of the teleserial . Kumar joined Arjun in writing and directing from that episode.

'After I left, it was said that we should go in a new way from the seventh part . From the seventh part, we have created a frame for Dhature and Arjun's characters. We got a very good response till the 18th episode,' he says.

Work stopped after the 18th episode . The dummy of 'Bhadargol' became . But even after finishing the editing, it lasted for a year . After a year, 'Bhadargol' took the rhythm again. The footsteps of Kumar and Arjun, who have moved forward since then, have not turned back yet. From 'Bhadargol' to 'Sakkigoni', not only their writing and direction, but every character including Jigri and Pande became popular . So much so, even if it was not seen in an episode, it would be searched for, ``Jigri Khoi.'' While enjoying the

teleserye, it garnered many compliments. Achieved an achievement that has never been achieved . But what he had traveled for was missing somewhere. He started thinking, "Is this the only success"? This was the second option. Where did the first option disappear?'

Then he returned to the film journey.

The word written in the story was not easy to visualize . It was a challenge for Kumar to reach Karnali with a big team. Actor Mahesh Tripathi fell while working at a height of 4600 meters. He was immediately rescued below . There was a situation where Kumar himself collapsed.

'We were working with doctors and oxygen. But we were on the brink of life and death,' Kumar remembers, 'not enough oxygen.' The fear that if you fall asleep, you will fall asleep.' 

Many nights spasms . However, the story had to be drawn. Had to prove . When the shooting was over, Kumar felt a heavy weight. The mind became cold. He thought, 'He who dared to carry heavy . We had to carry that, we carried it.' Audiences are waiting for Kumar's new Koseli . Written/directed by him, 'Laaz Sharanam'

will be available to the general audience from Wednesday. Koseli may be sweet to some, bitter to some. He can confidently say, 'But everyone will accept it.'
