Kathmandu. Dayahang Rai’s next film is releasing after a gap of 6 months. The movie ‘Karsang’ based on the story of the Sherpa community, in which he acted, is ready to be screened on December 26. Dayahang, who previously played the characters of Rai, Limbu, Gurung, Magar and Thakali communities, has depicted the role of the Sherpa community.
In Dashain, films of poor craft were super hits at the box office. Dayahang has its own perspective on this. How much universal appeal is there in the story of ‘Karsang’? What ease is there for the actor while acting in the story of the community? Online journalist with actor Dayahang Rai in this dimension Vishnu SharmaA brief dialogue by:
‘carsang movie whoin based on
‘Karsang’ is about faith. It is generally understood to mean becoming a ‘white god’. The Sherpa community has another belief about Karsang in the village called Yarsa. This is the story of a Sherpa community stuck in that belief. The joy of working on a community story is that you can understand their value system. This is the beautiful thing. Karsang is a short life journey of a family.
rye, organhey but, Gurung, After Thakali, you have played the character of the Sherpa community. In what sense is ‘Karsang’ different?
There are Buddhists, Tantrics and Bon believers in the Sherpa community. This is the story of a family where the character believes more in Bon and Jhankri. Often Buddha and Jhankri are also needed when doing any method within that community. There is no sacrifice in Buddha but there is talk of sacrifice in Zhankri. This is just a general thing that I understand.
‘What is the element of universal appeal in Karsang?
The most important thing is the belief system towards ‘Karsang’. People of any place believe in one thing or the other. Karsang’s belief in this is universal. Just like the West considers someone to be God. Another thing – the matter of transmission. This is the story of a low class family where there is knowledge. That knowledge is recognized only socially, but it is the story of his experience when it is not recognized professionally or does not match the current changes. I feel that now as soon as you say social drama, it has universal appeal.
Did director Naveen Subba worry during the casting of ‘Gaon Inya Bato’ whether your stardom would become an obstacle in portraying your character? ‘carsangin How was this thing?
The director has his own thoughts. Yam Sherpa’s feature is the first. He kept telling me that the character he thought was like this. Maybe it can affect the director. They call me brother and respect me. Respect may have been in some places where I was not satisfied. It must have affected him somewhere.
I tried to understand more things than my star, that knowledge would be there. This is also a dangerous thing, when we think about it. It can be proven wrong to appeal to the mass after taking such a person. But I personally cannot be obsessed with a character. I need the direction of the director.
Your film was not released for 6 months. Looking at the next lineup you busy It seems to happen. Now how do you arrange the lineup of the film?
I don’t feel like I’m taking a break. In between I went to Busan. Continue working in films. Even now, in the third week in Hong Kong, ‘The Road to the Village’ is running in Chinese subtitles. The number on display will look like a break. But I haven’t even taken a break, work is still going on. This year I can do some films that I promised earlier. After that, I thought that I will work for myself in the future.
You can have ‘Mahabhoj’ in January. Then there is the film promised last year. His home production films like Bansuri are being shot. There are five films next year.
Like some film commercials during Dashain walk as This movie box Is Office Performance trying to indicate something about audience psychology?
Looking at this year’s figures, a lot of films have raised investment since Baisakh. About 13-14 films must have reached. This is a record in Nepali film history. This is a happy thing. Now there is a kind of enthusiasm and energy in people. When there is financial manipulation in people. People are happy.
Movies, art and sports come only after money. Running a film means about 500 million. This flow of people means that other areas will also move forward. Not only here. In two to three months, a market worth 500 million was operational. This is the happy thing about Nepali films.
Film box Hit the office beThere is also a concern that weak films will be released in Craft.
Even if we look at the market, we are using more of the poor things. I have said it many times. Not all things sold are good. Narayan Dhakal had said that if all things sold were good, then plastic utensils would sell the most. In art, this thing should be accepted critically. We must be honest. When we work, we should prioritize content over sales.
What is the story of Nepal? We should also look at how the face of Nepali films will be when they reach the foreign market. Many critics and some producers think that way. Such films are also needed to create atmosphere in the market. There should be a balance on both sides. It makes Nepali films better.
