The much-hyped and anticipated Nepali film, Prem Geet 2, is slated to open in over 80 screens around the country starting today. 

The film, a sequel to 2016’s hit musical Prem Geet, will trace, according to the producers, similar motifs as its predecessor, but this time the film is slated to bring onto screen a “multi-cultural story of two individuals from Nepal and Burma.” 

“The film is a multi-cultural story. Portraying a love story between two individuals—one Nepali and one from Myanmar—the film is also a love story between countries,” the film’s director Ram Sharan Pathak said. The film, according to Pathak, has been shot in various locations in Nepal, Myanmar, and Thailand. 

Speaking about the film, one of the film’s actors, Pradeep Khadka, said, “Prem Geet, the prequel, was essentially about how one lover is willing to sacrifice everything for love. While this one takes that narrative further. This sequel is about how even sacrifice might not suffice to save love sometimes.”

The film features debutant actor Santosh Sen, who is also the producer of the film.  Along with Sen, the film features actors Aaslesha Thakuri and Pradeep Khadka in lead roles.

Two days before the nationwide release of the film Prem Geet 2, the film’s producers organised a premiere show in Butwal on Wednesday.
