Movie Review – Mahasush

Nepali movie ‘Mahasus’ was released all over the theatres of Nepal on August 16, 2013. ‘Mahasus’ is produced by Kalyaan Ghimire and directed by Nawal Nepal . The movie features Aryan Sigdel, Keki Adhikari, Benisha Hamal, Nir Shah, Rashmi Bhatta, Apsara Ghimire, and Rabindra Khadka in lead role. ‘Mahasus’ is advertised as a complete clean and family entertainer movie.
   
Story

‘Mahasus’ is a love story of a business man Bisow (Aryan Sigdel). Biswo is a successful businessman and Bidhya (Benisha Hamal) is his secretary. Bisow proposes Bidhya for marriage and she accepts. But the tragedy starts when Bisow knows Bidhya’s medical condition. Both of Bidhya’s kidneys had failed and she the doctors had estimated her to live a maximum of six months. To save Bidhya’s life, a poor and innocent girl named Gauri (Keki Adhikari) donates her kidney. After the incident, the love story gets new turn when Bisow provided support to Gauri and Bidhya started to get jealous of Gauri. I don’t want to kill excitement of watching movie by revealing what happens next to Bidhya and Biswo’s love story. It’s worth knowing the story by going to theater to watch the movie.

Strength and Weakness

In contrast to the current trend of sex-oriented movies, ‘Mahasush’ is a relief in being a neat and clean movie that can be truly be watched with family. All the dialogues and scenes are clean and don’t make one uneasy while watching with family members. The love story movie is smooth and revolves around a family.

The cinematographer, Divya Raj Subedi, has done an appreciable work and it is one of the plus points of the movie. Suresh Adhikari’s music is good although, none of the songs might be remembered for long. The dialogues are simple and are also funny at some places. Background score by Alish Karki is also good.

Nawal Nepal’s screenplay is focused mostly to city-dweller audience. Although the movie is a simple love story, the director has failed to impregnate emotions in the right place. For example, a girl dying in six months, Bidhya, doesn’t share such an important aspect of her life to her soon to be married boyfriend. There are few other unrealistic scenes in the movie that look out of place.
Star Cast

‘Mahasus’ is the love story of Bisow, a character played by Aryan Sigdel. This role is similar to the one Aryan Sigdel had done in his previous movies like ‘I am Sorry’. Aryan has done justice to the character he has done in the movie. Benisha Hamal has also done justification to the character of Bidhya. Benisha has shown that she has a lot to give to the Nepali movie industry in her upcoming projects.

The main attraction of the movie is Keki Adhikari’s performance. Keki’s performance is one of the best parts of the movie and she has done an awesome job. Keki has done such a good performance that whether one likes the movie or not but, there is a high chance that Keki’s performance will get a thumbs up. Nir Shah in the role of a doctor and the father of Bisow has also done good job, as usual.

Conclusion

‘Mahasus’ is an average love story movie. The movie could have been above average if the director had avoided some mistakes. ‘Mahasus’ is a movie to watch with family. If you like Keki Adhikari in any way, you shouldn’t miss her performance in the movie.

Let m not ruin your movie watching experience by telling who will be the Visa Girl’s choice and how they compete with each other.

Strength and Weakness

The debut director Prachanda Man Shrestha has tried and succeeded to present a nice story in a very simple way in ‘Visa Girl’. The movie plays safe by delivering the story in a simple way and it feels pleasant to know that, no irrelevant stories or characters are added to elongate the movie.

The background music, music, camera work, editing and location are appreciable and pleasant.  Every scenes follow the main story-line and the story of three individual boys and their love story in presented in a balanced way.

Talking about weakness, ‘Visa Girl’ doesn’t have masala stuffs desired by rural viewers. Although the movie isn’t bad, a little more of entertainment stuffs wouldn’t have harmed. The screenplay and dialogues could also have been made a bit more effective.

Star Cast

Richa Sharma in the role of Stuti, the Visa Girl, has done very good job presenting the character.  Richa looks cute and effective in presenting herself as a NRN. Binay Shrestha plays the role of Aditya, a teacher dreaming to go to the USA. Binay has performed well in his role, as usual. Debut actor Raymon Das Shrestha has also done an appreciable role as Riyaj, a guitarist and a singer. In the role of Sandesh, Karma is seen as a photographer and he has done a great job in his role.

Reema Biswakarma , Saloni Raj Bhandari and Menuka Pradhan are seen in supporting roles and they have also performed well. One of the best parts of ‘Visa Girl’ is that all the actors have given life to their characters and feel natural in their roles.

In addition to the characters mentioned, we can see singer Nima Rumba, model Sahana Bajracharya and actresses Nisha Adhikari and Keki Adhikari on short roles.

Conclusion

In overall, the director Prachanda Man Shrestha’s has been successful in bringing out a simple and entertaining movie, on his first attempt. ‘Visa Girl’ is about the youths of Kathmandu and the youths in city areas would certainly like it. The audience out of valley however might find the movie boring.

I can predict the movie to do good business and but, I don’t see it breaking any previous records of hit movies. I would suggest you to go and watch ‘Visa Girl’ to enjoy a simple story presented in a pleasant way. In the movie, you can witness good works of all the crew members. There aren’t much entertainment stuffs so, keep the expectation low.

Thumbs Up to the whole crew members for an effective team work on brining a good movie.
