‘Unlike in the past, the film industry today is more open to experimenting’

Arjun Karki, popularly known as Swami, shares his years of experience working in Nepal’s film industry, how he ended up becoming an editor/colourist, and what got him involved in starting the Pame Film Festival.

Born in Ramechhap, Arjun Karki has tried every single work involved in the filmmaking process only to find himself enclosed in the four walls of post-production. After completing a bachelor’s degree in computer engineering from Pokhara, Karki started pursuing a career in coding and graphic designing, but when he started cultivating an interest in filmmaking, the world around him subsequently changed.
