Nepali film industry and cinema halls at odds: Everything you need to know

On Thursday last week, the Nepal Motion Picture Association declared to close cinema halls across the country on Monday, as a form of protest. The planned closure was reportedly a symbolic protest against the decision announced by the Film Producers’ Association to release new films only on Fridays.

Whereas the closure did not materialise due to negotiations held after that, Nepali film industry stakeholders are still at odds over different issues. This has affected the entire industry as everyone is left with their own complaints.
