A ‘mahajatra’ indeed

The film offers a humorous yet insightful perspective on the everyday struggles and complexities of human existence.

Four years after his film ‘Jatrai Jatra’ succeeded at the box office, Pradip Bhattarai has returned with another addition to the ‘Jatra’ franchise, ‘Mahajatra’. The smooth storyline and sincere acting makes the film worth watching. The screenplay recognises the contemporary issues of Nepal, ranging from the Kathmandu Metropolitan City’s street vendor rage to the sun and paisa kanda. Though the plotline seems a bit redundant in the second half due to stretched themes, its comedic bits effectively enamour the audience.
