Regardless of pirated sites, sometimes you can find movies, including Nepali movies online on credible sites. These sites require the viewers to pay a certain amount of money, to buy the online version of the movie. However, people outside of Nepal, who want to watch a Nepali movie can easily visit websites, such as Nepalisite.com and 123Nepal.com. These are websites, which may have pirated the movies, and kept them online, but at least an audience can watch it for free. This attitude may be one of the reasons, why piracy cannot be easily controlled. For a student to want to watch Nepali movies, they do not want to pay for VCDs. Similarly, You Tube also allows for people to watch Nepali movies online.
Among other movies, you can watch online Nepali movie Ek Number Ko Pakhe. The movie has actors, Rajesh Hamal and Karishma Manadhar in the main leads, with Jal Shah, Ramesh Upreti, Nir Shah, Rabi Shah, and others supporting the script. This movie, directed by Kishor Rana became an instant hit at the time of its release. The film has Hamal playing the role of an innocent villager, who is often called “Pakhe” by others for his simple manners. What made the film such a success was the fact that, the movie emphasized on the beauty of innocence and the power of it. The title song of the movie was sung by all, during the time period it was screened. Its initial success makes it a must watch, especially if you are a fan of Rajesh-Karishma couple. You can watch this movie online on You Tube and on Nepal123.com, amongst other sites.
Now, if there is any other site that is accountable for promoting piracy, whether that is what the website’s purpose are, it is the You Tube. Without proper rules, it is simple to upload any videos on the site, and can be downloaded by many people. It is fine for the movie lovers to find their all time favorites online, but in the course, it disregards the makers and the actors of the movie. By not paying for the movies, we are hurting the artistic privileges of the filmmakers, and dishonoring the talent of the actors. It would be better for the film makers and the audience, if the concerned authority could regulate the piracy of Nepali movies online.
So, if you want to watch Ek Number Ko Pakhe, why don’t you buy a VCD of the movie? Rather than watching a movie that has been pirated online, it is better to watch it from a quality DVD. If you ask around or research on the internet, you can find out the places where you can get Nepali movie DVDs.
