The new Nepali film Unko Sweater, starring Bipin Karki and Miruna Magar, has had a successful start at the box office. After a quiet period following the release of Anjila, this film has brought excitement back to cinemas.
Earns Over NPR 1.37 Crore in Just Two Days
As per official box office figures, Unko Sweater earned NPR 1 crore 37 lakh 69 thousand gross on Friday and Saturday. This strong opening has impressed industry observers.
Strong Response in Kathmandu and Eastern Cities
The movie enjoyed good occupancy in Kathmandu Valley and eastern parts of Nepal during the first two days. The western region saw relatively lower turnout, but overall reception was encouraging.
Set in the Hills of Eastern Nepal
Directed by Nabin Chauhan, Unko Sweater is a love story set in the hilly regions of eastern Nepal. The story explores inter-caste, cross-border romance while highlighting the lifestyle and culture of the Limbu community.
Competing Film Jaar Underperforms
Another film, Jaar, which released on the same day, did not perform well at the box office and struggled to attract audiences.
Buddha Jayanti Holiday Could Boost Earnings
With Monday being a public holiday for Buddha Jayanti, Unko Sweater may see a further rise in ticket sales. Many believe the holiday could help the film reach the NPR 2 crore milestone soon.
