A Letter to Mr. Avas Karmacharya

Dear Mr. Karmacharya,

Greetings.

I would like to request you not to take the following comments too personally.Be a sport and take it as a professional as well as healthy criticism.
This is in regard to the two articles you have written in the daily newspaper"Republica'. As you know better both of them are movie reviews, one being a disappointment for you ( as you have quoted), Nepali movie "Batch No. 16" and another one is your favorite Hollywood sexual romantic flick starring Natalia Portman and Ashton Kutcher, "No Strings Attached"(NSA).
When I read your first review regarding the Nepali movie, I thought you were too negative and critical towards the Kollywood movie. But today, when I read your review of NSA, I became sure that not only you are negative but you happen to be bias as well. Comparing both of your writings, it is so clear that you have no respect for someone trying hard to make a little difference in the Nepali movie industry. I am not saying that the movie Batch No.16 is an awestruck and awesome movie and had flaws but why is the effort not appreciated?You made a very harsh comment over the actress saying all she did was show her bare skin but you were okay and happy with the explicit comedy and scenes from NSA. You have not mentioned any one slip -up of NSA, which means that movie will score ten out of ten? or wait! Is it your personal view you are giving in your reviews?
As far as I can understand, reviews are supposedly written unbiasly without your personal opinions unless you are an expert or specialist in that field. Can you enlighten us with your expertise knowledge and experience? How many movies have you made so far? How many movies you have been a part of in the making? How many years of learning do you have in this field, to make such comments? Do you think that any Hollywood movie may that be A B C D, any grade is better than a Kollywood movie? These are few questions I would like to ask you and I hope that next time when you write, please remember, someone like me is WATCHING your style of writing as well and will criticise as badly as your own writings.
I will like to mention, that I am not related to any cast or crew members of any Nepali movie and this is absolutely my opinion about your bias writing.

"Pashupatinath le hajur lai satbuddhi pradan garun"

I remain here.
Sincerely and Critically,
Miss Gorgonhead.

  1. I haven't read his article but if he says that No Strings Attached was a good movie then he needs to re-examine his taste in movies.

    As for Kollywood, a lot needs to done to improve the standard of movies in Nepal and deriding it in articles is not going to help.
