    An organic movie

    Just watched this movie in youtube. Simply amazing. Being a Nepali and from Newar community, I was totally unaware about how rich culture Limbu/Subba communty have and how they care about their daughters, daughter in-laws and women as a whole. But after watching the movie I grew great admiration for this community and felt prouder on how diverse our country is. Nice plot, great direction, good performances from principal and supporting cast. Unlike other Nepali movies, very limited dialogue for principal star cast but their body language and expressions speaks volume for them. A different story with organic taste. Simply amazing. Thank you Upendra Subba ji for this movie.

    Poetic and Heartwarming

    The movie, directed by Upendra Subba, has a poetic touch. It beautifully captures the essence of "Palam," a cultural tradition in Nepal's Limbu community. It presents a story about the subtle struggles and love shared between a husband and wife. Free from unnecessary drama, the film feels authentic and true to life, with every character contributing meaningfully to the story. The portrayal of human emotions is highly relatable, as it reflects familiar aspects of Nepal's patriarchal society, such as male pride, dominance, and the tensions that arise when a woman leaves her husband's home to stay with her father.

    The title "Jaari" refers to a compensation that a woman's family must pay if she marries another man, a custom that points to a complex mix of freedom and responsibility for women. The film highlights that "Palam" is more than just singing and dancing; it embodies the essence of the Kirat people's culture, expressing love, wisdom, and the meaning of life. Interestingly, the main character initially dislikes "Palam" and lacks skill in its singing and dancing, but he eventually grasps its true essence and, in doing so, fights a way back to his beloved.

    In conclusion, "Jaari" tells a powerful story of cultural understanding and personal growth, exploring the significance of tradition, family, and love in a way that resonates deeply.

    A movie to remember

    Jaari movies carries cultural reflection of eastern Nepali community with time reference of couples of decade ago. The movie is simple but beautiful. Most strong aspect of this movie is acting. Dayahang rai and Miruna Nagar nail the lead roles. Supporting characters also talented. Most of scenes look natural. Overall it is a well made movie. Able to reflect life of rural mountains of Nepal. Movie also has some humour scenes in between.

    One thing to note is this film is not a mass entertainer genre. Movie does gets slow at some point. But overall experience is good. And well thought climax as well.
