One of my little sisters gave me this shocking look when I said, “ No I have not watched that video”. Apparently, it was the most talked about thing this week in the Nepali community. It is Nepal Arbitrary channel's “What do you think of Anmol K.C as an actor?” on Youtube. Honestly, I have watched it 5 times before I started writing this reaction ( 215743 views including mine :D).

I mean, really? is that what giving opinion is all about, giving opinion needs to be negative about anyone and anything?? Why cant they be constructive and motivating. For instance, a public figure like Prinsa Shrestha saying I dont like him coz he is chocolaty boy is soo not cool. You definitely have the right of your opinion but being in that level I think you really need to be a little more politically correct. BTW Prinsa is also known for being unprofessional while she was Miss Nepal . Her titled was snatched from her and she had to apologize for her behavior. Now she flies for Etihad or some Mid Eastern airlines as a steward. I remember she was talking sooo much about social initiatives and social change and Nepal to be changed by women and you end up being a steward....SUPER OUCH. I am sorry but its called hypocrisy in my books.

Second I would like to talk about...and I am super giggling when I am writing this....(sorry but not sorry that I am in a very bitch mode)....Varun Rana...if you know this guy or not but apparently he had a movie with Namrata Shrestha which was a box of disaster. ….let me remember the name and get back to you....it was super flop that you dont even remember the name of the movie. And being from the industry you dont know Anmol K.C is soooooo fake. Really SOOO SOO fake. And apart from the industry, a little froggy told me that Varun is a big social butterfly.... I am sure he has come across Anmol so many times and honestly you pretending not knowing him proves that GUYS also get sooo jelo!!!...ROFL.

Third Prithu Baskota, the Nepali Cricketer,(80% of Nepalis dont even know who you are.... just for your record....LOL......) I was disappointed the most with his reaction. Being a sportsman, I really thought that he understands professionalism and how it feels to fail and reprise again. But shocking was his reaction. I think he needs to grow up and be more matured about giving judgements and should put himself in that position and look at it, how he would feel if this whole video was made when he couldnt score a run or is a failed player.

Rest of the people, one guy said “he is not even A actor” (An actor- correction please), “Teslai acting ta garna aaudaina” (I think this girl needs to learn how to respect people, even if she is criticizing them and he is not your buddy...Hello?), He tries to copy Ranbir Kapoor ( like seriously man! If he even copy's Ranbir for say 20%, he will get all the women you are chasing right now... and you dont stand this close to Anmol in that race....trust me....coming from a woman :)...). I really want to appreciate Alok Thapa, Nattu ,Sharad Shrestha and Raymon Das Shrestha who are honest and gave a very constructive criticism. Another guy in yellow tee shirt said something which I honestly believe, that we talk about improving the Nepali movie industry and when someone is doing good in whatsoever matter, we are so demeaning and soo demoralizing it is actually very disappointing.

Anmol K.C. might look like a Korean hero or his acting sucks big time. But trust me, he is drawing crowd to the halls. He is giving hits after hits. He is putting that glamour to the industry. Tell me ONE male actor, just ONE who had put the UMP factor to the film? I know Dayahang Rai or Karma or Saugat Malla are good actors but they are NOT glamorous.

Anmol is given a signing amount of 2million for a movie. Normally a Nepali movie is completed with that amount. So he is adding value to the work of the artists. Now people can think of being in the industry and work hard and earn a living. He is not a Papa's boy. Let me give you an example of Bollywood. Uday Chopra, son of the legend Yash Chopra couldnt make it big in the industry even he had such big banner at own home. Another example is Herman Baweja, son of Harry Baweja couldnt crack it.

His acting is not really good but he is not that bad. He will eventually improve if he wants to stay in the industry. He could be the Salman Khan of Nepal, dance around.....romance around and give a 100 crore movie?? Why not. Haters gonna hate anyway.

Lastly, Nepal Arbitrary, I know you are copying Being Indian channel but lookat their contents and how they are extremely entertaining and socially aware. You got what you wanted,views after views on youtube but honestly, you are becoming nothing more than Rishi Dhamala. You might wanna check your editing and your content next time :).

(Disclaimer:- I have watched Hostel and Jerry. Will be watching Gajalu next week.I would like to say that in anyway I am not related to Anmol K.C or his family in the furthest of the family tree and I am not a very huge fan of him. NO WAY i am paid by Anmol or his fans to write this but this is my honest reaction to how stupid, jealous and atrocious Nepalis can get to get attention.)

khan sahab....ma yesto comments ko reply dindina....sorry!

Hey Kiddo.....long time....thanks for replying.....haters gonna hate....and he is minting money :P....any kinda publicity is good publicity :P

I am one of those people that have managed to not watch a single Anmol KC's movie to this day. However, I feel like I just need to watch them now so that I can understand all the references that pop up everywhere related to Anmol and his acting.
@Ambrosia: For someone who hasn't seen any of Anmol's movie, where do they start? Any favorites?

Lol.... I am not a big fan but start from hostel and watch jerry and then rest :)
I am sure he will improve his acting

हेहेहे...छोटी मू बडी बात हजुर ....हिजो Ambyजुइले अनमोल संग चिकिमारी खेलेको सपना देख्नु भो कि क हो ...हेहेहे ...तेही भएर आझ एस्तो लेख ....माफ पाउ हाइ हजुर ....क्यरनी छाडा बोल्न मन लाउच बेला बेलामा ....

Nice piece of writing as always... Ambi.

I agree with you that these guys in the video are jelo.. and backbiting, and it is so fake that some of them pretend that they do not know who Anmol is. I agree with most of the people here that crowd is attracted by the glamour which he has gotten due to a good looking face and for being ' Bhuwan KC ko choro'.

Of course he may improve on his acting, and he will continue getting movies his dad being the producer. Other producers may also take him for few more years due to the bubble that is created by super hyped publicity. Sustaining in the industry for a long time as his dad did will not be easy.

@c864916: I believe you have not missed anything by not watching all of his movies. I think you will get what is in this guy after watching a movie. I watched 'jerry' and after few days watched another movie with similar genre 'prem geet', i was totally impressed by the prem geet in comparison to 'jerry' with respect to both the movie as a whole and the performance of lead actor and actress. They have a novice guy in 'prem geet' who did not have any experience, yet his acting is so natural, and their looks and personality fits so well on the characters.

@न्यास: तेही त भनेको नि न्यास .....मुजी बाउ हिरो भन्दै मा ...मुजी जो कोहि पनि Marlon Brando, francois truffaut wa Matin Scorcese हुन सक्छ र ....You have to work hard for that...You don't get respect, you earn it..आझ हाम्ले गु actorहरुको तारिफ गरेर चिक्ने भोलि aspiring artistहरु ले पनि तेइ मुजीको acting हेरेर सिको गरे भने जवाफ देहि को हुने ? सब मुजी तेती बेला गेडा हलाउदै बस्ने मुजी फिलिम हलमा ?...

Erm, whats so hypocritical about wanting social change and "ending up as a steward" ? Please explain.

say anything u want, anmol kc rules nepali boxoffice. and that is very encouraginf for our film industry.
for our industry to flourish ,we need commercial films and art /alternative films to flourish parallely. making 3-4 art films per years by nischal basnet or khagendra lamichane wont feed the actors,technicians and others related to this industry. commercial movies do exactly that;they attract audience to halls and entertain them creating livelihood for hall owners, distributers,artists and technicians alike .
no society has the same level of intellect and understnding of cinema so the audience for mass cinema and art films as we call them is broadly segregrated.so it is very good for our indistry that the likes of rajesh hamal, bhuwan kc, shiva shrestha and now anmol kc, nikhil upreti and aryan sigdel are still there to bring the audience to cinema halls .they have made a modest livelihood possible for hundreds of film professionals who are also working with nischal basnet and dayahang rai.
so guys appreciate anmol that a 22 years kid is increasingly displacing indian billboards and movies from nepali halls and reintroducing nepali movies to nepali audience.

Anmol KC?????? Who is he??????

am i bovvered,
I am sorry if you are her friend, family or fan......but a person with that caliber being a stewart....is a waste of brain....i am not disrespecting the job....launa flight ma feri hami eklai hunchau.....But she has not lived upto any of the expectations of fans like Myself.....I am sorry but I expected a lot from her......and if you think she will come back and will do social change after 5 years when she will earn.....we will see then :)
I respect beauty queens like Sugarika and Subin who are constantly working in social awareness and social issues :)

shiva_linga
Yea he is only 22.....and he got a long long way to go...to be honest...Bhuwan K.C is also not the WOW actor but he has his carisma back in yesteryears....So i think Anmol will grow as an actor!

I read the first paragraph and I realized its Anmol writing for himself. I have watched his movie Hostel..and few interviews following that. He is not a great actor but he's i guess okay for Nepali industry. There're actors worst than him. Conclusion: He could've fixed his tooth prior to entering cinema.

नास ब्रो, यो 'प्रेमगीत' हेर्दा त एस्तो भएछ कि , म त आफ्नो २० बर्से जवानीको यादमा पुगेछु \ अनि त एक्लै मुसुमुसु हास्दै हेरे :) कत्ति भाइबहिनी हरुले 'प्रेमगीत' को title song को cover गरेका छन् - राम्रो लाग्यो \ एसले नेपाली love story movie मा एउटा भए पनि ईटा थपेको छ है \

नाजिर हुसेनको एउटा interview हेरेको थिए, कत्ति राम्रो positive attitude भाको मान्छे रैछ | यो मान्छेको पनि राम्रो भबिष्य छ है \ तर अम्बी ज्यु ले भने जस्तो 'नाजिर लाइ हेर्ने भनेर theatre मा crowd जादैन ' भन्ने कुरो चै सहि हो है \

अब चै पल शाह को हेर्नु पर्ला :)

Ambrosia,you being a "creative writer" , i am seriously disappointed with your argument that i should be the aforementioned girl's family, friend, fan for objecting to your disparaging remarks about a profession. Of course i must be a family member to question how being a stewardess should contradict the very idea of wanting social change. How original! Yawn! So every one wanting social justice should be a member of naari krantikaari morcha. You object to people belittling Anmol but look at your work of art !! I know whats coming next. "Are you a a stewardess?"Enough said.

Jerry ma anmol kc ko acting to tika pahari ko chora, tyo heroine and worst of all tyo sathi huneko bhanda ramro thiyo. Tyo arko kta sathi huni chai ko acting chai natural thiyo.

Tyo kt sathi huni ko ta expression nai eutai jun situation ma pani..shehulk jasto

Stewardess bhayera naramro gareko jasto ta laagena. Maybe usko lagi miss nepal was a one time thing she tried and she won and she's fine to move on to what she wants to do.

Nas bro ko cinematic taste pani achamma ko raicha. Aba huda huda wada number 6 ra Premgeet matra ramro lagyo re. I can understand about WN6 :) but PG? I could not even watch for 15-20 min. Immensely predictable and tai na tui ko. Dreams pani herna sakina.

Bro le badhsaalaa hereko ho? Technically superb chha ni. Tyo movie herda chai malai bhitra bata kuri kuri jasto bhaena hai aru nepali movie herda bhae jasto.

maile already few herisake bro. Memories of Murders babbal lagyo malai.

am_i bovvered,
I in no way was trying to demean her but i am just saying being a public figure....there are its perks and restrictions.....I not saying being a stewardess is wrong .....its a highly paid job....specially in the international agencies.....but I am saying....atleast dont demean someone else as well....and she is not a Miss Nepal anymore...i was one of the person who was supporting her in the pageant for the title...I thought she will win coz I felt to confidence in her and the capability....but with time it was getting so disappointed...from tht tiff with hidden treasure and stuff...I know it is her choice to be what she wants to be....I respect Ishani coz she has lived with her project of beauty with a cause and so did Sugarika....maybe I agree with shahi baba....Miss Nepal was just one time thing....!!
