The posters for the much-anticipated film ‘Laaj Sharanam’, produced by the Sakkigoni team, have been unveiled.
Released to mark the English New Year, the three posters feature most of the film’s main cast, with five characters prominently highlighted. Among them, four are recognizable, but one remains unidentified.
The first poster depicts Harish Niraula (Kakrozh), Bijay Baral, Sagar Lamsal (Bale), and Arjun Ghimire (Pande) inside a coffin. They appear to be observing something with a mix of surprise and amusement. This could symbolize the imagined perspective of what one might see after death.
The second poster shows a man standing atop a coffin, holding a balance scale. The scale weighs Yarsagumba against gold biscuits, with the gold outweighing the Yarsa. In the background, mountains and a village are depicted. This imagery reflects how greed for wealth and compulsion can lead people to their demise.
In the third poster, Harish and Bijay are featured. Bijay is shown blowing a conch made of human bones while riding on Harish’s back. This suggests a theme of revenge, hinting that Bijay’s character may hold significant influence in the story.
The posters collectively indicate that ‘Laaj Sharanam’ tells a serious story in an entertaining manner. However, the plot itself remains a mystery, fueling curiosity about the film.
One of the most awaited films of the year, ‘Laaj Sharanam’ is set to release on Falgun 14, coinciding with the festival of Maha Shivaratri. Directed by Kumar Kattel (Jigri Bro), the film features a stellar cast, including Mukunda Shrestha, Bijay Baral, Prashant Tamrakar, Mahesh Tripathi, Arpan Thapa, Renu Yogi, Mala Limbu, along with Sakkigoni stars such as Arjun Ghimire (Pande), Sagar Lamsal (Bale), Harish Niraula (Kakrozh), Priyana Acharya (Munny), Babin Rai (Galfne Baje), Ram Bhajan Kamat, and Kamalmani Nepal (Khupika Bau). The cinematography is handled by Sudip Baral.
Produced under the banner of JPT Creation, the film’s production team includes Naveen Shrestha as the producer and Ram Naresh Shah and Srijana Khadka as co-producers.
