The official trailer of the much-awaited Nepali film ‘Riyal Ringet’, set to release on Shrawan 16, has been released on the occasion of Shrawan Sankranti. The trailer offers a moving glimpse into the painful realities faced by Nepali youth in foreign employment.
Some of the scenes in the trailer are emotionally intense, depicting Nepali workers being captured by terrorists. One striking moment shows actor Pramod Chaulagain sending a video message from captivity that gets broadcast on Nepali television.
