The upcoming Nepali film ‘Shivansh,’ scheduled for release on Falgun 1, will feature the voice of renowned Indian singer Kailash Kher, the production team has announced. The film includes Kher’s rendition of the powerful devotional piece ‘Shiv Tandav Stotram.’
The announcement was made alongside the release of a new official poster, which showcases the film’s lead characters in intense and emotionally charged expressions.
In the poster, Praveen Khatiwada appears in a fierce stance holding a knife, while Tej Giri is seen in an angry expression. Rusa Nyaupane looks on seriously, and Bimala Limbu appears with a sense of shock. Meanwhile, Vikash Joshi is depicted shouting while holding a damaru (a small drum associated with Lord Shiva).
