Kathmandu — The official teaser of the Nepali film Malati Mangle, set for release on Baisakh 25 (May 8), has been released. The film is produced and presented by singer Ram Krishna Dhakal and hints at an emotional rural love story.
Released via OSR Digital, the teaser portrays the journey of Vijay Baral and Barsha Raut from their meeting to marriage, highlighting themes of love, trust, and suspicion.
The teaser features an emotional promise by Vijay to Barsha, where he says that the day she sheds tears because of him, “it will be as if Mangle has died.”
However, the story takes a darker turn after marriage. In one intense scene, Vijay is seen accusing Barsha of betrayal in front of villagers and physically assaulting her, creating a strong dramatic conflict.
Actor Maksam Gaudel is also seen confronting Vijay, indicating further tension in the story. The teaser, however, also includes brief romantic moments, leaving much of the story undisclosed.
