Bhedako Oon Jasto…in search of a song…

is a simple and spontaneous visual documentation of a search process of a folk song.
The search where Narayan Wagle, a well known journalist of Nepal leads Amrit Gurung and Daniel Karthak singer and musician of the highly popular Nepathya fame to the source of a folk song.
Narayan had heard a folk song while trekking in the Langtang region of the Himalayas, some eight years ago. The melody stays in his memory. One day he sings it to Amrit Gurung of Nepathya.
Amrit requests for Narayan’s assistance to aid him lead towards details on the song and the melody. Amrit intends to sing this for his new album.
Narayan sets forth a clause of revisiting the mountains in order to get a feel of the song and the place better. The trip is agreed upon.
Daniel, the guitarist of Nepathya is also taken along to catch the tunes of the Tungna (the mountain string instrument).
A common friend and the catalyst between Narayan and Nepathya who also happens to be a filmmaker by hobby decides to join the trip with his camera.
The spontaneous follow of the 10 day trip into the Himalayan Langtang region later becomes a 55 minute long award winning film, critically acclaimed to be a film with many merits.
