History for Winners
(Itihaas Jitneharuka Laagi)

An award-winning singer makes a desperate but unsuccessful attempt to make a comeback after being in musical hibernation for seven years. Itihaas Jitneharuka Laagi portrays the changes in the Nepali music scene, as represented by Kuber Rai and Dheeraj Rai. The two singers are a study in contrasts, with their diametrically opposing personalities and attitude towards music. The film invokes a Nepali adage ”bolne ko pitho bikcha, na bolne ko chaamal pani bikdaina”, which suggests that to succeed one has to be a good salesman.
