What happens

Badlido Aakash (The Changing Sky) is a 1983 Nepali social drama film directed by Laxminath Sharma and produced by the state-owned Royal Nepal Film Corporation (RNFC). Written by the prominent Nepali literary figure Bijaya Bahadur Malla, the film stars an ensemble cast including Shiva Shrestha, Sushma Shahi, Harihar Sharma, Subhadra Adhikari, Neer Shah, Tika Pahari, and Santosh Panta. Released on November 8, 1983, the film is regarded as a hallmark project of the "Golden Era" of Nepalese cinema (1981–1990). It explored the generational fractures and shifting moral paradigms in a rapidly urbanizing Nepali society. The film is particularly remembered for its critically acclaimed soundtrack composed by Gopal Yonjan. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
