Je Sukai Hos

Je Sukai Hos, which translates to "Whatever May Happen", is a 2019 Nepali drama film released in theatres on 4 January 2019. The film was co-directed by Umesh Gurung and Roshan Kumar and was produced under the Quality Films banner. Umesh Gurung, a well-known music-video director from Lamjung born on 8 January 1985, made his mark in the industry as a model and choreographer before turning to feature films, and in Je Sukai Hos he worked in front of the camera as a leading actor as well as behind it as director.

The film stars Umesh Gurung alongside Chanda Dahal, Nabaraj Jung Thapa and Sunil Katuwal in the principal roles. As the title suggests, the story deals with the twists and turns of life and love — the idea that no matter what happens, people must keep going, keep loving and keep hoping. It belongs to the tradition of Nepali dramas that mix romance with everyday struggles, a formula that has remained popular with domestic audiences over the years.

The technical crew was an experienced one: the music was composed by Suresh Adhikari along with Laxman Shesh, with lyrics by the veteran songwriter Dayaram Pandey. The cinematography was handled by Madhur Basnet and the film was edited by Banish Shah, both respected names in the Nepali film industry by that time.

Je Sukai Hos was released in the first week of January 2019, at the start of a new Nepali film year, and the full movie is available to watch for free on YouTube today. For viewers who enjoy the quiet, message driven dramas of Nepali cinema and for followers of Umesh Gurung's work in the music video world, the film offers a chance to see the director step into the bigger canvas of feature filmmaking. The film has also been officially uploaded on YouTube, where it continues to reach viewers who missed its theatrical run.
