Adhyaya is a 2013 Nepali romantic film written and directed by Prabin Syangbo, presented by Five Bros Production in association with Friends Entertainment. The movie was released in theaters on January 11, 2013. It was produced by Ram Hari Adhikari, Umesh Shrestha and Surendra Shahi, with Rabindra Shahi and Dinesh Shrestha serving as executive producers.

The story of Adhyaya follows three different young men from the same place who come from different backgrounds and struggle to find love. The film explores their individual journeys and how their personalities and circumstances shape the way they pursue romance. The ensemble cast includes Karma Shakya, Sushil Raj Pandey, Aakash Magar, Simpal Khanal, Shanti Giri, Swastika Raj Bhandari, Ashok Rijal, Abhay Baral and Ankita Budhathoki.

Director Prabin Syangbo, who wrote the story, screenplay and dialogue for the film, was known for his thoughtful approach to filmmaking. He would later go on to direct the 2018 film Kathaa 72 and work as a cinematographer and producer on the 2022 film Chiso Ashtray, showing the range of his talents in the industry.

The film's promotional trailer was released through platforms like FilmyKhabar and highlighted the romantic and emotional tone of the movie. The pairing of a strong group of young actors with a story about friendship and love was designed to appeal to the youth audience that formed a major part of Nepali cinema's theater-going public in the early 2010s. Each of the three protagonists brings a distinct attitude toward love, and their contrasting approaches to romance give the film its dramatic and comic energy.

Adhyaya stands as an example of the romantic dramas that defined Nepali cinema during that period, offering a mix of emotional storytelling and relatable characters. The film's title, which means chapter, suggests that each character's story is a separate chapter of a larger book, a fitting structure for its three interconnected narratives. For viewers interested in the early works of Prabin Syangbo or the careers of actors like Karma Shakya and Sushil Raj Pandey, the film provides an important chapter in the history of Nepali filmmaking.
