Well it was a shitty start to the new year. Our plan of going to lamjung went down the drain due to the Nepal Banda(Strike). Anyways I was walking past my house when I saw this movie poster of a new Nepali movie called "Ghamanda" which means "Pride" in English. As soon as I saw the poster I knew I had seen it before. I thought it was of the movie punisher..which has a similar poster, So I reached home and googled it and then I found that it was similar to the poster of the movie "Blade", which stars Wesley snipes as a vampire hunting vampire. So I decided to take a picture of it and did a side by side comparision.

As you can see the poster is similar to the original in many ways. The only thing that I find different is that the nepali version has a nepali sword and looks more vulgar with that not so sensual woman lying at the bottom. What does this say about our nepali movie industry. Its bad enough they steal the plots and the story line but copying the movie poster is taking it a step too far. I mean even the eyes at the background look exactly the same. Do Nepali filmmakers have no creativity left in them. Even the recent so called ground breaking nepali movies have similar plots to othe popular movies. The recently released Nepali movie was a copy of the Koream flick "A millionaire's first love". I just hope I get to watch a Nepali movie with original concept and stoyline soon.
