Nepali movie: ‘Alvida’ is a story of a rising don of Siraha, ‘Mahadev’. The movie presents his conflict with ‘Ranvir Bhaiya’, another don of the same area and romance with ‘Zoya’. The movie also features superstar Aryan Sigdel as super cop.

Nepal has a history of corrupt system. Most of dons have been receiving blessings and other required support from various political parties and their top guns, according to investigative officials. This is an embarrassment to their parties and senior leaders. ‘Alvida’ presents the life of a don and also depicts their relationship with political parties and police officers. “The introduction of the new law against organized crime by the second CA is likely to make the task easier for duty-bound cops. The new law can provide enough power to the security organs to bust criminal gangs. These organized criminal gangs are dangerous for the safety of the common people and the interests of the nation. If allowed to run freely, the gangsters might even establish relations with hardened criminals and terrorists of the region.” – Narayan Upadhyay (ekantipur.com)

The movie has a good script but presentation looks out of order. Most of the time movie seemed flat and boring and background score was loud not helping. Performance was good from most artists. Ranvir bhaiya’s energetic performance in particular was impressive. Choreography on was better. Cinematography was below average. The movie rarely has any creditable dialogues. They were all too normal and flat that could easily make you sleep.
