STORY

The film presents the height of violence against women in ancient Nepal - the Sati tradition.
In "Jhola", a young woman (Garima Pant) is married to a man 40 years older than her. When
her husband dies, Garima is kept to be burned alive along with her husband's corpse. She has
escaped the fire and is hiding in a cave. You can watch the movie to find out what happens
to Garima and how her grandson helps her.

STRENGTH AND WEAKNESS

Although there are areas for improvement, the scenes in the film appear realistic and historic.
The film depicts the environment of eastern Nepal at the time of 100 years ago. The film
uses distant shots to present realistic views of the era. The film presents traditional tools like
dhiki, janto, madani, ranko, diyalo, etc. Young people can get a glimpse of our past and older
people feel the time they went through in their childhood. So young and old can enjoy the
film. In addition to the Sati tradition, the film also touches on the tradition of slavery
(Kamara Kamari). The cinematography is one of the best aspects of the film. The director
has also taken care to present the ancient environment. Most of the lighting during filming
was also done by traditional lights like the ranko, the diyalo and the fireplace light. The dress
used by the characters was also hand sewn. The background music was also made up of leaf
music and traditional tunes. The director says none of the artists did any makeup. To make
the characters look natural, they had carried cow dung, dug in the fields, carried water, and
natural dirt was used to make the characters real.

Other actors have also justified their character. In a report, Garima fell ill after filming the
scene in which she fled while swimming in the river. Garima said that throughout filming,
she did not take a bath or apply makeup. Director Yadav Bhattarai is a household name in
the making of Nepalese music videos. After making around 900 music videos, Yadav
decided to make the story film he read 11 years ago. He read the book in BS 2059 and got
permission to make a movie about it in BS 2063 from Dharabasi. Screenwriter Deepak Alok
had died four years before the film's release.

CONCLUSION

"Jhola" is a historical film to get a glimpse of the times of our ancestors. The film is a mirror
of violence against women in antiquity. Besides entertainment, the film offers insight into
history, culture and tradition. “Jhola” has its share of flaws, but it's a good historical film. If
you love to fight, sing, dance, and have fun in the movies, this might not be the one you'd like
to watch.
