- The layered film tells the story of a woman married to three brothers-a hark back to the epics, but with a decidedly modern tone. Film critic Meenakshi Shedde, who is also the India and South Asia delegate to the Berlin Film Festival, meets the cast and crew in Berlin for more
Asia is making it's mark in the World Film world stage in a big way! Well done Nepal!👍
Being an Nepali speaking Indian i am so proud and happy to see them in Berlinale,congrats team shambhala❤👏🙏
You are Nepalese not Indian. Nepal will demand Darjeeling, Sikkim, Uttarakahand and all of those lands stolen by India once Nepal becomes strong and worthy.
Whether it being Nepali or Tibetan, the fact that these kinda of narrative which is still very much in practice and heard of is being recognised and appreciated around the globe. Congratulations to all the actors and the director.
Where can we watch ?
Shambala is a great dramatic film with stunning landscape views of Upper Dolpo, it is the best compared to all Nepali Commercial movies and should be nominated for an Oscar.
I love Nepal, Buddhism, Tibetans, and the many ethnic minorities of the Himalayas. I am a Nepali Chhetri but grew up among Tamangs in my household in remote North-Eastern Nepal, but have been living in America and China for 42 years now.
Nepal is made of a myriad of different ethnic peoples who peacefully coexist in Nepal, upholding their own unique culture, traditions, and languages without hinderance. I am so happy that Nepali people of Tibetan descent have been able to flourish and achieve such heights on the world stage as showcased by this magnificent Nepali film.
Let’s not forget that even the renowned Tamang and Gurung races of Nepal migrated to Nepal from Tibet thousands of years ago but still retain a part of their Tibetan cultural heritage. In stark contrast the dominant Chettri and Bahun castes of Nepal migrated to Nepal from India just a few hundred years ago, but have been dominating modern Nepal for too long.
I am so glad that other Nepali ethnic groups, including Tibetans, are now doing so well too. All Nepalis should celebrate and be proud of this, instead of resorting to petty bickering for no good reason whatsoever.
Min is a gem of Nepali contemporary cinema art. An artist that can potery eternal galaxy in a small canvas. hats off Min dai. #jayNepal.
Thanks for the director for giving Tibetans a great opportunity. 🎉
Loved the simplicity and authenticity of the casts and crew. Always been a big fan of Ming Dai's work. Can't wait for an opportunity to watch the film. 🙏✨✨
Congratulations! Proud to see Tibetan cast. Very common in Tibetan culture for a wife to have brothers as husbands. Looking forward to seeing this movie!
Congratulations! So proud for Nepal. ❤
I hv to say only one word for this beautiful people's Respect🙏 who reach the nepali movie industry this big stage
It’s a Nepali movie created on Tibetans traditions and , Tibetans need to chill the fuck out , I am Tibetan by the way
Amidst the inundation of remakes and brainless movies, this kind of platform buttresses the makers who are trying to explore purity in films. Kudos to the whole team! It’s indeed a great achievement for us.
looking at the cast and crew definately tells that they are much aware about the seriouness of craft and the captain of the film Min himself is simple yet complicated who manage to potray real life story of people in such a way that even the simple story looks bigger in his canvas. waiting eagerly to watch Shambala. kudos to the entire movie team and wish u all nothing but more success.
I’m a Tibetan, the comment sections from Tibetans are bit depressing. Tibetans need to chill tf out.
I dont think its only Tibetans, here in Europe and America's ignorants have become very vociferous about their ignorance and feelings because the media props them up...only to fail miserably.
Dont be offended, they dont represent anyone but themselves, ignore or make fun of them is my advice.
Which comment , be precise man
Best wishes to Shambhala team!👏👏👏👏
This is a reality of being Tibetan/refugee.. although this is a great movie played entirely by Tibetans who showcases a story of Tibetan culture Dholpo which is politically a part of Nepal but historical and culturally non arguable Tibet…
Since the director is from Nepal, they registered to this festival in the name of Nepal… so giving credit to the real ethnicity/background of the actors is very crucial and the culture they are portraying … so proud to be a Tibetans actors in the name of Nepal….
Best commeni 💯
What happens if Hollywood makes a similar film with similar cast , does it become Hollywood or Tibetan film ? You answer this you answer everything
Stop this political nonsense
Whoever the actors are and whatever their ethnicity is , remember this isn't a Tibetan movie , the director himself is Nepali and even though actors may have been born somewhere else they majory grew up in Nepal . Nepal is densely composed of Tibetan Nepalese and that doesn't make them Tibetans instead of Nepali .🙄 It is true that it reflects Tibetan ethnicity but that doesn't make it a Tibetan film , it is proudly and officially a Nepali Film as many Tibetans reside since ages in Nepal and the movie was shot totally in mesmerizing landscapes of Nepal . Pls don't discard others efforts claiming as one of yours . All the best for "SAMBHALA " and Nepal .🇳🇵🇳🇵
@@shawn10119 these are Indian Tibetans expect only bull shit
India should be proud too as the three lead actors are Tibetans born and brought up in Tibetan refugee settlements of India. Cheers to Sonam Topden, Tenzin Dalha and Loten Namling. Tashi Delek!
Sonam Topden born n raised in Nepal Kathmandu.
@@gokulsh2393nope. He was born in Manali, Himachal Pradesh.

Congratulations to team shambhala it's fantastic interview ❤
Tibet has the fast connection with Nepal more than China and India, i think so. Tibetians are unrecognisable as a foreign nationals if they roam any part of Nepal. But the current relationship between Nepal and Tibet should be under one China policy to avoid any major disturbance to both the societies across the border. For Peace ❤
All the love to the team 🇳🇵🇳🇵
The director's academic background sounds solid to bring the nuances shown in this film.
Thank u from Nepal 🇳🇵
Congratulations Nepal 🇳🇵🇳🇵
Chill out guys, we share borders so india nepal tibet china have many things in common you can’t say it belongs to one particular nation.
India has a huge population who speak nepali and share similar culture doesnt mean they are nepali.
Similar way dolpo is a part of nepal that is heavily influenced by tibetan culture and tradition doesnt make it tibet.
For me its secondary whether its tibetan or nepali, main thing is the story that movie tries to portray and the success it has reached is much more important.
Enjoy mango dont fight for the seed inside.
Congrats nabin dai and the team
Proud to be Nepali
The theme is Tibetan culture, the Language is pure Tibetan and the main actors are Tibetans in this film. How can it not be a Tibetan film? Hello Berlin Festival!! Wake up!! Give some credit to Tibet and Tibetans!!😇
Whatever bro.. it's a Nepali film with an ethnic Tibetan story and well well-rolled by Tibetan actors..u can feel Tibet in that movie.
Based in Dolpo which is in Nepal just like caravan.
Bc the director is Nepalese n dolpo is geographically in Nepal even though the culture n religion is similar with Tibet
something good is happening around your culture and instead of praising it, you want to be political !
Give credit to Tibetans also for 7 years in Tibet movie, it was a hollywood movie but majority cast was Tibetan.
No fuss for that in front of Americans.
All other medias prasing about this movie whereas nepali media is busy with random bullshits kandas
Whoever the actors are and whatever their ethnicity is , remember this isn't a Tibetan movie , the director himself is Nepali and even though actors may have been born somewhere else they majory grew up in Nepal .

the film is no doubt nepali but that landscape is more tibetan actually...
@@WaMo721 half Tibet is part of Nepal and we have great landscape if you don't visit there then it's you should visit mustang, dolpa
@@Sameervlogxx whole nepal is part of western TIBET.......sometimes nepal is also part of greater india.......i don't wanna visit cuz the road is too bad and trash everywhere.....i don't wanna hurt my back lol,but thanx
So Slumdog Millionaire is a Bolleywood/Indian movie? Idiot.
Looka more like tibetan film than nepal one . Any way congratulations guys for the achievement.
We have Tibetan origin Nepali people in Nepal. Sherpa, Tamnags, Gurungs, Yolmos and people from Dolpa and Mustang are all Tibetan descendants Nepali tribes.
Tibet is a plateau and some parts of it is in Nepal as well so Tibetan is part of Nepali community and culture
@@aa6eheia156that’s the Chinese narrative to occupy Nepal. Good luck.
I understand your point, but Dolpo is in present-day Nepal. However, it is true that its language, culture and religion are 100% Tibetan as it used to be part of the great Tibetan Guge kingdom. And also in this film, the lead actors like Sonam Topden, Loten Namling and Tenzin Dalha are all Tibetans born and brought up in Tibetan refugee settlements of India.
@@1user1212so who cares where they're from at least they get to earn their bread and butter from this film it's just like Jackie Chan acting in Hollywood movies we don't call that Chinese movie this film is for certain mass only not for the majority have already watch lots of doc on this subject so don't get excited it's nothing intriguing nor new done and dusted it's an old tradition
Best wishes ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ for competition
Resoect to the director snd all the cast ..

@Choenyi999 Its Nepali film with Tibetan culture written and directed by Nepali director
Where can we watch this movie??
❤❤❤Tashi Delek Sonam and Dhalha
Congratulations ❤❤❤
Mahavarath was myth but in our county still this culture does exist.
The name of the film only says the whole story! Shambala ! Please Forbes India tell me which language is this term?
Why it is called Nepali while all the actors r Tibetan and the theme of the movie is about Tibetan Buddhism?
Much of the inhabitants of the region where the story takes place has its roots from Tibet and hence many of the casts are of Tibet origin.
Moreover, the origin of the story is based in Nepal and the Director and some of the producers and other technical crew are from Nepal.
@@suyo2022 stolen from others doesn't make it urs. Ask anyone if there is one single thing that u can called as Nepali in that movie?
Most actors are indian, story is based upon people of northern part of Nepal called dolpo. Director is Nepali
@@user-pc8kf6gn9h what an idiot here is talking?
@@tenzinsangpo5086bro, what do you mean by stolen? Please be respectful in the conversation.
When the actual film gonna release?
Congratulations ❤
Bravo all ❤

It’s a Tibetan film made by Nepali director. Get your facts right
It’s a Nepali film based on Tibetan culture made by Nepali director. That’s the fact
Nepal🇳🇵🇳🇵
Why it’s Nepali film, the cast are Tibetan and the story is about Tibetan Buddhist.
Nepal 🎉🎉🎉🎉
For my fellow Tibetans, Slumdog millionaire is not an Indian Film!!
If the film is made in Tibetan language even it was shot in Nepal by Nepalese director with some nepalese actors . I prefer to say it's a Tibetian movie.
Dilemma 😂😂
So Slumdog Millionaire is a Bolleywood/Indian movie? Idiot.
🇳🇵🙏❤️
Why Nepali? Why is it difficult to say it's tibetan?
because it is not. that's why. Production team is nepali, most of the actors are Nepali. the place where the story takes place Dolpo is in Nepal. You want to claim places for tibet? Go claim arunanchal.
Shambhala”, is directed by Min Bahadur Bham, (Nepali) The film was shot in the Upper Dolpo region in Nepal
Thinley Lhamo portrays Pema, the spirited protagonist. She hails from Nepal.
Sonam Topden takes on the role of Karma, one of Pema’s brother-in-laws. born an raised in India
Tenzin Dalha embodies Tashi, Pema’s husband who mysteriously disappears has indian roots.
Karma Wangyal Gurung plays Dawa, another brother-in-law Like the others, he is Nepali.
Karma Shakya portrays Ram sir. He, too, is Nepali.
Loten Namling graces the screen as Rinpoche, . He is originally from Tibet now living in Europe
Tsering Lhamo Gurung embodies Pema’s friend. She is also Nepali.
Janga Bahadur Lama, portraying a shepherd, He, too, is Nepali.
@@lamadanuloten namling living in Europe.
melt snowflake melt 🙂
because its literally written and directed by min bahadur bham who is nepali and because its shot in dolpo which is in present day nepal. although the language, people and culture portrayed in the movie is tibetan, it is technically a nepali film. cant believe i have to explain this to you.
@prabhubank please save me from this #randibaazi
Why is she so happy that no Indian movies are there in the festival as though it adds to the credit to this movie. No Indian movie in 30 yrs!! I think the problem is with the Germany film festival and its credibility. No hate to this crew though..Good luck with the competition..
if the producers r nepali then it is nepali film.....
this tibetan cmnts 😂 director could have easily not casted actors from chinese and tibet but hed did and respected it so stop being a dkhed
from paakhe area to Berlin! looking to emigrate i know for sure, someone will apply for refugee status
No area is "paakhe"... the lands are rich on its own.
Lol for you kind information, these people are not Nepali, they are tibetan and it’s a tibetan film, yeah maybe this out this film under Nepali category so that they won’t get any heat or pressure from china
Dude what kind of delusional world you're living.The director is Nepali and some of the actors are Nepali and all the behind the camera crews are Nepali how could we say thats Tibetan film yeah its true there is Tibetan culture but please be aware of diversity of Nepal
Yea log ka godi media ne brainwash Kiya hai
Stop😂haha first of all i would like to say if pressure came from china this move could be never made
@@Sarmila_waiba I don’t want to waste my time talking to you cuz u don’t know nothing
