💨 Abstract
The first cinema hall in Kathmandu, Jansewa, opened in 1949, marking the beginning of Nepal's love affair with Hindi cinema. Before this, Nepalese cinephiles traveled to India to watch movies, influencing local fashion and music. King Mahendra's admiration for Dev Anand led to the filming of "Hare Rama Hare Krishna" in Nepal, which boosted tourism and created a lasting bond between the actor and the Nepalese people.
