The lockdown months have seen a revolution when it comes to watching interesting cinema and content being portrayed on various platforms.

Darjeeling based Tibetan filmmaker Shenpenn Khymsar has made his directorial debut with a Hindi-Nepali film, ‘Broken Wings’.

The film which will release next year in 2021 is the first feature film to originate from Darjeeling since India became free and it is a bilingual film – Hindi and Nepali.

Producer, Writer, composer and director, Shenpenn Khymsar who has made the film under the banner of Monk & The Warrior Productions, stated that Darjeeling is an integral part of India where people mostly speak in Nepali, but whenever people hear Nepali, especially the Hindi speaking belt and the Southern audience, they think its from Nepal. “But I want them to know that Nepali infact is a constitutional language in India.
