The play gracefully portrays the imitation of the western society in Nepal. Although played by a limited number of characters, it beautifully depicts the scenario of western Nepal through its typical setting, powerful plot, authentic costumes and props as well as dialects from the region. The delivery of dialogues made by the chorus creatively depicts the transitions between scenes to connect the audience with the play.
Directed by Prem Poudel, the drama features some of the prominent theater artists including Prabha Kumar Neupane, Basudev Khanal, Sikahya Lamsal, and Gayatri Tripathi.
