Think about one actor in Kollywood who refuses to be ageing. His killer looks, his relentless working schedules, and his straightforwardness have put him in limelight even after decades in film career. If you still haven't figured out, then you know only a little about Nepali films. Yes, the man who believes that grey hairs have nothing to do with your potentiality till you are young at heart is Bhuwan KC. The prominent hero, who says he is a new born baby on every September 17, is a graduate in Political Science from Tri-Chandra Campus. This versatile actor is also a singer of popular numbers, such as, Jage Jage Sara Raat, Ma Roop Timi Darpan and Aru Kale Railko Dhuwale, to name a few. Also a model in Bombay once upon a time, KC got his break in Juni and has done over a hundred films that include a few Bangladeshi, Pakistani and Sri Lankan productions. Also, a producer whose films like Sapana, Karodpati, Superstar and Nepalibabu became box office hits, the prodigy is soon to release his next production Ma Ta Timibina Marihalchhu, which according to him is the first celluloid film in Nepal with Dolby Digital sound.

Together they make a complete package.

My son Anmol and my mom.
One such habit of yours that many don't know about…
There are people who are too diplomatic. Perhaps, you may ask this question to them and they will have a lot to answer. I'm an open book to everyone.
If you were a song, you'd be...
Janani Janma Bhumischa Swargadapi Gariyasi.
The color of your life…
I like to be adorned on black and white but baize is too soothing.
Karishma Manandhar or Mausami Malla…
Karishma. She is an angel personified.
Shiva Shrestha or Saroj Khanal…
Shiva Shrestha. He is one such actor who made Nepali films popular in Pakistan and is still working.
Rekha Thapa or Richa Ghimire…
Both have one thing in common. Great sex appeal!
Rajesh Hamal or Nikhil Uprety…
Rajesh. I've seen many actors coming and leaving the celluloid. But Rajesh has been consistent ever since he joined.
You—a model, singer, actor or a producer...
I'm an actor first. My acting gave me other opportunities.
If you were to go on a vacation abroad, three places you'd visit...
As I've already had a world tour, I would love to go for a safari ride in the African jungles.
You prefer a housewife or a working woman...
Can I opt for both? I prefer one who can be there when her home requires and can work outside simultaneously.
Cinemascope format or digital…
I have worked in cinemascope format to this day, so it is very dear to me. Meanwhile, since digital format is the new generation's demand, I need to adjust with it too.
Five things about Nepali silver screen that you hate the most...
Directors trying to make producers a scapegoat, producers who invest asking the directors to cast themselves in lead roles, monopoly in screening of films in theaters, unprofessional directors signing in four to five senior actors vouching for a safe landing, the politics jury members play during various film festivals and award ceremonies.
You see Nepali film industry as...
Gone are the days when one film used to be released in five years. Today there are around fifty films in a year. Still, we are just good at quantity. Only a few filmmakers are able to come up with quality products. We don't lack audience; we haven't been able to make good cinema.

Had I been one, I would have discouraged screening of foreign movies at the cost of our own.

Can I look for my Eve in that island? If not, what else I do?
You get put off by?
People who show fake sympathy and backstab you.

A TV program you simply can't tolerate…
I really don't like watching any programs on TV.
All that matters to men are...
Money matters a lot in today's prospect, and then a beautiful wife, success, status and power.

I do a lot. What has to happen happens at any cost and nobody has control over it.
You would love to date…
Sushmita Sen.
Anything that you don't like about journalists in Nepal…
While interviewing, reporters are so polite and they dig into our personal life. But, the article is published otherwise. I don't know why 95 percent of journalists here are so obsessed with sex that all they ask would be “What you think about sex?” They tend to write more about what people's flaws are than what they have contributed to society. Everything is not a scoop.
When you get angry, you…
I forget that I'm an actor. I'm very short- tempered.
You love getting dressed in …
I wear all kinds of dresses. At times, you can spot me sporting jeans and T-shirts in parties and you can see me in suits at casual meetings.
Your fitness mantra…
I've never gone to gym, never exercised, never been on dieting. I keep my mind fresh and think positive.
Where do you see yourself ten years down the line…
Making movies and acting. One thing is for sure, you'll never hear about me migrating elsewhere.
