"I WANT TO CONTINUE EXPERIMENTING WITH NEW GENRES AND THEMES," SAYS RAVI ADHIKARI

You are carrying forward your father's illustrious heritage. You must be carrying a heavy burden as a result.

It goes without saying that future generations will be scrutinised because their father has accomplished so much and put so much effort into his life. However, I see it as more of a responsibility than a burden. We count ourselves fortunate and are grateful to my late father, Gautam Adhikari, and my uncle, Markand Adhikari, for their contributions to the world of entertainment. Therefore, it is our duty to advance it and, with God's help, raise it significantly for our next generation.

Tell us about the memories you have of your late father, Gautam Adhikari.
