    Bunu Dhungana presents a vignette into the life and times of Khagendra Sangraula, one of Nepal's most prolific writers and commentators.

    Khagendra Sangraula is one of Nepal's foremost public intellectuals. A writer, translator, activist, and newspaper columnist, Khagen dai, as he's affectionately known, has been a thorn in the complacent backsides of the establishment for nearly five decades now. Famed for his acerbic wit, Khagen dai is a prolific commentator on all things political and social.

    This short documentary is a glimpse into his everyday.
