What is so difficult in langauge? Just redub the langauge. But the core is that, it was made by a Bhutanese.

Well, I have watched that movie “Milarepa” in Tibetan language not in DZONGKHA. If, its a Bhutanese movie. It should be in Bhutanese language not in Tibetan. It doesn’t really matter who is the director ….

I want to clear some of the confusion here regarding the news.

1.Neten Chokling Rimpoche is not a refugee settled in India.
2. Its not a Bhutanese film which the language spoken are all in tibetain.
3. He has monestary in Bir which his predeccesor established.
4. His predeccesor are all tibetains and he help the tibetain refugee settlement in Bir.
lastly reporter must do more research……

This is not Bhuanese film, it is Tibetan movie directed by His eminance Neten chokiling Rimpoche from Wangdi Phodrang,Bhutan. We shouldnot regard this as an Bhutanese film becoz the character and language of this film is in Tibet.
As a informer to the nation, check before u inform to other.

PS: Typographical error on the third line – “..a Tibetan refugee in Bhutan.” should read as “..a Tibetan refugee in Nepal.”
Sorry for the inconvenience.

In response to the above comment, I’m in support of the reporter, Ms.Tandin Pem; the movie MILAREPA was made by Neten Chokling Rinpoche who is a Bhutanese and not, as you say, a Tibetan refugee in Bhutan.
He worked with Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse Rinpoche in THE CUP and TRAVELERS AND MAGICIANS too, which we proudly proclaim as movies that came out of Bhutan.
She had all her facts right Mr./Ms. phaila, I wish you would have done the same before you set out on a blatant attempt to malign her professionalism.

Good work Ms.Tandin Pem.
