There are some stories that need to be told because no one wants to tell these, and then there are stories that need to be told because no one wants to listen to these. NUNGSI KEITHEL is quite essentially both.
Mangal Chabungbam has brought to screen a love story of a Meitei boy and a Tangkhul girl from Ukhrul.
However, that is not the only magnificence in this movie. He has not only been able to bring to screen the beauty of Tangkhul, but has also been able to marvelously portray the beautiful Tangkhul girls themselves. Biju’s well deserved award for Best Actress at Manipur Film Festival is due to the splendid portrayal of a character whose arc is exemplary of the rich culture, hospitality the eternal beauty of people of Tangkhul. Mangal seems to utilize the unmatched natural beauty of Tangkhul to his advantage in this fable of integrity, peace, love and brotherhood.
Silheiba plays a tortured soul who is on his path to find his brother among the valleys of Ukhrul, where Biju lives with her family. The rest of the story is an extraordinary tale of love between the two unlikely people.

engrossed in the incredibly beautiful hills of Tangkhul. To say that it is a must watch is an understatement. It is one of those movies that provides the glimpse of Manipur’s rich heritage of Unity in Diversity.
