With first appearance in Yestai Rahechha Jindagi as a coactress, Arunima Lamsal has established herself in Nepali film industry over the past eight years. She has acted in over three dozen films so far. Recalling her days as a teen, she says she didn't have any plan to make a career in this field. Daughter to Radha Bhabu Lamsal who is also a renowned name in Nepali film industry, Arunima was entangled in a knot of marriage when her career was blossoming.

Is there any familial role for your entry into Nepali film industry?
Honestly speaking, I got support from my family only after my entry into the film industry. I never thought of being an actress as a teen. I had a plan to make a career in banking sector. My mom didn't force me to get into the film industry, too.

How many films have you acted in so far?
Um, around 35 or 40 films.

What's the reason behind your appearance in glamorous getup in most films?
Obviously, I played a glamorous role in my first film. It might have encouraged producers and directors to offer me such a role in films. And, I have appeared glamorous only in about a dozen films, not in others.

It is reported that directors/producers force actresses for physical exposure. What do you say?
I have not experienced any pressure from directors/producers for physical exposure yet. But, I'm ready for exposure if the story demands.

You got married when your career was on progress. Has it any effect on your career?
Not at all. Number of fans has instead multiplied contrary to my expectation.
Film industry is subject to different controversial rumours. Doesn't it hamper your conjugal life?
Definitely, even an ordinary person is not aloof from rumours as such, let alone actresses. Despite this
