His father, Chuda Bahadur Hamal, was a diplomat, a scholarly man with a master’s degree in English Literature, a Goodwill Ambassador, and a reoccurring contributor to philanthropy.

He won the most prestigious cinematic awards association in Nepal and the first of several Best Actors Awards by the National Film Award.

His presentations differed in character and variation from seat-gripping action to light-hearted romantic comedy and adventure. His cinematic success has not been left unrecognized; he is the beneficiary of three decades deserving of Best Actor awards and nominations, in addition to diverse additional accomplishments.

Then he got married on 24 May 2014 in a private matrimony ceremony at Hotel Annapurna. Hamal said that he was overwhelmed by Bhattarai’s ability at the Lux Beauty Pageant.

Nepal’s Cinematic Legend
People say that the most flourishing people follow their guardians, indicating they pursue the corresponding path as their parents. Hamal is a remarkable example of a demurral to that belief.
While he continues to act, Hamal has not indicated that he has retired for good. He perhaps has chosen to settle down marriage, but his name and his success will carry on for decades to come. He has set the standards high for several reasons. For one, he can act in a wide array of roles. Though many of his movies are romantic or light comedies, he did not limit himself to those characters, displaying many award-winning personas throughout the decades. He has acted beyond 230 films to date, astronomically more than the average actor who hasn’t started his career till his mid-twenties. Hamal has established cinematic standards by his quality of acting. He is honored with many awards, acknowledgments, nominations, and honors from many different films and non-film-related organizations. There’s no denying his skillful acting.
His consecration to his acting career is unique and has hardly been arrived since. He was and still is at the vanguard of Nepalese film(s). Never before had any artist succeeded approximately as much as he has in his thirty-plus year-long career. Before his quick rise to star status, there had been no such criterion for actors, or really anyone, involved in Nepal’s film scene. Hamal single-handedly revolutionized film production and reconstructed the course of history.
