Pradeep Shahi is a British-Nepalese filmmaker known for introducing ambitious, genre-focused storytelling to the Nepali film industry. He gained significant recognition with his 2022 feature, 1915: Legend of the Gurkhas, a psychological war drama that explored the harrowing experiences of the first Gurkha to receive the Victoria Cross. He followed this with the 2023 mystery thriller Antim Sanskar (The Last Ritual), featuring Vijay Lama, which focused on a dark investigation in a traditional Himalayan setting.
