Jaari 2: Song of Chyabrung (Nepali: जारी २: सङ अफ च्याब्रुङ) is a 2025 Nepalese social drama film written and directed by Upendra Subba. The film stars Dayahang Rai, Miruna Magar, and Bijay Baral, reprising their roles from the first film, alongside Buddhi Tamang, and Reecha Sharma. The film is produced by Ram Babu Gurung, Madhu Mijar, and Jiban Gurung under the banners of Baasuri Films in association with Kabaddi Films. It is the sequel to the 2023 blockbuster film Jaari.[2][3]

It was initially supposed to be released on September 19 on the occasion of Constitution day in Nepal but postponed due to Nepalese Gen Z protests. It released in cinemas worldwide on 7 November 2025, among mixed reviews. Its primary critique centered on the forced introduction of the Maoist insurgency and an attempt to juggle multiple themes including relationship struggles, the cultural significance of Chyabrung, political conflict, and religious conversion. This thematic overload eliminated the unique charm and focus of its predecessor, Jaari, resulting in a narrative that felt both unconvincing and rushed.[4][5]

Synopsis

Continuing the story of the first film, Jaari 2 follows the journey of Namsang and his wife Hangma as they embark on a new chapter of their married life. The film's narrative is deeply rooted in the culture of the Limbu community and revolves around the Chyabrung, a traditional drum that symbolizes love, identity and resilience. The film explores how Namsang navigates personal struggles and the complexities of his community's traditions with the guidance of the drum's rhythms.[6]
