More than three million Nepali youth are working abroad, and every day, an average of four migrant workers return home in coffins through the cargo terminal of Tribhuvan International Airport. Aahat Ujeliharu tells the story of one such family and the human reality behind foreign employment. Nuruman, a young man from Bhojpur, leaves Nepal for work in the Gulf, carrying the hopes and expectations of his family with him. He dies in a road accident, and his body is brought back to Nepal. His wife, Ujeli, and their relatives wait at the cargo terminal of Tribhuvan International Airport to receive his body. The story follows one night, from the moment Nuruman's body arrives at the airport to the long journey back to his home in Bhojpur. Along the way, it explores the couple's relationship, the realities of village life, the emotional cost of foreign employment, and the uncertainty faced by the family after his death. Presented through live storytelling, music, songs, contemporary dance, and silent acting, Aahat Ujeliharu brings together different forms of performance to tell a deeply familiar Nepali story. The production explores the human cost of migration, the pain of separation, and the impact of foreign employment on families and communities.
