Kabaddi Kabaddi Kabaddi is a 2019 Nepalese romantic comedy-drama film, directed by Ram Babu Gurung, who co-wrote the screenplay with Upendra Subba. The film is produced by Mani Ram Pokharel, Arjun Karki, and Om Chand Rauniyar under the banners of Baasuri Films in association with Mountain Stories, and presented by Cinema Art. The film stars Dayahang Rai, Upasana Singh Thakuri, Rishma Gurung, Karma, Wilson Bikram Rai, Buddhi Tamang, and Bijaya Baral.[2][3]

It was released on September 20, 2019, with mixed reviews from the critics and audience alike. Despite massive success of the previous films, its performance at the box office was an underwhelming affair. Sequel to 2015 film Kabaddi Kabaddi, it is the third installment of the Kabaddi franchise. It was followed by its sequel Kabaddi 4: The Final Match in 2022.[4][5]

Following the events of Kabaddi Kabaddi, where his long-time unrequited love, Maiya, eloped with her lover, Kaji initially becomes more arrogant and claims that love is no longer his priority, stating he will live with Maiya's memories.

However, Kaji soon develops feelings for Kasi, who is the daughter of his father's friend. Kasi, however, is in love with a man named Myaki. A complex love quadrangle forms as Kasi is also being pressured by her mother to marry the wealthy Dhan Kaji, while her father, Lal Bahadur favors Kaji due to his dislike for Dhan Kaji.

Kaji attempts to pursue Kasi, even befriending her father to compete with Dhan Kaji. He eventually confesses his love to Kasi, but she rejects him. Having matures somewhat from his previous heartbreak, Kaji decides not to obsess over the unrequited love and instead chooses to help Kasi and her lover, Myaki, in their pursuit of being together.[6]
