Born in Hong Kong in 1994, Magar moved to Dharan, Nepal, at the age of two, where she pursued her education up to the 8th grade. Her journey then took her to the UK with her family, where she completed her postgraduate studies, nurturing a growing passion for drama.
In 2017, armed with a degree and a dream, Magar returned to Nepal, embarking on a solo venture in a country that felt unfamiliar, despite it being her homeland. "My family was in the UK, and I had no acquaintances in Nepal," she said. It was in Nepal that her acting career began to take shape, with collaboration with theater actor Anup Baral. Her debut performance in Baral's 'Kathadesh Part 3' set the stage for her career. Similarly, she landed a role in the movie 'Lalpurja', followed by roles in eight more films.
Magar's talents extend beyond the silver screen; she has also earned a degree in International Relations. Reflecting on her journey, she shares, “If you put your heart and soul in your work, any work will be successful and beautiful." Currently filming the movie 'Ghar Jwai', Magar has already committed to three additional film projects. With a resolve to prioritize acting as her main profession, Magar's story is a testament to the power of passion and perseverance in navigating the route to success.
