Milan Chams (born 20 March 1980) is a director of Nepali films. He is best known for the films Bir Bikram[1][2][3] and Lily Bily which have received a number of awards. Other films he directed include Bir Bikram 2.[4]

Chams caused an uproar when he filed charges against stand-up comedian Pranesh Gautam after the latter gave a satirical review of Bir Bikram 2. His critics accused him of bullying and harassing movie critics upon getting negative reviews.[5]

Bir Bikram 2 was widely panned by the critics. It was criticized for its sexist overtones and also accused of plagiarizing scenes from 'Sholay', a hit Bollywood film from the 70's.[6]
