I have known Mr. Pyaande on sajha since his heydays as a great philosopher. He still is. His teachings on meditations and achieving the ultimate enlightenment have healed many sufferers. There have been quacks along the way. Who wouldn't want to be like the multidimensional personality that Mr. Pyaande is? I remember one charlatan who impersonated Mr. Pyaande in his coveted graduation gown. That was easily the most hilarious thing I ever saw in my life. Everybody wants to be like Mr. Pyaande, but no one can do like Mr. Pyaande himself. Besides being a learned philosopher, Mr. Pyaande also happens to be a stock trader. His suggestions on daily picks brought many people on and off sajha from their respective cribs to the homeless streets of Bronx while despite all the crazy picks, Mr. Pyaande still resides in his luxurious house. As I said, no one does quite like Mr. Pyaande.
But this does not cover even half of the spectrum of Mr. Pyaande's complete identity. Much to the discomfort and jealousy of his naysayers, Mr. Pyaande is a drummer, a guitarist, a flute player, a vlogger to the whole world of youtube, fu(ktube, and many other tubes you can remember. He is a singer too. His recent attempt on the Nepali soft rock genre reminds me of the popular yet unrecorded nepali song: "Tero bau mero bau maachha maarna gayo, talai puchhar malai tauko barabari bhayo". (Re: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-O5f7dycWWU&feature=player_embedded). Suffice it to say, Mr. Pyaande is pretty much an all-rounder, a multi-talented persona that none of you on Sajha could even think of competing.
Now onto his latest venture and passion: short movies. Make no mistake that Mr. Pyaande is a budding artist. In fact, he is a seasoned director! He can direct the way no other directors can. "Transition" is an example. It is entirely his concept, story, screenplay, production, reproduction, cinematography and choreography (please refer to the very last scene where the "ghost" starts making some moves). Direction followed and came by itself. "When you do all the important things in film-making by yourself, direction is not quite necessary. It comes involuntarily"explains Mr. Pyaande. In other words, this movie was self-directed as per Mr. Pyaande. Everyone just went with the flow. Although Mr. Pyaande claims his work is unparalleled, some critiques suggest that Mr. Pyaande's work is somewhat influenced by veteran Bollywood director duo Ramsay brothers.
