i_nepali,

I listened to Mr. Rai's interview just yesterday infact in BSBF Gurkha Radio. Couple of things i want to comment on the fursad.com's news:

- Mr.  Rai did know that Raju Lama was performing in the New York concert. His response was not that honest while answering the consuler probably to save Mr. lama but was a mistake

- He was asked to come again after 4 or 5 days and was not rejected.

I like Mr. Rajesh Payal Rai far more better than Raju Lama. His recent songs are very good.

Sumbhujeet Baskota - Heavyweight?? ------> He maybe (infact is) physically heavy weight!! But professionally he is a copy cat and i don't consider him a great music composer. An infamous example:

Gairi Khet ko song--------> Melody of Mr. Ganga Bardan's song.

A lot of composers try to stay far away from this guy.
