हैन । तर गणेशमानलाइ बिपि-जिपिले खोला तर्यो लौरो बिर्सियो गरेको हो कि हैन ? पुस्पलाल अलि चाँडै मरेर गए, जीवनसंघर्षको फल खाने बेलासम्म बाँचेका भए उनको के हालत हुनेथियो होला थाहा छैन । देशको निमित्त पार्टीको निमित्त हिमाल वारपार गर्ने गौरीभक्त प्रधान जस्ता मानिस इतिहासको कुन खाल्डामा पुरिए नि ? मार्शल जुलुम शाक्य जस्ता एक जमानाका हस्तिहरु कता बिलाए नि ?

 

Hmm. So you think Marshal Julum Shakya , who was so corrupt that Ganesh Man too spoke against him when he was minister, is out now because of Khas conspiracy? Shakya lost election in Lalitpur against Siddi Lal Singh, and he received almost half of Siddi Lal's vote. If anything, you should berate Patane for his loss.

"नारान गोपाल ले नेवारी मात्र गीत नगएर नेपाली गीत गएर सारा नेपाली को मान जितेय्को  को गल्ति हो?"

नारानगोपालको जीवनी खोतल्ने हो र उनका समकालीन अन्य कलाकारसित दाँज्ने हो भने थाहा हुनेछ उनको संघर्षगाथा । प्रसिद्धिको सगरमाथा चुमेर पनि उनीसित स्वास्थोपचार गर्ने पैसा भएन । नातिकाजी, पुष्प नेपाली, रत्नदाश प्रकाश, शिवशंकर, कोइलिदेवि, नारानगोपाल, बच्चुकैलाश, प्रेमध्वज - (यिनीहरु केहि उदाहरण हुन जो नेवारै नेवार हुन) रेडियोले उनीहरुको पुरा नाम लिन पनि हिच्किचाए झै गरी थर कहिल्यै किन नभनेको ? अनि हरीप्रसाद रिमाल, धर्मराज थापा, भक्तराज आचार्य, मधु क्षेत्री जस्ता अनगिन्ती उदाहरण छन, जसका थर कहिल्यै पनि छुटाइएन ।

 

Wow. As if Arun Thapa, Haribhakta Katuwal and untold other "Khas" artists had good time. Where should we start? Even Bhanubhakta , the father of modern Nepali language, was in jail, Motiram Bhatta died in poverty, and so did Mahakabi Devkota, whose struggle during his last phase is well documented.

 

And wow again for being mother of all conspiracy theorists. So, Radio Nepal didn't say the thar of Newar singers? Premdhwaj Pradhan was always called Premdhwaj Pradhan as far as I know. Pushpa Nepali always used his sirname as Nepali. Natikaji-Shivasankar always used that name (may be emulating the fashion of Indian musicians who use their one name only, such as Pyarelal, Laxmikant, Shravan, Nausad etc). Koilidevi , not sure why her last name (I think is Mathema) is not often used. May be her choice. But Taradevi Karki is also only called Taradevi. Most likely, it was a matter of artist's own choice why Prakash Shrestha was called Prakash Shrestha, Dip Shrestha was always Dip Shrestha, Bhim Tuladhar and Sanjay Shrestha were always Bhim Tuladhar and Sanjay Shresthat but Bachchu Kailash was called Bachchu Kailash. yo kuro haina bhane proof paau.
