I will try not to be partial, but have to admit that Mahato's portfolio looks much impressive than Chaudhari's.

But let's be real, Mahato was also a beneficiary of right time right place; a newly formed country with connections with powerfuls. But for a person who is not a native Russia, to be able to control so many industries and wealth proves he also deserved it.

No doubt Mahato has more wealth than Chaudhari and doesn't seek Forbes popularity.

Another reality is that these two didn't become billionaire merely from their business in Nepal. Mahato's business ventures are well known; but Chaudhari expanded his wealth by overseas investments in hotel business. Nepal is yet to create her own billionaire, who actually profited from ventures within the country.
