I don't know much about her other than the fact that she is apparently an actress back home.
Having said that, I did hear her talk about her finding a homeless Nepali. I wasn't sure what she meant by that, but I think she well clarified what her point was in this video. If the Nepali community in US is still mad at her for that statement, then they are just hating. She found a homeless guy and she is telling it as is. Don't pretend we don't have destitute Nepalis here.

As I was about to stop the video, she made a comment about absence of the big Nepali community while she was here. I don't understand this; was she expecting all the Nepalis to come there with flowers to welcome while she was there? Sure we might not have one binding body that brings us all together; it'd have been nice to have it but is that a problem if we don't have it? Nepali community in US has progressed geometrically over the last few years and it is impossible for the whole community to act in unison all the time. Even the ones who criticized her, are part of a very small fraction of Nepalis living here. Trust me, most of us don't give a hoot about what she is saying anyways.

But all in all, she was pretty clear on her interview (at least the first 5 minutes that I watched) and didn't seem like she deserves all the criticism.
