 He
makes the term 'interviews' almost funny and go easy. He's good looks with dazzling vocal chord. Look into his 'Voice' - the album and you can see why
fans from world over are telling us "We need sanup on babbaal talkies". One interview with him and it's as clear as a day why ladies, with their
boyfriends, are asking to buy his albums. Amdist this hysteria sorrounding him, he sees so serene, so untouched by it all. This handsome and
soft-spoken singer is a must watch in comin days "..
Wel come to Babbaal talkies.
- Thank you so much, great pleasure with you
guys. A big hey to all the viewers who have been reading me.
So, how much have u changed since "voice"? How was the reaction from both
outside and inside the industry?
- First of all, believe me, I must say nothing has changed within myself. After 'voice', lots of realization
has been improved within me and my singing. Thank-x to all the listener who have admired me and my work so far.
 Please keep going......
- Reaction was quite
okey and it's positive, and liveup to that's of my expectation. And to be honest, all the friends and seniors , inside the industry, have also been
immensely supportive.
what made u to get in the music scenario?
- I actually don't know what pushed me upon at the risk of
sounding harsh, I must admit that nothing , but music, within me, somewhere inspired me a lot, since I was a child.
It's no more secret
that you have a sweet voice but proper appereciation has not come your way yet, what may the reason behind?
- Definately! I think every
singer must have his/her repetoire, and within these repetoire, it is obvious to have judgements in a proper way, so I belive that I must increse my
repetoire.
Any great work doing these days ?
- Not yet, but planning some, soon.
What makes you excite- a good
lyric or a good melody ?
- Being a singer, I am always facinated by sounds, and again writing is also an art, so I don't want to
descriminate, but want to let everyone know that I am very choosy when it comes to lyrics selection.
Who do u think your musical
fantasices are?
- There are a lots. Sometimes I fantacize that I am somewhere between classical period and learning somthing from Mozart, and
sometimes I fantasize that Al-ded-Meola has come to my room. Besides, My fav. are A R Rehman, G3(Jeo-satriani, Steve-Vei, Eric jonhson), Rajendra
Prasanna(Famous Indian Classical Flautist) and many more, There are many in my mind, But still they are Superb.
Whom do you listen in
Nepali music Front?
- Bhakta Raj Acharya , As a singer, I adore him a lot, he is a living legend. As a musican Amar Gurung is fantastic than
the rest.
Well, We all know that you are a professional music teacher too, tell us something about that.
- I give some music
lessions at times, but , to be honest, I am not a music teacher but a singer teacher at St. Mary's high school.
Are you satisfied with
the reaction you got from ur fans?
- Of course I am, Appriciation is something that encouraged me to devote myself more in music, and I am
level best to provide something different than the usuals.
Do you belive that trainnings are needed for the singers?
- Depends
on self Realization. If one knows his/her voice and how it sounds, its very important to realize the importance of trainings. But I also belive that
music is not completly bounded with trainings its all about how one percives from his/ her sight.
 Tell Ur Attitudes

the person, in one line, how would you define?

Voilence in the face of revolution..
