Our National Anthem to Change

We are grown up singing “Shree Man Gambhira Nepali” but now it’s time to remember another song for the Anthem. Due to the political changes in our country, the National Anthem is decided to be changed.

A song written by Pradeep Rai as known as “Byaakul Maila,”has been referred to as the new National Anthem. The song is like “Sayaau Thunga Phool Haami Eutai Mala Nepali” and it contains 5 paras and 47 words. It has been selected by the “National Anthem Selection Task Team” under the chairmanship of cultural analyst, Mr. Satya Mohan Joshi.

Mr. Joshi handed over the song to the “Cultural & Tourism minister” Mr. Pradeep Gyawali, at a press conference organized last Thursday. The song was selected among 1 thousand 2 hundred and 72 songs, without looking at the name of the lyricist.

However, the team has selected the song, it is yet to be finalized by the cabinet. There are still some controversies that the lyricist was a king’s supporter before. Now that his lyric is selected, some people are still not willing to grant his song as the “National Anthem”.
There is still some confusion whether the song will be recognized as the National Anthem or not.

Bista bags second bronze for Nepal

Deepak Bista bagged the second bronze medal for Nepal at the ongoing 15th Asian Games in Doha, Qatar.

Bista bagged the bronze medal in 75-kg category by defeating a Kuwaiti player in the quarter final on Friday. He, however, lost to a Qatari player in semi final, in what the Korean coach Kwon Hyouk claimed as biased refereeing.

After Manita Shahi won the first bronze medal on Thursday, this was the second medal for Nepal.

Bista is one of the most successful taekwondo players of Nepal. He has already won gold medal thrice in the South Asian games. He had also won a bronze medal in the previous Busan Asian games held four years ago.

Meanwhile, on Friday, Kanchhi Maya Koju completed her 10,000 meter running in 37 minutes 59.76 seconds. A silver medalist at Tenth South Asian Games, Koju came last in the race in Doha, which was won by a Japanese runner.

Poila Jana Paam Vs Maile Lyauna Paam

"Poila Jana Pam" is one song which has been bringing back the smiles on most peoples’ faces and at the same time criticisms have been flowing in. Sung by Komal Oli it is the title song of an album of the same name. and released under the label of Music Nepal.

Just recently, two artists -- Bimam Chhetri and Suman Budha – cashing in on the popularity of "Poila Jana Pam" have released a song titled "Maile Lyauna Pam" incorporated on the album of the same name, 'Maile Lyauna Pam'. The irony of it all is that 'Maile Lyauna Pam' is doing much better in the market.

All said and done, Music Nepal is now all geared up to file a case against Bimam Chhetri and Suman Budha. Komal states, "I have no grievance against Bimam and Suman. Their song is very entertaining but Music Nepal, from whom I had released 'Poila Jana Pam' are planning to register a complaint against them in court after some homework. They say that Bimam and Suman have copied the tunes of one of my songs titled "Tulsipurma Ma Janda" on this particular song' Maile Lyauna Pam', which is on my previous album 'Mal Mal Kiri' and which was also released by Music Nepal."

Though Komal is not making an issue out of the latest development, she has some grand ideas cooking up in her mind. She shares, "Soon, I will be releasing an album which would be a counter attack to "Maile Lyauna Pam". I am doing so not because I am angry but I believe that this would be rather interesting and entertaining. The song shall be called "K Ho Timro Naam, K Cha Timro Kaam, Palna Sakchau Sakdainau Kati Kamauchau Daam". The flavor of this track will be very jhaurey and will soon hit the music stands."

Shahi bags first medal for Nepal in Doha Asiad

Little Buddha's family have free time

The news of "Little Buddha" hit headlines in the national and international press last year. As the Buddha (real name "Ram Bahadur Bomjan"), who meditated for 10 months "without food and water" in a jungle here, vanished from the jungle in March last year, his parents -- who otherwise were busy giving interviews to the press -- have been living a quiet life these days.

During those days, Maya Devi, mother of Bomjan, used to be busy giving interviews to the national and international media. Nowadays, she has been utilizing her leisure time by cutting grass. "I am going to cut grass, as no one has been here for several days," said Maya Devi.

Last year, Bomjan left his home to meditate at the age of 16 without informing his family. After 10 months of meditation, Bomjan again left his place of meditation from Ratanpuri. Because of his absence in the jungle, this family spends days doing household chores.

The Axe 'Kammasaka' and The Karma's 'Karma'

The Axe's fifth album 'Kammasaka' is all set to release on December 6 under the label of Dhaulagiri Cassette Centre. If you remember, they had released their last album some two years back. The delay regarding this venture, is for sure have been noticed and now we are anxious to hear what they have come up with. If their first album is anything to go by as a yardstick, fans should expect another rocking album from the masters of rock.

Shiva Mukhiya, bassist and vocalist of 'The Axe' mentions that these days they have been working on promos of 'Kammasaka' and the shooting of the first music video will take place after about a week. The song is called "Euta Chithi Ko". Shiva cares to inform us that they shall be doing the pre-production of this video and as about who will be doing the post production works has still not been decided. Last but not the least, Shiva adds that the reason for the delay in releasing their fifth album is due to each of the band members involvement in their own personal affairs. Well…better late than never!

So far, Karma Band have released three very successful albums and lucky them and thanks to their music, whenever they release an album, they have been managing to create quite a buzz in the music circuits. However, it is only during the release of their album that they manage to hit the headlines, but after a couple of weeks, they hit an all time low.

"Since the past three months, 'Karma' has been doing nothing. The reason for this break is because when we release our new album, we want to do it with a bang! We also do not want our listeners to get wakka / dikka with us and that is why we tend to take a break once we are done with our album. Yes, these days we are not performing at any shows but that does not mean that we are sitting idle. We are working hard on our next release and that is how our time flies. But, once we release our new album, we are planning to do a tour. We shall be traveling to seven cities in Nepal and promoting our songs again. By January end, we will be releasing our new album 'Karma' under the label of SAV and on it we have incorporated rock, pop and folk pop numbers," declares Surendra.

KING KHAN denies spat with BIG B

Bollywood hero Shah Rukh Khan on Tuesday scotched media reports of his spat with megastar Amitabh Bachchan, saying that it was all baseless.

A section of the press had reported about the Bachchan-Shah Rukh cold war to which the actor said, "Yes, even I have read this in the newspapers. We are grown-up educated people and working professionals. In Hollywood, do you hear news like Tom Cruise bashing up Brad Pitt? Then why is such stuff carried by you here?"

Shah Rukh was at Hotel Lands End to announce his comeback to television as a new avtaar with the biggest game show Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC).

"I never left TV. The journey from Fauji, a serial on the small screen, to KBC is like a home-coming. This show will have a great emotional connection," Shah Rukh said.

He said it was unfair to compare him with Amitabh as the latter's contribution to the world of entertainment is immense. KBC will be aired in January next year from Monday to Thursday at 2100 hrs on StarPlus, Star Entertainment India CEO Sameer Nair said.

Akhtar and Asif cleared of Doping Offences.

A Pakistan tribunal has cleared cricket fast bowlers Shoaib Akhtar and Mohammad Asif of doping offences and lifted their long-term bans.

Akhtar had been banned for two years and Asif for one year in early November after the pair tested positive for the banned steroid nandrolone.

The cricketers were exonerated when the panel ruled that they had not had sufficient warning the supplements they were taking could be contaminated by the steroid.

Chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board-appointed appeals tribunal Justice Fakhruddin G Ebrahim, announcing the decision in Karachi, said the three-member commission had established that Akhtar and Asif were never advised against taking supplements.

Nor were they provided with any international or local publications warning them against the use of supplements and anti-doping measures.

"It is the considered view of this appeals committee by a majority of 2-1 that Shoaib and Asif have successfully established that they held an honest and reasonable belief that the supplements ingested by them did not contain any prohibited substances," the verdict said.

Both the bowlers had pleaded innocent to the charge of taking banned substances intentionally to enhance their performances and recover from injuries.

Shoaib and Asif had argued that they didn't commit any doping offence as they were not informed about the dangers of the supplements they were using being contaminated with banned substances like nandrolone.
