Mampi Ghosh, The New ‘Pawankali’

'Pawankali' a popular program being broadcast from Katipur Television, has managed to get quite a lot of viewer ship lately, thanks to the new anchor . This program was first hosted by Luniva Tuladhar followed by Tara Kandel and now the Bengali beauty Mampi Ghosh has taken up the mantle of continuing the presentation of this very show.

Mampi replaced Tara as 'Pawankali' since Tara had to quit to pursue her further studies abroad. "When I was offered to do the show at first I hesitated, but later decided that I should give it a shot! Initially, I had a little difficulty in getting the accent as well as the typical attitude of Pawankali right. I watched the earlier episodes continuously for almost two days at a stretch. It was only on the third day that I was all geared up to face the camera as the new Pawankali. Taking up 'Pawankali' was a challenge in itself. Now, that I have started, I am also learning a lot of things everyday! I take comments and suggestions in good stead and I make sure not to repeat my mistakes." She further adds, "It is only natural for people to compare me with the previous Pawankalis and at times this new Pawankali might not have the same effect on people but I promise to work hard and not to disappoint the 'Pawankali' fans and well-wishers in the days to come."

Pawankali aka Mampi Ghosh also works as a radio jockey at Radio Nepal. She has been presenting programs like 'Fool Times', 'Nishana Achuk', 'Gharsangi' and 'Bollywood Express' for quite some time now. She started her career as an anchor at Hits FM where she worked for two years. She then worked at Green Productions and hosted programs for Nepal FM. She also did the show 'Timro Sur Mero Geet' for Nepal Television.
