Karina had acted in the play titled ‘Beimani Kaal’ meaning Ruthless Death in English. The ruthless death actually took her away only after a couple of months of the festival that ran from February 9 to February 15, 2015. Award winning director Navaraj Khadka had directed the play presented by Charumati English School.

According to Aryan Neupane of Shailee Theater, Karina’s house in Siphal was badly damaged by the earthquake and had crushed her along with her brother and her mother.

Karina was studying in grade 6 in Charumati English School.

May the soul of Karina, her brother and her mother rest in peace! The loss of budding actress is a huge loss to the Nepali theater.
