This year, Miss Nepal Zenisha Moktan participated in the event and as expected, she couldn’t win any titles. But, participation in itself was an achievement when compared to the last minute cancelation of last year’s Miss Nepal event.
Year: 2009
Khagendra proposed and kissed Rekha Thapa
Khagendra Thapa Magar, world’s shortest person (62 cm) is only 4.6 kg in weight. When somebody meets the 18-year-old guy, the person can not resist carrying him. This time it was actress Rekha Thapa who carried and kissed Khagendra. Khagendra returned the favor with numerous kisses and a marriage proposal.
The light-weight little guy Khagendra Thapa Magar is being an object of admiration among political leaders and film actors these days. Khagendra is collecting funds but, it looks like the political leaders were more concerned with carrying him rather than supporting financially. In my last post PM Nepal was carrying him on his lap.
After that, every major political leaders were seen photographed carrying Khagendra. Here is a collection of photographs of different leaders meeting Khagendra.
Desperate to get roles in movies ?
The 18-year-old beauty Sugam Sharma has come to Kathmandu from Chitawan with a dream to be a film actress. Sugam claims that she is very good in dancing and she had own numerous prizes in school competition. She has done some modeling and music videos in Chitawan. She also told that she is willing to “expose as much as the story demandsâ€Â.
Richa Ghimire marriage (Update – photos)
Richa would have been happy enough by ‘court marriage’ but her family and Shankar insisted in doing it in a more traditional fashion. Richa had a mehendi ceremony in which her friends and family applied mehendi on her hands and feet. Applying mehendi is an Indian tradition and it has encroached Nepali society in recent days.
Mt. Everest (Kala Patthar) to Copenhagen
Nepal government set a World Record by holding a cabinet meeting at Kala Patthar, near Everest base camp. The event was live broadcasted worldwide causing unprecedented media coverage. It was a successful event, even though most of the Nepali think it was an unnecessary expense and the transportation helicopters caused further environment degradation.
Now, it is time to take the decision made in the meeting to the international climate change summit in Copenhagen. The PM is going to the meeting with more than 60 people with him. He choose to ignore the experts’ suggestion to take only 5 people with him. He is given a 3 minutes time to talk at the summit.

Namrata Shrestha to host KTV awards?
The award show hosted by Kantipur TV is one of the show to gauge the performance of movies, actors and backstage personnel. I hope, somebody will nominate Namrata on the Most Scandalous Actress of 2009 followed by Pooja Lama.
Most of the cine artists want Namrata to come back in the entertainment industry. So they are pressuring her to present herself to the public. The acting of Namrata in her past movies Mero Euta Sathi Chha and Sano Sansar were liked by many and they don’t want to lose the rising star of Nepali Cinema.

Pooja Lama Loves her friend more than her husband
I thought the marriage was the happy ending. But, the latest news is not so promising. Poor Pooja, she should be having a pretty hard time.
Entertainment circle is heated with the gossip of difficulties in the relationship between newly married couple, Pooja Lama and Shishir Shyangtang.
Although, Pooja said that their relationship is as good as ever and they are not having any misunderstanding, Pooja is living with her friend Nisha Sunar instead of her newly married husband. Nisha Sunar is one of the best friends of Pooja and according to Pooja she is sick. Pooja says that Nisha’s husband is away and she doesn’t have anybody to take care of, so she has to live with Nisha.
That is ok, one should help friends in hard times. But, Pooja also claimed that the relationship between friends is more important than husband and wife’s relationship.

A fool-proof passport by April 1 ?
Pandey has written that current passport costs $0.82 to print. But, MRP in other hand might cost as high as $20 per passport. Hey, isn’t it only two lines of extra text that could be read by machine? If the cost includes the machine infrastructure then it might make sense.
