After marrying the pilot boyfriend, Santosh Sapkota, Sumina had cut-off herself from the film industry and her film industry friends. She hasn’t been seen in any public functions after that.

Recently, I have found out that Sumina has already become the mother of a daughter. The daughter, born on the Christmas of 2015 is already 9 months old now. Sumina and her husband Santosh Sapkota, a pilot of Sita Air, are not seen in any film programs or public events.

Saugat Malla and Shristi Shrestha affair rumour, is it true?

Rumours are just rumours, totally unreliable. When facts are doctored and altered to support the rumour, the rumour’s reliability goes down the drain. That is what has happened to the recent rumour of affair between Miss Nepal 2012, Shristi Shrestha and Haku Kale of ‘Loot’, Saugat Malla. Watch the following video report on what had happened:

I read a gossip article in an online film-magazine that Saugat Malla and Shristi Shrestha were seen together watching ‘Jhumkee’. The report says that they had tried their best to keep themselves from the prying eyes. The photo shared in the report doesn’t show faces and there is no other proof on the claim. I would have believed in the report if the second photo of the report weren’t doctored.
