Prakash Dahal had been a controversial figure in the Nepali politics. Apart from being the son of one of the most influential person in the Nepali politics he was talked about for his personal relationships.
It is a sad incident and I wish the deceased soul rest in peace.
Prachanda is currently in Jhapa for the election campaign. He has reportedly returned back to Kathamndu as soon as he heard the news of his son’s demise.

Shortest artist in Nepal, Dipen Shah, has died on November 16, 2017 at the age of 19. He was admitted to the hospital after he had fever. According to the family sources, both of his kidneys had failed and he had also problem in his heart.
Born in 2055 in Bhimeshwor Municipality in Dolkha, Dipen had acted in a number of television serials. ‘Jhayaikuti Jhayai’ and ‘Chheu Na Tuppo’ were two of his most popular serials. In addition to TV serials, he had also acted Nepali movies. After debuting in ‘Sarathi’ he had also acted in ‘Joker’.
The 33-years-old director, Nilu Doma Sherpa, died on July 1, 2017 (read the news). The death of Nilu is termed suspicious because of unexplained events leading to her death. Here are some of the facts that have made the death suspicious:
Nilu was the first and the only film maker who had openly openly admitted that she was a lesbian. In a documentary she made she has told, “I am Nilu and I am a lesbian, homosexual, or gay, however you want to put it.” Watch the following video report for the details:
It is a very sad day for the Nepali film industry. A young and talented director has died of heart attack in her home on July 1, 2017. According to reports, Nilu complained about pain at around 2:00 AM. When she was rushed to the hospital at 8 AM in the morning she was already dead.
Video report about Nilu’s death:
Born in 1985, Nilu Doma Sherpa, debuted as a film director in the 2015 release movie, ‘How Funny’. The movie produced by ex-Miss Nepal, Malvika Subba, featured well known actors like Dayahang Rai, Priyanka Karki, and Keki Adhikari. The movie also featured journalist Rishi Dhamala in a guest role. Although the movie was not successful commercially, one of the songs of the movie had been very popular.

Asmita Sedhai, the wife of late Anil Adhikari (Yama Buddha) wasn’t seen at the last rituals held in Pashupati Aryaghat on January 28, 2016. Anil Adhikari was living at Asmita’s parental home in London at the time of his death. He was found dead at their bathroom in the morning of January 14.
Who is Anil Adhikari’s wife?
Asmita Sedai is a 25 years old UK resident girl of Nepali origin. She married Nepali rap singer Anil Adhikari, popularly known as Yama Buddha in 2013. After marriage, Yama Buddha went to UK in a dependent visa in 2014.
Marriage photo:
Yama Buddha family. Left – mother, father, and Anil Adhikari. Right – Resh Marahatta, his sister and his wife  Asmita at the end.
The question “Why did Yama Buddha committed suicide?” is still unanswered (at least, officially). The official report – post mortem report says that Anil Adhikari, Yama Buddha, had committed suicide. Although there was injuries in his jaws and he had taken some wine – there were no signs of anybody doing any foul play. The police has done the investigation and has rule out any issues.
But, a lot of conspiracy theories are going around. I think the story presented in the following video makes the most sense.
The deceased singer Yama Buddha, Anil Adhikari’s body being brought to Kathmandu on January 28, 2017 for the last rituals. The arrival is scheduled at 3:00 PM via Etihad Airlines.
Anil’s body will be kept in Pragya Bhawan for public display and last goodbye. In the evening of the same day, the last rituals will be conducted at Pashupati Aryaghat.
The report published online in the UK newspaper, Dailymail, has created a controversy about who saw Anil Adhikari for the first time in the bathroom. In earlier report a guy living in the house, Roshan Bhattarai, had claimed that he had seen Anil in the bathroom for the first time.
