Prashant wins, Nepali Communities erupts with joy
Monday, September 24th, 2007
At last Prashant Tamang made it. He won the title of Indian Idol. More than 7 crores sms votes were received by both contenstants. After he won the title, he thanked every nepali around the globe.
Soon after Prashant was announced winner by Bollywood hunk/star John Abraham, along with the Darejeeling and Delhi audiences, Kathmandu erupts with joys. Instantly people came to streets singing and dancing, fireworks started to balst. Vehicles hunked and people started to go gaga. Mobile services went down due to traffic. Why it won’t, afterall everyone were trying to share the news. Kathmandu was not ready to sleep so soon (And my friend was complaining she couldn’t sleep because of jubilant celebration).
Darjeeling was all set to celebrate and the party mood didn’t fade out easily. Television footages showed Darjeeling dancing and joying. Prashant has bridged all barriers between the caste, race and ethnicity. His music has at last united all Nepalis around the globe.
Prashant sang “Bir Gorkhali” and soon after he won, he wore Nepali Dhaka Topi. It shows that watever citizenship he got, his heart is true Nepali.
This kind of self jubilant celebration was seen last time after we, the people brought down Royal rule and established Loktantra. After around 17 months, people have another reason to celebrate. Nepal is now in clash of race, creed, caste etc. Prashant’s magic was able to erase this division. Lets hope, like this, we all will be able to remain together and delete the barriers and can make our Nepal prosperous and developed.
Now he’s all set to rock Kathmandu. He is coming to Kathmandu for concert program soon. So Prashat mania is not going to be over soon. You rock Prashant!!
