I wonder if friends here have discovered yet the wonderful Nepali couple, Udaya and Manila Sotang, who have lately been singing these great melodious songs. Recently got hold of their CD and have been listening to them incessantly. The lyrics aren't classics - nothing like Bhupi Sherchan's "aljhecha kyare pachhauri" that Narayan Gopal sang or even Rajendra Thapa's "jheer ma uninu" by Deep Shrestha, but I've found the Sotang duo simple and elegant, keeping me great company in a humid, lonely town :) kahan pokhinchha aansu, jaba samma dukhdaina ghau kahan chaskinchha mana, jaba samma jaldaina chhati -------- bhatkiyera hera timi latha-linga kasto hunchha afai tukri hera ajha bhata-bhunga kasto hunchha -------- baluwa ko ghara jasto hunna sasto kasaiko mana -------- Hope Uday and Manila grow to become Nepal's answer to Jagjit and Chitra. Are there other lonely hearts who this couple's voice has touched? |

Paschim, we share an interest :) and thought maybe you would like to know how these two sprang up into public eye. Udaya Udaya Sotang is from Darjeeling. He went to St. Roberts High School and was discovered at one of the annual concerts. He was associated with Kala Mandir in Darjeeling from his school days. And in fact, Udaya should give credit to a great musician - Mani Kamal Chettri, who brought him into the limelight in his early years. Udaya was known as one of the people who could sing Narayan Gopal's songs almost to the T. Manila She was also a local Darjeeling talent who should be grateful Kala Mandir and it's many great artists for promoting her and giving her the opportunity to become what she is now. She started by singing in this troupe along with Udaya. Apparently, this was where they met (I was long gone from the Kala Mandir scene by then). The jodi was sur ma sugandha! :) And of course, needless to say, I am ardent fan of theirs! I always keep my eye out for these two :). Ghar ko chano k bhayo k bhayo...... .....pheri timro kura chalyo.....Balla balla pureko ghau ma........ :) Out of their songs, these two are my favs. :). On another totally different note, you might find it interesting that some of the famous singers that you hear of now were borne out of that little place in Darjeeling, Kala Mandir. Namely, Daisy Baraily, Kunti Moktan (kunti sundas) and her husband, Gopal Yonzon, Karma Yonzon, Sophia Shrestha (Deep Shrestha's wife), Sarala Gurung etc. The list is endless!! Cheers |

one of my favorite song is 'manko baadhlai baadhna sikuh pagali natra bhijne chha timro pareli' Suna, I think Sukmit Gurung is one of'em who really made it too. BTW, have you listened to my song that I sang with sukmit? Listen to it when you get a chance. harek tyo pahl |

on 16-May-02 09:35 AM
Sukmit Gurung was not in the Kala Mandir crowd (at least to my knowledge, she's from Kalimpong but I'm sure she is also associated with some musicians from Darjeeling or was). No I haven't heard your song, I will later on hai? |

They are one of the best duo I have ever listened to. " Aadhi bato hinde pachi Timi sita bheta bhayo, Jindagi ko hamro yatra Tyahi bata suru bhayo sano modaima..." Another one... " Koi boli ma rasa huncha Koi boli ma risa Yai boli le garda puichan Manisa le bisha rajai manisha le bisha..." And Another one... "Maan cha nai bahiri Chalan yasko bujhna garo cha... Bhijeko ban ma philingo udi Dadelo chaldai chaldaina Ghanista yadi hinunai raicha tyo tarera tadaina..." I would love to watch them in concert.... Adios from California |

My wife and I also are big fan of Uday and Manila Sotang's songs. I personally didn't like their earlier songs, but things have changed so much since their popular album "MUSKAN"... I think I started liking them after their shift toward gazals. Particularly, in this song, they have put so much into Raman Ghimire's words and Nyuhn Bajracharya's composition; Aadhee baato hinde pachi Timee sita bheta bhayo, Jindagi ko hamro yatra Tyehi baata suru bhayo sano modaima... Just melodious! |

Paschimji: Living in a 'biraano shahar', listening to 'birahi geet', even in Hindi and Punjabi, what's wrong with you bhaneko? Too lachrymose a soul? -- Ma ta lokgeet ko fyaan. I got this CD of Prem Raja Mahat. "Hiuchuli Maa Hiu". "Salala Paani Yo Jindagaani Bagera Jaane Chatta Maayaalu..." is awesome. Kumar Basnet ko lokgeet jammai awesome. Khem Gurung ko Waari Jamunaa Paari Jamuna ko jammai geet awesome. (Though the fact remains that I can't even sing Waari Jamunaa Paari Jamuna..) I have so many casettees without covers whose lokgeets are jammai awesome. Sorry that I don't know the names of so many singers who made those wonderful lokgeets.One example: "Nayaa Baaneshwar, Nabolne Maayaalaai Bolaaideu Launa Parmeshwar!" . "Viva La Lokgeet!" , Suna am I right in this French sentence?:-) Btw, how come I don't know any folksongs from Sikkim/Darjeeling? |

Suna: I think Shila Bahadur Moktan is Kunti Sundas's husband, not Gopal Yonjan. Actually Renchin Yonjan is Gopal's wife. As we all know, Renchin is now working as an advisor of Keshav Sthapit in building parks and the greenary in Kathmandu City. |

LOL binay I didn't say Gopal Yonzon was Kunti's hubby. And I recall Shilabahadur from his days in Darjeeling as well. He used to sing khalikhutta on the stage. I don't know who Gopal Yonzon's wife is. |

"Naach-chyau maichyang, timi damphu ko talai-ma. Maya timi laidyau malai, bihey garchu aaune saalai ma." I think this folk song originated in Darjeeling. There are more, I just can't recall from top of my head at this moment. ====x==== Can you, Suna, tell us more about Kala Mandir? I have always heard of it, but don't know much about it. Are Amber Gurung, Gopal Yonzon, and their dautaris also the products of this Kala Mandir? I will make it a point to visit this venerable institution, if it is still there, during my next visit home. ====x===== It is interesting how us Darjeelingeys are so zealous and protective of our Nepali heritage, much more so than Nepal ko Nepalis in my opinion. I remember how hurt we felt when some sonofabitch defaced Bhanbhakta ko statuette at Chaurasta (main chowk in Darj). So hurt that we had a huge riot because of it. Now we have built a larger than life, full figurine, Bhanubhakta ko saalik. Not only that, now Nepali is one of the official languages of India. ====x==== I saw Sikkim being mentioned somwhere, probably in a different thread. I don't think "India le Sikkim khayo." I think "Nepali le Sikkim khayo." If you go to Sikkim now, you will find that 75% of the population there is Nepali. The original inhabitants are now a minority. And the referendum to join Indian Union was primarily driven by Nepalis. That is exactly why Bhutan is so scared of Nepalis. Apparently half of Bhutanese population is of Nepali origin. What if this half decides to depose Jigme Singe Wangchuk, call a referendum and join Indian Union? Not an impossible scenario. ====x==== Now I have to run home for lunch and listen to Uday & Manila Sotang. If Binay likes their songs, they must be really good. Hehehehe. |

Sangey, don't you think your comments were little bit strong, and tinged with racial view? The accession of Sikkim to India was a treacherous act whoever did it in Sikkim. Nepalese in Nepal condemned it vehemently, u know. It was sad enough that you gave non-patriots a communal name(Nepali), yet you moved further to insinuate that the tyrannical regime of Jigme was justified in its expulsion of Nepali population in the hypothetic fear. For your info, Bhutanese king has a thousand times better relationship with India than any Nepali ever had. And in 1949, they pretty much gave their sovereignty to India anyway. Btw, I have no clue who Uday and Manila Sotang are. Looks like I missed a lot. |

Suna, thanks for the info. Darjeeling has been a great contributor to Nepali music. But it's also much more than that. Some hastis in Nepali literature are also from there: Dharanidhar Koirala, Parasmani Pradhan, Indra Bahadur Rai, etc. And I don't know if Lil Bahadur Bista who wrote "Basain" is also from there. That novel enthralled me when I was really young. Not many people know this, but Nepal's first Chief Justice, the Honourable Mr. Pradhan, was also from Darjeeling. He was invited to Nepal to "set up" our Supreme Court and lay down the basics of our legal system by BP Koirala, who as a very young lawyer had interned under Pradhan in Darjeeling before founding the Nepali Congress. I visited Darjeeling after high school via Illam, and loved the place. Very warm people. And their collective fondness for Nepali culture - irrespective of ethnic origin - was very impressive. Nobody cares the significance of Asar 29 in Nepal anymore, but in Darjeeling, our early poet from Ramgha, Tanahun, Bhanubhakta, is accorded a hero's celebration, I heard. ----- Biswo, haalat kharaab chha. Aru dherai ke bhanun? Have been silently waiting for San's matrimonial section to go up :) Yeah, I like lokgeet too. Mahat's "saalai ko paatai le, diye khanthe maya ko daine haataile" was good. I found Khem Gurung's Waari-Jamuna good, but slightly over-rated, but liked song no. 4 immensely (can't remember the words) in his Jeevan-II CD. ----- Rest, thanks for sharing your admiration for Uday and Manila. Nepali politics may suck, but our music rules. And we must promote all our talents unconditionally. |

Okay, just listened over lunch to that song no. 4 from Khem Gurung's Jeevan II album which I couldn't name earlier. It's "ghumda ghumdai..." A beautiful dohori, that's also unusually long. One sample verse: sirupate khukuri ma laaha chha ki chhaina ni lai lai ho basisake timro ankha ma thaha chha ki chhaina ni lai lai ho tara maya khola paari, maya waari ho... Btw, have people wondered why so many Nepali folk songs routinely have this line where a lover laments his inability to unite with his love who is staring at him from across the khola? Poor kholas are always blamed for being a cruel obstacle to a blissful union. I mean how lame an excuse can that be? Just build a bridge, or learn how to swim, damn it! |

I was kinda surprize but, I found the whole MUSKAN album in Janaki Pant's site (btw, her site has great collections, kudos Janaki!) http://www.nepalisong.net/muskan.html Wished these were in MP3 though. Maybe it's realplayer's drawback, I couldnot listen to some of the songs. Re. the contribution from Darjeeling to Nepali music and literature, let me add few more to the list by Suna (beyond the Kalamandir circle) and Paschim in a random order; Music: Ambar Gurung, Aruna Lama, Shanti Thattal, Ranjit Gazmare, Sharan Pradhan, Dibya Khaling, Mani Kamal Chhetri (Great composition for some of Aruna Lama's songs and Ram Krishna Dakal's great song called HIUNCHULI MA HINU BAGYO THAK KHOLAMA PANI), Kumar Subba (love his HEY PHOOL CHUNDERA LAYO), Dawa Gyalmo..... Literature: Agam Sing Giri, Surya Bikram Gyanwali, From Aasham; Lil Bahadur Chhetri, Hari Bhakta Katuwal, Abhinash Shrestha (I guess he was born there ?), Sikkim: Danny, Bhanu Ramudamu, Thupten Bhutia (new comer with great talents), Lasmit Rai... These are the names I could remember off the head at this moment.... It would be nice to know more.. On a side note, I agree with Biswo. What Sangey said is oversimplification. Yes, Nepali are the dominant ethnic group in Sikkim, but it was Lendupe Dorje, the Speaker of the assembly, who had the main role to play. What I know is that India took advantage of volatile political situation that was creeping after the King got married with an American and the people were little frustrated with the whole thing. I might NOT know the historical details though, I must admit. |

Biswo, you are free to interpret my words whichever way you want. I really don't care. But I did not mean it that way. Just to clarify my points, let me elaborate a little. The popular movement against Chogyal(King of Sikkim) had as much backing from Sikkimese of Nepalese origin as from Indira Gandhi. In 1973 the bureaucrats, again mostly of Nepalese origin, planned to overthrow the monarchy and bring it to an end. With significant help from New Delhi, this was achieved in 1975. Later, the referundum was held and with almost unanimous support Sikkim joined the Indian Union (how free the polls were is another issue). Now whether you call it a treacherous act or democratization, that depends on which lense you wear. I guess from Chogyal's perspective, it was a deception beyond belief. In one single day of April, his feaudal autocratic rule was terminated. But if you ask Nar Bahadur Bhandari or even Pawan Kumar Chamling to reflect in their state's modern history, you will probably get a different view. Now what I am saying is, this could be seen as a precedent by Bhutanese Royalty and hence has given them an excuse, as feeble as it may be, to do what they have done for past 10/20 years. Did I say it justifies the human rights abuses and systematic ethnic cleansing they are doing? By all accounts NO. But that's how the other camp may see it as. Politics ko kura jati lambayo tyati lambincha. I think I will leave this as it is now. |

Ha ha! That was quite funny Paschim...good thought though! I guess "khola" is the essence of love in the context of Nepal because the difficulty in crossing the khola makes the hearts grow fonder. Just imagine how boring it would be had it not been for the khola nalaas of Nepal especially for two lovers, life would be monotonous, wouldn’t it? It becomes a huge challenge for lovers to meet each other because one is “khola waari” and the other “khola pari” that causes the intense desire to be with each other at any cost and that makes life more interesting! Or perhaps the lyricists must be tired of sitting at home and churning out words so h/she goes and sits on top of a cliff overlooking the “khola” that gives him the inspiration to write such songs. Well, whatever it is, I guess it’s upto listeners like you and me to feel the depth of the song and makes us swim to reach the other side thus conquering the khola as well as the hearts of our loved ones. |

Well said paschim! In love, as in life, action surely counts more than word. So, for the bolder ones, build a damn bridge and cross that river, or learn how to swim. After all, women quite often prefer chivalrous men when it comes to love, no matter how much of a pretense exists for the affectionate and sensitive kind. There is however this historical preoccupation with "unattainable" love, in Nepali songs surely, but also plenty in western ones. Two lovers on that "Grecian Urn" with their overstreched hands--their fingers almost touching but not quite! Makes for a good drama! The khola analogy in Nepali songs surely follows the same idea. Yet there is hope for the faint at heart: the kholas and nadi-nalas are so desperately polluted and receded that those unwilling to build a bridge or learn how to swim need just to walk over it to cross. You'd be surprised to find out that it wasn't so deep after all. |

I infer that Dilasha is actually quite well versed in this art of shouting from khola-waari to her priye who is panicking on the other side, as her explanation of the "khola conspiracy" is quite convincing. Tara, Pokhara ma ta tarnu parne khola chhaina ni? Ani, Phewa ma dunga chali halchha. Sunaunus na hajur kahan khelnu bhayo tyesto khola-dohori? Gandalf, I take it from your romantic explanation that some headway is finally being made on the proposed conquest of that particular Cypriot heart? Brief me on e-mail, will you? :) |

:) Paschim, didn't you say you've been to Pokhara and had a wonderful time there? Were you too busy floating on phewa lake that you totally forgot about the mesmerizing Seti khola? and even Kaali khola which I suppose you haven't seen. Well, I am totally inexperienced in the tact of "khola dohori" stuff, but I did enjoy to the fullest, those exciting adventures I had with friends crossing the Seti khola not to meet anyone but to prove ourselves as courageous beings, or even walking on the banks and sometimes on those huge stones trying to explore the beauty of the khola. And kaali khola is where I used to go for picnics and swimming with friends Ah! those were the days! the blissful days! |

I mean the lyrics are not at all classics, not an NG doing a Bhupi or anything, but the unique melodies of this couple are great. Highly recommended to lonely souls suffering from the disease of boredom, hoping that the lull is just preceding a romantic storm :) |

Sangey Bro, I think your understanding of Sikkim's history is a little rusty and even biased...but that is not very unusual from an Indian citizen (I assume you from Dorjeling, or Darj as you prefer). Let me remind you, there was no mass public movement against the Chhogyal King, it was all instigated by Indian intelligence agencies. Riots to justify the deployment of Indian forces. The vote in the parliament was then cooked up by pro Indian lobby with Indian forces all around. And for your information, the local agents of India were not people of Nepali origin, but Tibetans. The chief conspirator being Lendup Dorje! People of Nepali origin actually were on the nationalist side and wanted to keep Sikkim independent, the former chief minister Nara Bahadur Bhandari was one of the main person advocating against annexation by India. So to provide historically false justification for the Bhutanese king's ethnic cleansing is unfortunate on your part...ammma bro, yesto rods history pani yha deni? Aba yesto jhoor guff nadeu la som!

And sgy! For once I will have to side with Sikkim on the issue of Sikkimese politics during the late 1960s and 70s. It was never the Nepalese but the Indians who instigated most of the problems in Sikkim but Sikkim, your allegation that Nepalese in Darjeeling would have a very biased view of Sikkim is not true and is rather the contrary.

Just returned from Nepal and of course, I brought a brand new CD by Uday and Manila with me. It's called "UNI ANI MERO ATMAKATHA". The title of their latest album sounds similar to their previous album OO RA MA BHITRAKO KATHA, but their songs in this album are little different. Once again, the couple have come up with melodious numbers. I really liked the first song "timi bina bancha garho bhayo" and "samayaka palharu". All the songs are written by Dawa Pakhrin who lives in Kalingpong, I believe. Speaking of Kalingpong and Darjeeling, a PURBELI friend of mine took me to a place where lots of Darjeelingey living in Kathmandu usually hang out. It's called ND restaurant near Pako New Road and they have really delicious pork MOMOs. The place itself is pretty ordinary.... but hey, it's better than MOMO king, Bakery, Chu-phang, gilinche and DDs |
