I ALWAYS TRUST MY INSTINCT

By LB THAPA

Swosti Chhetri is a promising model of Pokhara. Her captivating appearance on Ncell and Himstar has already made her known among the people of all walks of life. In addition, she has a dozen of music videos to her credit. And to her satisfaction, all the music videos fared well. Early success in the music videos put her in the limelight, and she became the cynosure of all eyes. Swosti has always been very hard-working and punctual in her endeavors.

"For me, time is very important because it is the time that makes us or ruins us. It is therefore if we respect time then time will always be on our side. More than luck I give importance to hard work because luck is merely a chance and you cannot wait for it by doing nothing. However, if you put effort by giving a damn to chance or luck I am sure success will come out of your efforts" opined Swosti.

Swosti had stepped into the field of modeling quite early on. Modeling was her passion and she wanted to take it seriously. Along with modeling, she was very serious about her education. She successfully managed to pursue her passion as a model and study simultaneously. Her success on both fronts modeling and study made many girls jealous of her.

“The modeling bug had bitten me early on. I was then hardly a teenage girl but I was already very serious about the modeling. After I passed my SLC exam, I decided on my career and it was modeling. I was reading various newspapers, and magazines and browsing the internet to enlarge my mental horizon about the craft of modeling. About that time I realized that I should also take an interest in acting. The reason was that I began receiving many offers for music videos. I wasted no time and began learning acting from various sources possible. I had always been confident in my ability to learn new things at the earliest” revealed Swosti.

It was Swosti’s talent that she grabbed a flood of opportunities. This is absolutely true that at the onset of my modeling career, Swosti did not experience much hardship like many new models. All credit goes to her talent because her every bit of performance was appreciated by the experts and in the end whatever success she received was the fruit she deserved.  

One more opportunity came on her way when she was invited by Aagantuk Kharel to play a model’s role in ‘Raja ko kami’. She accepted the offer and played the role of a model. The music video was a success and this success added one more feather in her cap. By this time Swosti's demand had increased dramatically and she was offered various music videos. However, Swosti was careful in choosing quality video songs only. Later she accepted to play in Raja Sahil’s ‘Kati Ramro Face’, Suraj Shrestha’s Nayan ko Jadu, D-Morcha’s Pahile ta timi.  Her much-hyped video was Sworup Raj’s ‘Chautarima’. Swosti's appearance as a model for many popular brands helped her known all over the country. Swosti herself accepts the fact that modeling has always helped her to draw potential music video producers. Today Swosti is an established and a much popular name in the field of music videos and modeling.

Taking two different activities at the same time is of course a challenging task indeed. However, in the case of Swosti she was seriously involved in modeling, acting, and college study. She had to manage three things at the same time. However, it was tough but she managed it successfully.
 
“I never took college study for granted. I studied hard and completed my graduation with a flying color. The only grouse that eats my vital is my parent's dislike of modeling. Slowly but steadily I am being successful in changing my parents’ opinion about modeling. The success and appreciation I have received for my work is the only strength I can proud of today” said Swosti with a sense of confidence.

Many people hold conservative attitudes in our society. They do not think modeling is a good profession to choose as a career. However, now times are changing and many people of our society have accepted modeling as a possible career. For newcomers, I would like to suggest that while taking an interest in modeling they should equally give full attention to study. In the end, it is education that brings confidence in them. Let's not forget that it is only education that enables us stronger and more confident in life. And one more thing to be noted here is we must walk with the pace of time to be successful in life.

RISING HIGH AGAINST THE GUSHING WATER

Image
Sita Thapa is a professional rafting and kayaking trainer of Nepal. Among five she is one of the pioneer woman rafters. Ms. Thapa is from Pokhara.    By LB THAPA Perhaps you might have seen some white-skinned Westerners sailing their rafts on the turbulent waves and battling against the deadly ripples, which can toss away their rafts at any moment. Well, let me help you to remember this scene---you must have seen all this on your TV screen. Am I right?      Quite a few would have this opportunity to see these rafters entering into the water, setting up their gears, and finally getting ready to challenge the gushing waters. Unless you are a rafter himself, you can rarely catch a glimpse of these people from a close distance. Without any doubt, rafting is not an ordinary adventure sport like paragliding, bungee jumping, and parachute jumping---rafting is above all.   Muscular strength and perfect skill are a must. But if I tell you that there is a young and beautiful lash from Pokha

DEALING WITH DEADLY SNAKES

Though Prabin does not get any financial assistance, his love for snakes pushes him to catch them to safety. Photos: All photos by Prabin   By LB THAPA Snakes are one of the most important reptiles found in our environment. They are of course an inseparable part of our environment because they play an important role to maintain the ecological system. This shy creature does not like human presence and therefore it prefers quiet places to spend most of its time.   Despite the fact that snakes invariably avoid human beings, most of the snakes die at the hands of human beings than other causes. Most of the time snakes come to human residential areas to find their favorite food, rats. That is the time when snakes and human beings come face to face and as usual, during such time many snakes are killed---without knowing whether they were poisonous or not.   In this write-up, I am going to introduce a young man from Pokhara whose selfless love for snakes has made him a local celebrity.

FROM SUICIDE ATTEMPT TO LIVING FOR A CAUSE

The life story of Sandesh Subedi can inspire many people. Photo: Sandesh Subedi By LB THAPA Falling into the pit of depression invariably leads to nowhere. We must have seen or heard about many known and unknown people who became victims of depression and the tragic end of their lives.  Sandesh Subedi’s story is no different. But, what is special about his life is his fight against depression and a dramatic change that brought a U-turn in his life. What makes it even more special is he got victory over depression and suicidal mentality without any doctors, psychiatrists, or medicine’s help.   His story of falling into the cobweb of depression and losing all faiths in himself had pushed him to a broken point. Soon he realized that death was much dearer than life and he was on the brink of committing suicide.  Well, can you imagine anything like this in your life? I am not telling you any fictional story. I am going to tell you the story of a young man, full of life, whose life was s

MANAUSEWA ASHRAM POKHARA: Helping the helpless

  MANAU SEWA ASHRAM POKHARA Helping the helpless LB Thapa Ever since Manausewa Ashram came into existence in 2012, the Ashram has been doing great work. Now the Ashram has become the home of several men and women who are not capable of fending themselves. Had the Ashram not brought them to its home, they would have been living on the street--- unnoticed and unattended.   Seeing the true dedication of the people behind running this Ashram, now even our government has started helping them with infrastructure development activities. Lately, my wife and I visited one of the branches of Manausewa Ashram located at Chhorepatan, opposite Devi’s Falls. We spent a quality time with the people living in the Ashram. We offered food for them and a little financial help for the construction of a new Ashram building in Hemja.
