Kumar Subba arrives for May Paleti
Kumar Subba, the Darjeeling based veteran singer of Nepali Adhunik has arrived in Kathmandu to prepare for his Paleti concert scheduled for the 30th of May, Friday.
Subba is still remembered for his four decade old evergreen songs like "hey phool chundera lane ho…", "Sarangi ko taar le…" and "Deurali ka thiti ho…" and more.
Though a bit away from lime-light, Kumar Subba has been privately living with music all these years and still has the same charm in his singing. Earlier, he had performed for Paleti in May 2006, when he was accompanied by composer – Karma Yonzon.
This time Kumar Subba is accompanied by Darjeeling based musician Chandan Lomjel and they have started their rehearsals for the coming Paleti Show.
"I am fortunate that I have been able to work with veteran lyricists and composers. I always had an unfulfilled dream to preserve all these creation. I am indebted towards Paleti for making it possible. I am extremely happy and honoured to be back at Paleti," said Kumar.
