SMARIKA


With A Noble Cause

The proceeds from a new album go for handicapped children

By A CORRESPONDENT

In what is seen as a pioneering attempt, singer Situ Kharel handed over proceeds from sales of her first CD/cassette album "Smarika" (In Memorium) for a noble cause. Situ Kharel's daughter, Smarika, handed over a cheque of Rs 51,001 to Principal of Navjyoti Center, Sister Anne Marie, for the welfare of the mentally handicapped children attending the center last week. The school intends to develop a toy library for the children with this donation.

The money was collected from the advance sale of the album in the U.K. The album "Smarika" includes ten modern songs by different lyricists, including Kiran Kharel. The album, produced by Smarika Media Service, is marketed by Music Nepal. The songs were recorded at Symphony Studio.

The debut album by Situ Kharel is an indication of her singing talent. It is a matter of joy for music lovers that a melodious voice has emerged in the market looking for some creativity.
