New Year’s Eve with Deep Shrestha
by Rajesh KC
Time: 1645
Date: April 12, 2007, Thursday
Audience: Approximately 300
Program: An evening with Deep Shrestha
Venue: Rimal Theater of Gurukul
I have attended almost all of Deep Shrestha’s concerts in the last few years. Being his songs’ fan, I used to take his photos in his every performance. Actually camera disturbs me during the concert as it diverts my concentration towards lighting, singer’s expression and mesmerizing audience. I usually get busy than a singer and musicians. But this time I decided to leave my camera in the car to listen to Deep attentively. I sat on the rug in front. As soon as he starts with his first song ‘Ma Pattharko Devata Hoina’, the audience clapped in time to the music. But I couldn’t hold myself from rushing to get my camera… I actually wanted to share this moment with you in PHALANO.

Adding some humor with amusing old stories behind his songs, Deep followed his songs with Basanta Thapa’s ‘Kahanbaata Lyaaun Ma’ and ‘Har Raat Sapanima’ by Viplob Pratik.


‘Ma ta Pahiro Bhitra Chhu’… Deep and his song writer Rajendra Thapa
Deep also performed Bishwombhar Pyakuryal’s ‘Bishwas Gara‘, Raman Ghimire’s ‘Eutai Baato’, Bhairav Nath Rimal’s ‘Jhaskiechha Mana Mero’, ‘Saainlibari Chiyabarima’ by Bijay Shrestha, and ‘Jheerma Uninu’ and ‘Ma Ta Pahirobhitra Chhu’ in Rajendra Thapa’s words during the latter part of the program.

‘Sailibari Chiya Barima…’

One of his own favorites ‘Pahadko Ukalilai…’ written by poet Ishwor Ballabh

Audience was mesmerized with Deep’s intact voice.
Answering to the audience’s shouting-once more, he was saying “there are lots of ‘once more’ ahead”

Poet Piplob Prateek

‘Kati Kamjor Rahechha Bhagya…’ written by Yuvan Tuladhar, ‘Bhanthi Meri Uni…’ and ‘Timi Aakashko Joon…’ in Shiva Shankar Thapa’s words and ‘Samjhi Basen Timilai…’ written by Yogendra Malla.


‘Eutai Baato Sandhain Bhetghat…’ by Raman Ghimire

Deep’s one of the intimates and lyricist/columnist Basanta Thapa welcoming the audience after a short interval

Deep also danced while singing ‘Mero Ankhama Bhardin…’



‘Sunideu Saano Chhandako Katha’… by the singer himself



At the end, he also premiered a new song ‘Kahile Aakash Pani…’ written by Basanta Thapa.

Deep was accompanied by a group of musicians comprising Manik Man Singh on bass guitar, Bikram on rhythm guitar, Jyoti Ghimire on lead guitar, Balram Samal on flute, Manaraja Nakarmi on tabala, Rupesh Singh on octopad and Dinesh Regmi on keyboard.

This beautiful fan of Deep was dancing in many songs

The 2-hours program (organized to raise fund for Gallery 9) was perfectly ended with his evergreen number ‘Biteka Kurale…’ written and composed by Deep himself, amid back vocals from the entire audience enthusiastically.

Dear Falano thank you from our heart.
Deep Shrestha is a star of many Nepali hearts, his name represents a synonium for true love or true tragedy in love. His music, songs and voice are true networks for three dimentional love and patrotric feeling.
Ma patherko Dewata haina….
Katikamjor Rahechha bhagya…
………
Deep Shrestha always be lighting and shining a strong DEEP in Nepali sky.
Long live Deep Shrestha.

Deep shrestha is a name for milestosne in Nepali music. His vocal and music can provide a better rythem for the nation. All the need is to explore his capacity to the maximum, so that neplai music can be heightened to it’s top.

I really missed this greatest event of Deep Shreshta. I have been his fan from nearly three decades, when his popular numbers – Biteka Kurale, Kati Kamjor Rahechha…etc. were played in Denzong and Star Cinema Halls in Gangtok, Norgay Cinema Hall in Phuntsholing, Bhutan and almost all cinema halls of Darjeeling and Kalimpong. Today, tears rolled down my eyes seeing him in pictures, singing those evergreen songs that bring alive our past, our love, romance and youthful days when we lived and educated in India and Nepal.
On this happy occasion of Nepali New Year 2064, I extend my hearty felicitations to the organisers of that event in Gurukul, the singer himself, the composers and musicians of his songs and the audience who were mesmerised with Deep’s historic vocals.
I cannot express in words how much his songs moved me, but certainly I would like to see him in London doing the same concert if anyone organises. He has to sing the same songs which have become a part of our life and daily singing norm.
Congratulations to all, Phalano.com and everyone involved in bringing Deep Shrestha back to the stage. He is the next Swor Samrat after late Sri Narayan Gopal.
Happy New Year to all of you!

Rajesh,
Wonderful pics. I was there that night and saw you taking the pics and missed the old days when we all went around with cameras, pens and notebooks recording events. Anyway, couldn’t help but marvel at Deep Shrestha’s wonderful voice and even more wonderful lyrics. The highlight for me was of course my all-time favourite – Mero aankha ma hardam badal chhai rahayo, binti chha kasaile anndhi lyaideu.
I was just thinking, isn’t it possible, with all the technical gizmos around these days, to remaster Deep’s old songs in new formats. Better still, since he is still around, why not request him to record all his old songs in new technology, so we can really savour it the way it should be savoured. The original recordings, though great just for its nostalgic value, leaves much to be desired in terms of sound quality.
Cheers
Suman

Indeed, I would not deny how big fan I am of our Nepalese jewel, Mr. Deep Shrestha. I wish I did not have to leave on the same very day when he was performing and would have been blessed to be a part of that dynamic event. But day will not end here, someday and somewhere, I still will charm with his live voice. But for the moment, will anyone kindly advise me if there is any possibility to listen it virtually on CD? Is the concert has been recorded and published on CD? Finally, accept my gratitude Mr. K.C for wonderful work.

I will go with Murari of Seattle. This website should put some videos of this event so that we(abroad ppl) can download it and get along in the depth of sentiments with deep shrs. I don’t know his other songs but i’am driven crazy by his one best song called ‘mero akhama’ and that’s what makes him even greater than shakespere, devkota, beethoven or mozart. i wish all the best to him.

Rajesh ji,
My view about this concert is a bit differnt. This lavish concert organised and ‘enjoyed’ by Kathmandu’s so-called literati is beyond the reach of ordinary Nepalis like me. I do like Deep Shrestha, but not as much as in my early 20s. I loathe such ‘exotic’ concerns. With respect to our threatre personalities, I just say that Gurukul reminds me of the private theatres of our old tyrants, the Ranas.

Many thanks to Rajeshji for capturing the moments with Deep Shrestha. Darjeeling and whole of India (Nepali community) salutes him for coming back on the stage with evergreen songs.
He has come back after many years, I don’t know why he eluded us for a long time. Darjeeling is a city of musicians, literateurs, poets and singers. Yet we are devoted to Deep Shrestha and wish him a long life….a happy life….a singing life….singing those songs again… Deep Daju, come to Darjeeling, we are waiting to see you singing live in front of us.

Whether you are a guitarist or a keyboard player, humming no other songs would give you more pleasure than Deep Shrestha’s songs.
He is a versatile singer and composer.

I am an eight years old kid. My father is a big fan of Deep Shrestha. And so am I. I wonder what kind of guitar he plays. I want to be a great musician too.

Happy New and thanks a million Rajeshji for bringing out such a great highlights of Deep Dai who is one of my best preferred singers of all seasons. Obviousuly, I have been always listening his songs with same interest and enthusiast for long long times. To me his voice is always evergreen and intact may be that’s a God gift to him. And to be honest with you his voice has a great solace and kind of theraputicness which gives anyone a mental peace and happiness. Besides this he is picky too while singing songs means he has a band upliftmentdevelopof good poets and writers behind him who has contributed him thier great words full of natural stuffs, love and socital causes like one of the brillient example of his best song Har Rat… this is so pragmatic and best suited to the present context of our country because while listining it noone can ignore the realities and the impact of this song mainly reflecting our bigger & deprived society left in the remote parts (dark zones) of our country. Which urge and ignite our every nerves as well as our thoughts to give hands for the betterment of such societies in this country. On the other hand why this song is so touchy because Deep Dai has sung this song through his heart with a great passion and garnished every words of this song with his all great rythemic manner and musical discipline. So today’s modern young singers have to be inspired and learn from such great performances as well as the objectives of his singning career of his long time. Aparently, through his great voice and dedication toward his musical journeies he’s been serving Nepal our beloved land for long long time. Hence we must always give a due respect and honor to such talents been involved in any aspect of arts and literatures in fact they are like our living Heros of this country. However preciously what I want to mention that Deep Dai’s most of the songs are always weighty and leave us a great impact in our heart and souls. That’s the of his beauty his great evergreen voice.
Once again I give you my heartfelt gratitude and thanks Rajeshji.

Rajesh ji,
Thank you once again. You did a wonderful job by putting the photographs of Deep Shrestha the legendary singer in this website. Though I was in Kathmandu itself during the programme, I could not make it due to my official engagements. Your photographs of the event have made me as if I was there in the programme. I can imagine how Deep Dai sang there, because, he is perfect in his singing due to regular practice. I had a chance to be with Deep Shrestha few years back in Dharan and then to Ilam. He has a great voice, he is a highly knowledgeable singer and music composer, and he has a special skill to select the lyrics and lyricists. And yet he is quite simple. He is never old and feels that he is still young. This is because, the depth in which he has drowned himself in the ocean of music, he never becomes old, nor his voice. My warmest wishes to Deep Dai and best regards to Raju ji.

I think singer like deep sherstha should not sing in the programs like that which was very badly organised. Especially the sound system.
He is Poineer in Nepali music.

I know, it is a bit late, but I could not keep without passing my thoughts on it, when I happened to see this gallery just today. Music itself, for many, is such a thing, which can change the whole environment around, and when such music is mixed with an appropriate voice of the singer, it just goes deep inside the heart, making the individual uncontrollable, on many occasions. Deep Shrestha’s song is acting like that itself since I was young, and many of those are still act as a driving force, for me to think me ahead in my life. I am so glad to see this gallery, and so, would like to thank Rajesh ji and also those who are involved in creating this fascinating gallery!
