Introducing our series “Rewind with Boju Bajai” where we talk about all things nostalgia. And in this episode, we take a walk down memory lane with singer Sukmit Gurung, Nepal’s OG pop music icon. Sukmit Gurung talks about her childhood in Sikkim, getting a break as a teenager to sing alongside Om Bikram Bista, shifting trends in Nepali music and four decades of singing and performing for Nepali audiences around the world. गायिका सुक्मित गुरुङले सन् १९८१ मा ‘ओ मेरो प्रियतम’ गाउँदासम्म पनि पप संगीत के हो ? धेरैलाई थाहै थिएन । सुक्तिमअघि न पप गायनमा कोही सक्रिय गायिका थिए, न कोही यही विधालाई आफ्नो करिअर बनाउन चाहन्थे । त्यतिखेरसम्म केही गायक र पुरुषले नेतृत्त्व गरेका ब्यान्डहरु यो विधातर्फ लम्कँदै थिए । रेडियो नेपालमा दावा ग्ल्याम्होहरुलाई सुन्दै हुर्केकी सुक्मितको समकालीन कुन्ती मोक्तान, मीरा राणा, लोचन भट्टराईहरु आधुनिक गीततिर बढी ढल्किए । तर सुक्मितलाई पश्चिमा संगीतको गायन शैली र संगीतले तान्यो, अनि उनले जानी/नजानी पप संगीततिर कदम चालिन् । Also, please watch more episode of our series on nostalgia. - Where did Wave magazine go? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOg75WdVLqk&t=1s- Raja Aau, for real? 🙃 The not-so-Royal Nepal of the 90s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glhIs1vs5OIFollow Boju Baja wherever you are:Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/bojubajaiInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/bojubajai/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bojubajaiTikTok: @bojubajaiTwitter: https://x.com/bojubajaiSupport us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/bojubajai-------Credits:Camera: Bikram Rai, Elite JoshiResearch: Reena MoktanVideo music: Good Days by Yung Logos / @yunglogos Video of Sukmit Gurung singing Pal Pal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2B42xKKSKvkVideo of Sukmit Gurung at Golden Kite Festival https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bV5AGPSid68Video of Sukmit Gurung singing “Timilai Hasera” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqlMUzXE2Go
