Syndicate lyrics in Nepali
भेट भयो आज हामी सिन्डिकेट्को माझ हामी
उभिएछु तिम्रो बगल मा, बिजि तिमी मोबाइल मा हेरेछु
खेलेको योवन,

नाम तिम्रो थाहा छैन तर मलाई पर्वाहा छैन
बोली केही रहेछौ है, आँखाले केही भनिरहेछौ है
बोलु त के भनेर
डर पनि लाग्छ सोचेर

तिमी जाने सिलिगुरि, म जाने सिक्किम तिर

खुसी छु है तिम्रै माझ भुले सारा संसार आज
तिमी पनि म संग नै जान भए कति रमाइलो
हुने थियो भन्नत

कस्तो यो मिलन हाम्रो, बीस मिनेट को सम्बन्ध हाम्रो
पाएर पनि नपाए जस्तो, चिनेर पनि न चिने जस्तो
जिन्दगी यस्तै नै हो र
आफ्नै बाटो त जानू छदै छर

तिमी जाने सिलिगुरि, म जाने सिक्किम तिर

मलाई नै हेरेको झै लाग्छ घरी घरि
(हेरे लाग्छ घरिघरि)
फर्की हेर्छु म पनि आशा सरि
(हुउ... आशा सरि)
मनमा सोच्दै म रमाउद छु
(मनमा सोच्दै म रमाउद छु)
तिमी संगै भएको कल्पना गर्छु
(कल्पना गर्छुउ...)

कस्तो धर्के पानी पर्यो, भिजेर म चुर भए
तिमी संगै ओत लागि आफ्नो गाडी पर्खिरहे
भिजेछु आज म रहर ले

सबै गाडी चद्न थाल्यो कमाण्डर को हर्न सुनी
कलिम्पोङ टु सिलिगुरि, भन तिमी कस्तो निस्ठुरी
चडेर गयो कता तिर
छाडी राख्यौ मलाई यतै तिर
तिमी जाने सिलिगुरि, म जाने सिक्किम तिर
तिमी जाने सिलिगुरि, म जाने सिक्किम तिर
तिमी जाने सिलिगुरि, म जाने सिक्किम तिर

Bollywood Song Stole Bipul Chettri’s Music But It’s Still Shit!

2:27 PM

•

Video

Writers Neeraj Pun (NEO)

Bollywood has been ‘getting inspired’, screw it, we will just say what it is — Bollywood has been stealing since ages. Anything that’s good needs to be copied, whether a film, a scene or a song because creativity is just a myth for these guys. The latest victim of this trend is Bipul Chettri whose music has been ripped off in a song from an upcoming film ‘Hai Apna Dil Toh Awara’. The music for the song titled ‘Chhu Liya’ is composed, or let’s just say stolen, by Ajay Singha and it is sung by Papon and Neha Rajpal. It wouldn’t actually be a bad song if the music was not stolen but as we are so used to of listening to Bipul’s soothing voice along with that music, it sounds terrible.

Here's the song
Title : Chhu Liya
Singer : Papon & Neha Rajpal
Lyrics : Mohit Pathak
Music : Ajay Singha
Arranger/Programmer : Ajay Singha/ Nilotpal Bora

The people from "Hai Apna Dil Tou Awara" have removed the following video where music was straight away taken from the song Aasar of Bipul Chetteri because of too many dislikes and hate comments.


No Bollywood, it doesn’t work that way. You just don’t steal our favorite artist’s music and get away with it without anyone noticing. Busted!!

However, we had the copy of the version of song Chhu Liya where music was taken from the song Aasar of Bipul Chetteri and you can watch the video here



And here’s the original by Bipul Chettri - Asaar

Writes Vivek Chhetri

Darjeeling, June 7: Amber Gurung, the composer of the Nepal's national anthem, breathed his last in Kathmandu today. He was 78.

Singer Gagan Gurung, a close friend of Amber, said: "I received a call from Kathmandu early this morning about the sad demise of my friend and guru Amber. ... Amber Gurung has been immortalised through his deed." Gurung said Amber was born in Kalimpong and raised here. "Every great singer from Darjeeling was his disciple," he said.

Amber's fame spread after he composed and sang Nepali poet Agam Singh Giri's " Nau lakh tara" (nine lakh stars).

In 1962, he was appointed a director in the state information and cultural department's folk artist section. He left for Nepal in 1969 on the invitation of King Mahendra.

Amber Gurung

When monarchy was abolished and a new government was formed in Nepal, Amber composed the country's national anthem, " Sayaun thunga phoolka hami" (of a hundred flowers).

Tomorrow, the GTA will hold a memorial service at the Gorkha Rangamanch Bhavan here at 11.30am.

Bipul Chhettri at Café Live and Loud in Gangtok

10:16 AM

•

song

Gangtok: Bipul Chhettri , the singer who shot to fame with his famous songs ‘Asaar’ and ‘Dadhelo’ performed this evening here at the Café Live and Loud.

Bipul Chhettri in Gangtok

Chhettri is a singer and songwriter from Kalimpong who currently heads the Art Department at Vasant Valley School, New Delhi.

He recently launched his debut album ‘Sketches of Darjeeling’ and to promote the album, he is officially on his ‘lai bari lai’ tour. Sikkim is second on his itinerary and before coming here Chhetri performed in Kathmandu and soon plans to do so in Delhi and Kolkata as well.

Interacting with media persons before his show, the singer said his connection with music is since his childhood. His father NM Chhettri is a musician and CM Ghishing, Chhetri’s music teacher, supported and helped him throughout.

“I am very deeply rooted with my culture and therefore, I chose folk music as the genre for my first album. However, I am looking forward to explore other genres as well,” said Chhetri.

The response to his new album was overwhelming all across the world and Chhetri is very thankful to everyone for loving his songs. He also said Nepali music has a good future as Nepali culture has a lot of potential in terms of expressions.

“Music is not the source of income for me, rather it is my passion. My aim is not to become famous. I sing because I love to and I feel music is the journey of my life and it’s this that inspires me to sing,” explained Chhetri.

If he gets a chance, Chhetri would love to work with AR Rahman besides local artistes such as Albert Gurung, Girish and the Chronicles and Still Waters.

“Don’t keep yourself limited; come outside and explore your talents,” is his advice to all up-coming talents.

The story behind Chhetri’s debut album is pretty interesting. During the first months of last year, a song titled ‘Dadhelo’ (wildfire) had gone viral on the internet. The awesome response gave birth to his ‘Sketches of Darjeeling’. The album comprises six songs inspired by life around the hills of Darjeeling. It has a blend of Nepali folk music and contemporary Western elements.
