His song Bistari Bistrai became so hit in youtube that he became an overnight star. This song gave him the success he deserves. Not many singers are fortunate enough that their first song goes viral but in his case his first song made him famous.

Many people did a cover of this song.
Now he works with the biggest band of Nepal 1974 AD. He replaced the iconic Adrian Pradhan in this band. Joining this band is in itself a big challenge and to become the lead vocalist is no joke.
