Honoring the contributions of the Centurian -- Rastrakavi Madhav Prasadh Ghimire -- in Nepali literature, Nepathya released the video of their 2010 song ‘Aina Jhyal’ on Wednesday. The song penned by Rastrakavi Ghimire expresses the plight of a butterfly that is confined to a windowpane and barred to experience the brighter world. As per the poet, the composition of the song marks the beginning of Panchayat period.
A press release issued by Nepalaya quoted Ghimire saying: “This song was written in the context when King Mahendra introduced democracy but it failed to come into action curtailing the freedom of people. At that time, I had to confirm that the song did not carry any political stance and term it as a 10-year-old composition carried out with lucrative motive.”
