  • This is what a boy's life looked like at the feet of the Himalayas. His full name is Bikash Nepal from Tupche village in Nuwakot district of Nepal. His town must be next to Trishuli river somewhere nearby Betrawoti. Filmed 43 years ago, a viewer informs me.

    Thank you so much for uploading such a precious video. I assume that Bikash should be my contemporary. I have also gone through the same circumstances that Bikash did. Fortunately my parents sent me school so that I could read and write. The video depicts the simple but tough life in Nepal basically in rural communities. This video vividly reconnected me with my childhood life but now I live in America. That simple and tough life has transformed into complex and tough. Sometimes I am battered by the problem of language . Sometimes I am beaten due to lack of connection to get an opportunity. Hardship of life has doubled but in different form. But I am happy to be here with a gleaming hope that my little one will definitely have a bright future.

    The boy's full name is Bikash Nepal from Tupche village in Nuwakot district of Nepal. His town must be next to Trishuli river somewhere nearby Betrawoti. Filmed 43 years ago if anyone nearby can trace him and show this video would be great. Thanks to the original creator of this video for documenting so well and capturing that moment in history which is going to be extremely beneficial for future generations.

      @@michaelijsbrand His last name should be Nepali, not Nepal because, In the video at 1:44, he was beating a special traditional musical instrument "Jhyali" . The performers of these instruments belong to a special caste known as the "Damai," a group historically associated with playing such instruments in Nepal. Interestingly, the video showcases Tupche, the exact place where I was born and raised. During my childhood, I used to visit the same corn-grinding mill seen in the video. While Bikash's face doesn't seem familiar, it's likely because I was born nearly 12 years after the video's recording. Nevertheless, I possess a deep familiarity with all the locations depicted in the video and might be able to identify and locate this individual. I used to play the same game "Dandi beyo" as shown in the clip at 10:45. It made me nostalgic. I recognized a couple folks in this video especially a black-shirted guy with a red mark (Tika) on his forehead at video 12:06. The dried hill visible in the background is now completely covered by a dense forest due to a significant decrease in population over the past couple of decades, primarily caused by mass migration to cities and overseas as well as the widespread availability of natural gas for cooking.
