When a young Raju Lama came to Kathmandu sitting on top of his father’s shoulders, he never thought he would become one of the most popular pop stars in the country. But, through hard work, determination and persistence, not only did he become that, he became a singing icon whose songs still reverberate around Nepal as his legacy still stands strong all these years later.
Wherever he goes, he is adored. In the late 90s and early 2000s, every nook and corner of Kathmandu would be playing his songs. His fans would throng the concerts where he and his band, The Mongolian Heart, played. At a time where bands like 1974 AD, Nepathya, Kandara and The Axe were doing their thing, Lama and the Mongolian Heart had a special place in the hearts of the people of Nepal. By the love they get, one might argue that they still do.
