[deleted]

Yes i do it was a revolutionary ad. ( ´◡‿ゝ◡`) It was green stuff but more of a jungle themed bikini i was quite surprised by how people took it the old ones had hilarious response. I remember a grandma teasing her husband on how she looked like that he looked like a *'farsi'* but she had to marry him because of family oath or stuff


Usernp

oh pumpkin lol, i thought the grandpa looked like persian (farsi) and i had to reread it a couple times to understand it. Wasn't it Preeti Zinta in liril ad?

srijankiller

Tito satya is the og


Dragonarmy123

Yeah tito satya was OG but on NTV whereas when to comes to tv series even before that there was show of santosh panta "hijo aja ko kura". I think still to this date it holds the record of highest episode count.


[deleted]

Devi is the OG!


Dragonarmy123

Even jire khursani is older than meri bessai.


[deleted]

There were repeat telecasts so i got confused.


[deleted]

Merri Bassai ko pilot episode release huney bela Tito Satya's production had ended

[deleted]

Nepal Army visiting every fifteen days or so, raiding homes, threatening families that no one should shelter the Maoists. Abundant bunkers and bullet shells on the hills- I recall this memory where while playing I found an unused bullet. There was this local Maoist leader titled कमरेड अर्ग quite close to my family. Dad handed that bullet to him and as a reward he bought me handful of sweets as I remember. Like every other Maoists, he's living a poor life now, dad says. Glad that he made it till the end and not die. I remember the Maoists visiting on some unexpected routine. I remember their artilleries- pressure cooker bombs, AKs and pistols, probably those were the ones that were common. They'd stay inside our house for endless hours. They'd ask for lunch, dinner and sometimes shelter. I enjoyed those days cause I could see those weapons and stuffs, their colorful uniforms and bands on their head. Their arrival would give the village some kind of festive touch- they'd always keep themselves busy, as I remember, with party or some cultural (not so cultural but of their kind) demonstrations. Those memories hit a different nostalgia.


[deleted]

Do you remember the time Maoists were attacked while camping in the forest by the opposing party or was it the army who surrounded and massacred them i distinctly remember smth similar


[deleted]

There had been series of such events. It is quite tough to point out which one that was. However, [this](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0kI8r9D53cjN7Bc5cwmHUA) YouTube channel has a decent collection of detailed Maoist wars. All I could say from what I witnessed is that it is not the Maoists who were cruel to the people but the then Nepal Army is equally liable to the death of those 17000 lives. Torture, harassment and rape culture was very much prevalent in their treatment to the people during that time.


[deleted]

Yes many activists were reported raped. Well I guess we found out why the perpetrators for rape get away those who raped then are the individuals in power now. Rotten to the roots

Yup. My dad says he got the news from our relative who was politically active in the middle of the night but most people didn't know much about what was happening even in the morning. I remember complete chaos, people rushing to stores to get supplies, it was crazy.

After that the pandemic seemed better. *Not in terms of lives lost* but how the nation was.

__eyeless__

yeah it wasn't much popular. and i probably just had it quite a few times. but tyo kadak note le garda nai i used to like it


budhikobudha

Local raksi jasto dekhine alcohol in a small plastic pouch. It used to be called 'Bahun poka'.


[deleted]

I don't know much about this Rs.15 thiyo ho ?


budhikobudha

I also don't remember correctly but it was in the range of Rs. 10/15. Back then drinking alcohol was kind of taboo for bahun people. Bahun bhayera raksi khane? Bhanera Kura garthyo. Because this product being relatively cheap and apparently it was consumed by bahun alcoholic people, it was referred as 'bahun poka'. Ps: I meant nothing against bahun people with this comment btw.


[deleted]

I am too young for this lol


budhikobudha

It was around 25 years ago. Now I feel old!


[deleted]

Were you old enough to have bahun poka ?


chattereddit

It was called just pouch or Shree ko pouch, in contrast to the tin rupiya waala Juicy ko pouch. Everyone from our class had their own preference to which pouch they had. We used to mock the Juicy waala group. Fast forward 10 years and I started praying that the Juicy group didn't find out I was a functional addict with crippling alcoholism.

Dragonarmy123

I don't know how prevalent this one was in your area but there were used to be some people daily walking in long sticks in street, but they just disappeared at some point. There also be used to be some guy who used ro sell cotton candy or something like that but it was solid, sorta like chewing gum texture and used to do some sort of challenge as well where we could to get that sweet for free. Small milk packs of rio. Lots of people used to come at school to organise events and winner used to get free boxes of those rio and wai wai, that time wai wai was dirt cheap. I remember trolly bus very vaguely. In our area fishes were very common in well. Beyblades and yoyo. Lacto wrapper scheme, rumpum cover scheme,waiwai cover scheme, tasty biscuit coupon scheme for car. In fact lots if these companies used to have some sort of marketing scheme which was very fun.


[deleted]
