the Nepal is set to rock with six 'Indian Idol' contestants.
On Friday, Ankita, Chang, Charu, Deepali, Parleen and 17-year-old wonder boy Emon, who made it to the top three before exiting the show last week, will arrive in Kathmandu for two power-packed shows that are expected to be runaway successes.
The contestants remain hugely popular in both India and Nepal despite being voted out of Sony Television channel's gripping talent hunt show.
Sponsored by Mero Mobile, Nepal's first private company to offer cell phone services, the six, who captured the fancy and hearts of viewers in India, Nepal, Dubai, Singapore and even London, will hold a three-hour show at a football ground in temple city Patan Saturday, followed by a more exclusive soiree at the posh Soaltee Crowne Plaza hotel Sunday.
Keeping in mind the immense popularity of the show in Nepal, Kathmandu's event management company DMI, which has pulled off the entertainment coup, has decided to cater to both the upmarket clientele as well as the masses.
For the football ground show, the tickets are priced at Nepali Rs.399 while the Soaltee concert, complete with dinner, will cost Rs.3,500 per head.
The 'Icons and Idols' show will also feature two pop stars from Nepal, Nima Rumba and Anil Singh.
The venues are as follows:
Pulchowk Engineering College Football Grounds, 15 Sept. 1 PM onwards) Ticket price: Rs. 399
Soaltee Crowne Plaza, 16 Sept 7 PM onwards).Ticket price: Rs.3500
That's really exciting news.
