This episode is all about online dating in the times of the rapidly increasing number of bideshiney mayalu haru. So how have dating apps made it easy or difficult to look for companionship for young Nepalis, and shifted attitudes towards dating? And how often does bidesh ko visa and bidesh ko degree come in the way of budding romance? Last year, over 1 lakh individuals received NOC (No Objection Certificate) to study abroad. त्यसले गर्दा यहाँ कतिजना प्रेमि प्रेमिकाहरुको बिछोड भयो होला? Sadness only hyapenn! So this episode is for all the विदेशिने/विदेशिएका मायालुहरु र उनीहरुका अधुरो love storiyaaaa. In our episode #61 ‘Love, Sex no Dhoka’, we talked about dating and courtship before the ear of internet.

It’s all about Nepali uncle हरुको कान्ड this month, from बजेट चलखेल behind चुकुल लाको doors to सुनको लौरो “flying” to Jhapa bypassing the customs office at TIA.
