Prakash was grown up with his grandmother. After Koshi shed everything, Grandmother brought Dharan to Prakash. There, his grandmother worked as a housemaid. Prakash and his grandmother also attended the wedding of a relative of that house. The song was loud. Prakash thought someone is talking. He followed the sound. The tune pulled. I was very happy. I could copy more words and sounds while listening and sang them in front of others. Because of this singing art, he got the chance to be admitted to the school.[2]
