    KATHMANDU, May 20: Currently program manager for social development at Sparrow SMS, a value-added SMS service (VAS) provider in Nepal, Barsha Paudel, 25, has her career path planned out.

And all along the way, she wants to keep herself engaged with her other projects that are inspired more by her hobbies – like she is doing at the moment – such as traveling often, digitizing the cultural heritage of Nepal in an attempt to preserve it, and reading voraciously.

Paudel graduated from Pulchowk Engineering Campus with a Bachelor’s in Electronics and Communications Engineering and later switched to studying Economics her Master’s at the Barcelona Graduate School of Economics. “Economics had always been my subject of interest,” she explains her switch.

Whether it is in the effervescent musical Khamoshi or the intensely pensive role of the femme fatale in Dil Se, she has spun an intoxicating spell of mystique and a lure of evanescent beauty fleeting through an emblazoned landscape, rich with meaning.
