Bhishma Ji is a man with dynamic personality. I know him from my very childhood as I was born and brought up in Bandipur. He was interested in art and literature from his school life and so he used to write and play drama himself. To-day I am very much glad to hear the news about the release of his epic 'Bandipur'. I assume his epic will give a great contribution to Nepali literature and establish ethnic identity in the country. I cogratulate him and wish him best of luck. Resmam Lal Shrestha.
