KATHMANDU: Dibesh Pokharel, more famously known as Arthur Gunn to the world, moved past the top 10 of American Idol – popular American musical reality show – and firmly claimed his spot in Top 7, on Sunday.

For his 'Disney Night' on the show, the 21-year-old finalist who made the cut sang his own version of the song Kiss the Girl from The Little Mermaid.

His style and twist of the Little Mermaid classic were well-liked by the judges Katy Perry, Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie.

Lionel Richie exclaimed that he was proud of Gunn's performance so far and said that every song Arthur Gunn performs has his personnel style and his identity which is one of the most important things to sell right now.
