Nepa-Laya, promoting art and creation

Nepa-Laya, a powerful house of event management, book publication, music production and film making was established in 2001 with an objective of providing a platform for every Nepali creative artist.



Dedicated and focused on providing a platform, Nepa-Laya attempts to bring back the artist from yesteryears who, in present are absent from the musical world. It has built a reputation for originality and innovative thinking and whatever they do, they never focus on obstacles. They rather seem to focus on possibilities than the obstacles. Not only to Nepali creative artist but it also provides a platform for Nepali authors by publication of their books. They have published books by Narayan Wagle’s Palpasa Café and Mayur Times, Kunda Dixit’s A People War Triology, and Sanjeeb Upreti’s Ghanchakkar, along with Praksash Subedi’s Chori Juwai Bhetna America. Nep-Laya recently got approval for authorized translation and is working to launch books on Nepali interest. It is also planning to launch a biography of Ani Choying Dolma written by the French author Matthieu Ricard.
