ANUP PRAKASH

After Miss Nepal 2003 Priti Sitaula left for the US, it was Miss Nepal 2004 Payal Shakya's turn. Payal left for Sydney, Australia, on 9 February with her fiancé Sarun Tamrakar, lead vocalist of The Uglyz, for further studies. Sarun is a Permanent Resident of Australia. A day before she left, Payal told us, "Fame isn't everything, education is more important." She will study at Holmes Institute of Accounting before starting on a four-year Bachelor's degree. She was studying BBA at Campion College before she left. She says, "I will return to Nepal after my studies. It's just that I want to learn and be capable enough to contribute more to my country."
