With his strict professional nature and the habit of straight forward questioning, he soon attracted extreme attention from the viewers who would eagerly wait for him to provoke critical issues, especially while interviewing politicians, in his talk-shows.
During the period of monarchy, before 2006 revolutions, his show in the government-controlled Nepal Television started getting heavily censored due to his straight questions to the politicians in his interviews.
He is known to have made efforts to bring infrastructural development in education and other fields in villages and rural areas of the country.
Currently his wife (Sushma Dwivedi) is actively working as a lawyer and mediator whilst also being a single mother to her children.
He was brought dead at Norvic International Hospital in Kathmandu at 8:10 p.m.[4] His funeral was attended by thousands of people at the Pashupati Temple Cremation Area.
