Following the performance, senior sitar player Dr. Dhruvesh Chandra Regmi honored the artists on behalf of the Pratisthan, praising their dedication to preserving and promoting classical music.

Raag Bhimpalasi belongs to the Kafi Thaat, characterized by its intricate movements. With its Audava-Sampurna structure and the use of soft Gandhar and Nishad notes, it evokes a deep sense of longing and devotion. The raag's primary notes, Madhyam (M) and Shadaj (S), are key to creating its distinct mood.

The Achyutram Bhandari Sangeet Pratisthan, dedicated to preserving classical music, has been organizing monthly performances for the past 27 months, featuring prominent artists and musicians to keep the rich tradition of classical music alive in Nepal. Every 15th of the Nepali month, their hall in Gaurighat comes alive with soulful renditions of classical ragas, tabla solos, and instrumental performances, enriching Kathmandu's cultural heritage.

This ongoing dedication serves as an inspiration for the younger generation to connect with their cultural roots through the timeless art of classical music. The institution remains a beacon for those passionate about keeping the classical music tradition vibrant.
