Maya by Ashutosh KC is one of those songs. It is a song that came from nowhere and won the hearts of many. Ashutosh KC was not known to the Nepali audience before he released his hit single. But now, there is hardly anyone that does not know him and his song.

Previously, he had released a song called Counting Stars (Tara Ganera), which, unfortunately, could not gain much popularity.

Maya

After Counting Stars, Ashutosh released his second song Maya, and it blew up the internet.

Maya was released on 22nd April 2021 from Ashutosh’s official YouTube channel. The song is written, composed, and performed by himself, and produced by Foeseal.

It is a simple song with no fancy instruments and tracks. Furthermore, Ashutosh’s unique vocal tone is very soothing to listen to for the audience.

Maya is a song about love (well, obviously). The most popular and heart-warming part of the song is its chorus:

Eklai basera muskuraunu ho maya
Timlai herera ramaunu ho maya
Baralinne maan ta ho…

Yaada le jeewan
Sajhaunu ho maya

In his YouTube comments, Ashutosh has explained the meaning behind the words, “Yaada le jeewan sajhaunu ho maya.” He says,

Yaada le jiwan sajaunu ho maya(actual meaning) – Sangai pal haru bitaayera, yaad haru banayera jiwan sajaune ho?
Would you wanna spend the rest of your life, living moments and making memories with me?
Its a proposal statement but you can relate it in your own way, thats how i wrote it, just wanted to let you guys know😊.

The Popularity of Maya by Ashutosh KC

Besides the 9 million+ views (so far) in his YouTube video of Maya, you can see how popular the song is by going through the video’s comments.

People have expressed their love for the song saying that it resonates with their lives—remembering their loved ones, heartbreaks, and just appreciating the beauty of love and life.

Below is a snapshot from his YouTube comments of the song.

These are just a few among the thousands of wonderful comments the song has received. It shows how much the song has impacted people’s lives.

Quite often, artists create dozens of songs, and only a few make it big. We have seen it happen with many artists. But in Ashutosh’s case, maybe it’s luck, talent, timing, or just the beauty of the song. He was able to make it big with this one song. And the most amazing part is that this is only his second song.

Ashutosh’s talent is definitely worth all the love and appreciation he has received. The fans are eagerly waiting to hear some new stuff from him. But, Maya will forever remain in our hearts. It is a song worth listening to over and over.

Many Nepali artists have a hard time making a record and selling them to their audience. Because of the lack of proper record labels, distributors, and online platforms in Nepal, artists struggle to create and distribute their work to the fans.

Even though platforms like YouTube and Spotify allow artists to put their music out, they are unable to make the money they deserve from such platforms. They put their heart and soul into creating the best music possible. So, the artists should be able to make a living doing what they do.

A musician is also a profession, just like a banker, engineer, or doctor. However, in Nepal, artists are not given the value and respect they deserve. Therefore, the introduction of Noodle is a huge step in the Nepali music industry as it gives the value that the artists deserve.

What is Noodle?

Noodle by Noodle Rex is a platform for Nepali audiences to support their favorite musicians by purchasing their songs, albums, and merchandise. It is a digital platform, which means everything is online.

According to its website,

Noodle advocates for protection, recognition and appreciation of the artist. By continually creating awareness around piracy and music rights, Noodle enhances the artist agency, supporting the artist to unapologetically own and create more music.

Goals:

• To disrupt this passive culture that contributes to artists leaving the scene.
• To shake up the status quo.
• And to bring together the artist and the audience, ensure the best audio quality for listeners, call attention to artist protection, and redefine the listening culture in Nepal.

How Does It Work?

Noodle has a transparent per download artist payment plan. First, you must sign up and create an account on the platform. Then, search for your favorite artists. After that, you can purchase their singles, albums, and merch directly from the platform.

It also has the feature of crowdfunding. So, artists can raise funds for their new projects, records, and other events. It is a good initiative in the Nepali music scene that can transform how artists create content for their audiences.

Furthermore, you can check out the artist’s biography and news and write reviews on their content too. Noodle supports payment options like eSewa, fonepay, Khalti, Visa/MasterCard, and PayPal. So the people living outside Nepal can also support their favorite artists through this platform.

International platforms like Spotify and Apple Music have been around for a long time. But the Nepali musicians still struggled to get their music out on these platforms. Moreover, both artists and audiences have difficulty complying with these platforms because of various reasons like payment gateways, app restrictions, and so on.

Now, Noodle is here to solve these problems. So sign up and start supporting your favorite artists directly.
