• Kiran Chetry, news anchor, CNN
• Samrat Upadhyay, Author
• Prabal Gurung, Fashion Designer
• Daya Vaidya, Actress
• Darshan Rauniyar, Politician
• Sweata Lamichhane, Actress
• Anyone Else? 

Every Nepalese in US are successful indeed in their perspective. Everyone is living in good house, eating good food and wearing good clothes. In fact living somehow better living standard than they had in Nepal. But except their family member and friends no one knows and cares about them. There are some people like Nepalese film actors and singers who are very popular just among the Nepalese community.

But there are only few people who have gained a great achievement in this foreign land, whom even the people of other demography know and appreciate. I am asking about those people.

 

@it_guy: he is the first nepali to to announce the candidacy for  US Congress.Accordingly he is the first Nepali to be 7th in the voting.wait up people.there were 7 people in the election.
Lesson learnt: A donkey cannot pose like a monkey,coz donkey cannot climb trees.Know your limits and talent and do what your good at.Otherwise just imagine a donkey trying to climb a tree.it might fall down on its back..same happened with Darshan Rauniyar..Have you ever seen him giving a speech.

Like Darshan, there are many more Nepali millionaire across the world, we simply do not hear about them. I was always hesitant about his political carrier cause he had nothing to offer than the average joe. Remember, anybody can run for office in America, it's not a big deal. A porn star ran for the governer of california and she did pretty good. A little bit of money and some connections will take you a long way, but don't expect people to take you seriously. I didn't see anything unique in Darshan's platform even though he ran for office in a very liberal state, being brown with that much of an accent, the bar was already set low. But again, that is just my opinion. However I do admire his success and his effort, wish him a good luck.

Successful in terms of popularity then ashok sharma; resh Maratha; puja chand etc etc successful in terms of money then .......

Prabal gurung

i think in terms of money it has to be ADHITYA JHA, in terms of popularity then we might have a toss of several actors from nepal, now in  usa among nepalese community

 The most successful must be me.

 Never heard of these two. How are they successful?
