KATHMANDU: Till a few years ago, Rajesh Hamal, one of the top paid film actors in Nepal, was undisputedly its biggest sex symbol. But since Nepal's decade-old insurgency ended with a peace pact, Maoist chief Prachanda has become just that.
After spending almost 14 years underground, the reappearance of the agriculture graduate and former schoolteacher in public creates a response that will stun even the choosiest film star.
Prachanda's first public appearance at PM Girija Prasad Koirala's official residence, after his once banned party signed a peace pact with the government, created a near stampede.
The Maoist chief continues to be the centre of all attention wherever he goes.
The most revolutionary change in people's perception of the guerrillas perhaps came when a women's magazine had readers naming Prachanda as one of the sexiest men in Nepal.
A woman even told Nari magazine that she found the chairman's moustache—resembling Hitler's but with a higher smattering of grey"very sexy".
Prachanda, who is ready to speak his mind on most issues, has remained silent on this new phenomenon.
