As news of the massive earthquake measuring 7.9 on the Richter scale hitting Nepal spread like wildfire, Twitter and social media were flooded with prayers and messages for the people affected.
Speaking with media Manisha Koirala said: “I don’t know how to react. It is a huge blow especially for a country like Nepal, which is already going through a political crises.”
Talking about the rising toll, she pointed out, “We only know about Kathmandu and some major towns. No one knows what has happened in the remote areas. The actual toll can be much higher than reported.”
Although she is relieved that her parents, former Cabinet minister Prakash Koirala and Sushma Koirala are safe, the actress is eager to meet them.
“I wish I was with them right now. But as of now all airlines have cancelled their flights to Nepal. I will take the first flight out once they resume service,” she said.
Aftershocks are still being felt across the country and Manisha hopes the government finds ways to minimise further damage.
