The production team and cast of "Elephants in the Fog" were honoured on Wednesday with a cash award of Rs 250,000 and a certificate of recognition, in a felicitation programme jointly organised by the Nepal Tourism Board (NTB) and the Film Development Board Nepal to celebrate the film's international success and its contribution to Nepal's global image.
Dawa Sherpa, the Sherpa guide who survived seven days alone in Everest's death zone without food or bottled oxygen, is on the verge of being discharged from HAMS Hospital in Kathmandu after being moved out of the intensive care unit to a general ward, marking a remarkable recovery that has drawn renewed calls for accountability from Nepal's mountaineering community.
