/>Deepak: I was in my car, just about to reach home. When the jolts started coming, I thought somebody was pushing my car. I figured it must be mischievous neighbourhood kids pushing my car. And I actually shouted at them to stop shaking my car. There was nobody around, and yet the car kept moving to and fro. That’s when I realised that we had been hit by an earthquake.
Deepa: I had just reached Pepsicola, where we had scheduled a Sunday meeting for the annual Teli Awards 2072. The award ceremony was scheduled to be aired live on 13 TV channels all over the country. I was going to television presenter Prakash Subedi’s house to discuss the matter. I had just made a stop to buy some fruits and was getting back into my car when it started to rattle. The quake continued for so long. I noticed electric poles swaying and people shouting Bhuichalo Bhuichalo!! I exited my car and stood by the road.
