Recently we had visited darjeeling and surprised by the people's love shown towards Prashant. They are waiting for his performance in hometown darjeeling, a big due since he became an indian idol, which was impossible without the support of these locals. I appeal Mr Prashant to consider this and make a performance in darjeeling.
