Bhairav Bahadur Thapa

Bhairav Bahadur Thapa (born 18 February 1933 AD / 1989 Falgun 6 BS, Kamalpokhari, Kathmandu) was a pioneering Nepali dancer, choreographer, and scholar widely regarded as one of the earliest architects of Nepali folk‑dance staging. His creative works began appearing from 2007 BS (1950/51 AD), and he formally entered the field of dance direction around 2010 BS (1953/54 AD) through the Bhairav Nritya Dal, established under the initiative of playwright Balkrishna Sama. This marked the beginning of his influential artistic journey.Thapa revitalized Nepali folk and cultural dance by presenting it on national and international stages, giving the genre a new identity and professional structure. He authored several foundational texts, including Nepali Nritya ra Sharirik Praveshika Parts 1–3 (2022 BS / 1965 AD), Dhoka (2030 BS / 1973 AD), Hiddahiddai Baneka Tasbirharu (2065 BS / 2008 AD), Samarpan (2067 BS / 2010 AD), and Himal Natya Mimansa (2072 BS / 2015 AD), which remain important references in Nepali dance studies.Honored with recognitions such as the Jagdamba Shree Samman and Bhim Darshan Roka Memorial Award, Thapa’s contributions shaped the academic, cultural, and performative landscape of Nepali dance.He passed away after a lifetime dedicated to dance, leaving behind a legacy that continues to guide Nepal’s choreographic and cultural scholarship.
