In this Oct. 7, 2016 photo, Buddhist nun and musician Ani Choying Drolma, center, performs during a concert in Mumbai, India. She is one Buddhist nun everyone in Nepal knows by name, not because she’s a religious icon and a UNICEF goodwill ambassador, nor for her work running a girl’s school and a hospital for kidney patients but because she is one of the country’s biggest pop stars. With more than 12 albums of melodious Nepali tunes and Tibetan hymns that highlight themes of peace and harmony, the songstress in saffron robes has won hearts across the Himalayan nation and abroad.
