Biography


Rana was born in 1858 to Dhir Shamsher Rana.[3] He was not in the rolls of succession as he was born out of wedlock.[3]

He participated in the 1885 Nepal coup d'état where Dambar Shumsher, Khadga Shumsher, and Rana Shumsher Jung Bahadur Rana assassinated then prime minister Ranodip Singh Kunwar.[4] This led to his elder brother Bir Shumsher Jung Bahadur Rana becoming the Prime Minister of Nepal.[3] Subsequently, Bir Shumsher appointed Rana as an aide-de-camp.[3]

Dambar Shumsher Rana had staged pageants and plays for the nobles from the Rana dynasty.[3] In 1893, he founded the Royal Imperial Opera House in Narayanhiti Palace, Kathmandu.[3]

Rana's grandson Balkrishna Sama, is recognised as one of the greatest dramatists in Nepal.[3] He died in 1922.[5]

Dambar Shumsher Rana is recognised as the first photographer from Nepal.[5][6]
