Sharing more about this dream shoot, Shrestha said: “For those who know me would know I’m a big fan of Lionel Messi since he was 17 and a professional shoot was on the top of my wishlist ever since I picked up the camera professionally in 2010. I got the chance in Paris & my dream shoot was just a flight away. After Zinedine Zidane, this was my second shoot with an international Footballer.”

Speaking of his experience Shrestha said: “My hands were shaking, my heart was pumping fast, my palms were sweaty while I was doing the shoot but yes I did it.”

“After the shoot, I had the chance to speak with him & his team. Messi was then informed that I was a huge fan and that’s when he came up to me and hugged me. This was the best moment of 2022 for me and possibly in my career.”
