Early career
Television
At a very young age, in 1999, Soma started hosting a children’s television programme on Doordarshan, Imphal.
Later she hosted Manipuri Film Esei , also on Doordarshan, Imphal.
Her career as a news reader was cut short on the day of her debut because her father died of a stroke on that day, perhaps caused by the exhaustion of going to the market to purchase some components to repair the family’s television set. Shattered by the tragedy, Soma never read the news again.
