Singer Cha Nongphani Marks 100 Days for Late Father
Singer Cha Nongphani held a 100-day merit-making ceremony for her late father at her home in Ang Thong Province, with plans to donate an ambulance to her birthplace hospital as part of ongoing tribute efforts.
On July 23, 2569, singer Cha Nongphani Mahadthai held a 100-day merit-making ceremony for her late father Pradis Mahadthai at her home in Sawaeng Ha District, Ang Thong Province. The event was simple and intimate, attended by close family and devoted fans, with emphasis on Buddhist rituals and merit-making for ancestors. Cha explained that her father had appeared in her dream only once after she complained to his photograph that he visited someone else in a dream instead of her. In the dream, her father asked if she had made merit that day and said he could not eat anymore before waking up. She noted that her mother still grieves daily after 40 years together, and that while Cha herself does not gamble, monks at the ceremony whispered lottery numbers—21 monks attended though only 20 were invited. Cha also revealed ongoing merit-making projects, including serving as major patron for a three-day robing ceremony and planning to donate an ambulance to Sawaeng Ha Hospital, the hospital where she was born.
