out of 4 movies made by Asoka Handagama, this was the first one i had the opportunity to watch. The story,dialogs were typical of Asoka which are and full of life and reality. the storyline was flawless in my opinion and the courage to create such cinematic piece in a country like Celinka amazed me and my brother who watched this movie together.
first of all the the contents of the story , the controversial, taboos of conventional srilankan society is heavily exposed in this movie. this was a very refreshing experience for me in srilankan cinematic history. the characters were chosen to perfection and the only thing missing was the the technical support Handagama lacked being a srilankan movie maker. if he had the support of a professional technical support even as much as modern Korean , hong Kong movies have this film would have been lot better.
and after seeing Asoka's tele dramas, my expectations were high while anticipating his conversion to silver screen. And to my fortune, he didn't let me down.
