‘Machan’ talks about illegal migration

Winner of Venice Days section of the Venice Film Festival-2008, 'Machan', a real life drama on a group of young Sri Lankans' smart flight to Europe, is now being screened at Regal- Colombo and other CEL circuit cinemas around the country. Directed by Academy nominated Uberto Pasolini, the film is co-produced by Prasanna Vithanagage and scripted by Ruwanthie de Chikera. Woven around the much debated issue of illegal immigrants of poor Developing World to rich Europe in search of wealth and happiness for their kith and kin, the film narrates in a lighter, satirical and comic manner.

Khemadasa - A ‘Master’ by all means…

As we all know, the word ‘Master’ is a general term which is regularly used to describe someone who is skilled in a particular subject or in an art form. But to many Sri Lankans who lived in the past few decades it was person's name, for they knew only one ‘Maste’ in their life. That was how maestro Premasiri Khemadasa was unofficially 'Knighted' by his fellow countrymen for the musical brilliance he displayed in the Sri Lankan music arena.
