Seeing Malani

The day I saw my favourite celebrity, I was at a wedding. She is Malani Fonseka who you all know as the "Queen of the Sri Lankan Cinema"

I was chatting with my friends. Suddenly I saw my favourite film star glimmering in the huge crowd. I couldn't believe it. I thought I was dreaming. But it was true, the famous Sri Lankan actress was at the wedding!

She was wearing a very expensive black sari with silver borders, decorated with silver jewellery. I looked at her for a few moments and then tried to talk to her. But, unfortunately, a crowd gathered around her asking questions and trying to get her autograph.

She has forged her own path to the top of the film industry. She hasn't followed in anyone's footsteps. She got where she is today through her own talent. And that is why she maintains her top ranking in Sri Lankan cinema still.

Seeing Roshan and nearly meeting Saranga!



I went to a Roshan Ranawana concert with my friend. In the audience I saw Saranga Disasekara, the famous actor.
I wanted to get his autograph, but we didn't have a pen. So we were running around looking for one.
He saw us and looked at us as if he was wondering why these girls were running here and there.
Although he was taking photos with his fans, he noticed us!
But in the end we couldn't get his autograph....

Triple H


A: Did you watch that wrestling match yesterday?
B: Where and when was it?
A: It was in California and the match was broadcast last night on 'Ten Sports'
B: Oh! We haven't got satellite in our new house, co I couldn't watch it. Who was in the match?
A: John Cena and Triple H. It was a one-hour Iron Man Match. They used anything to attack: chairs, hammers, ladders...
B: Amazing! I've never seen anything like that in my life. Was it exciting?
A: It was a terrifying match and we didn't know what was going to happen from one moment to the next. But it was exciting for the spectators. Finally, Triple H attacked with a hammer and John Cena was defeated.
