Athula who isolated child with Amaya .... 

speaks for the first time

 Athula Adhikari speaks about Amaya

The Athula-Samitha-Amaya topic was something that caught the attention of many over the internet during the recent past. Athula who abandoned the first marriage by isolating Samitha with the children and the news of isolating Amaya and daughter in his second marriage created a fresh beginning of another topic for most people.
Though Amaya had voiced many things in the presence of the media in this respect, Athula made no counter-reaction to it. However Athula has made his comments for the first time regarding it across a newspaper discussion.

What he says is that the true picture has not come to light over the media and that Amaya is saying various things just for the sake of becoming popular. He admits on that occasion that he is separated. A part of the discussion published in the Meewitha supplement in the Divaina is as follows:

* What do you think about the things Amaya told the media about you?
   Things called gossip is there everywhere around the world in plenty. Those should not be taken into account very much as such. I have not fallen down into a low-grade level  of going forcibly in front of the press and  and slinging mud at the private life of a person. Whatever somebody says about me .... I don't care. Because I know the real situation.

* Then is it false information what Amaya spread against you in front of the media?
   Yes. Those are not true. What she does now is what people around her are telling. The story is known to me and her. I don't want to become popular by saying those things to the media.

* That means Amaya is trying to broadcast bogus information about you and become popular?
   Yes. That's the true situation. I am not a person who ever embraced women and became a popular  character.  I am a person who stuck to my profession and carried it out to the letter. Because of that there is a big fan-mail for me everyday.

* Amaya says that you didn't visit her for about one year ... is it true?
   She of course announces various things across the media. Actually speaking I and Amaya are not living together.

* What are you hoping to do in the future?
   I haven't still thought about it.

* She is supposed to have not done any wrong to you, ever. Then is it you who is responsible for the wrongs?
   It's we two who know as to who had committed the mistake. I don't want to tell the media about it and become popular as such.

*  Do you regret about decisions you took about life on certain occasions?
    Not at all. I am quite a different type of person. I do what I think is right. I don't take anybody's permission for it. I stay happily whatever happens during the time I am living.

* There's a talk that you have embarked on a new journey with Samitha.
   I never had a grudge with Samitha. Though both of us have divorced each other ... we never had a grudge against each other.

* That means you still love Samitha?
   Samitha is the mother of my first two children. Because of that there's a big bond between the two of us.

* Don't you have an idea of remarrying Samitha?
   I can't still say anything about it.

Who said to watch my video in the company of children?

YouTube is for children over 18 -- Nadeesha Hemamali

 YouTube is for adults -- Nadeesha Hemamali

A music video depicting Nadeesha Hemamali involved in a kissing scene sometime back in the internet which became the topic of interest happened to create a sensation. Though there was no dialogue about the song there or the creation of it as such, after most viewers watched the video of 'Nadeesha's kiss' as seeing
it as a scene from a blue film across the YouTube, creators have now come to stage saying that there are Hits in it and thus boasting that the song in it has created a revolution in the history of Sri Lankan Music Videos.

Sometime back when Nadeesha happened to participate at the Neth FM Unlimited programme and was talking about it, a female listener who connected herself across the telephone in the programme spoke by deploring Nadeesha's acting. What she said was that Nadeesha's acting in that song could just could not be enjoyed being watched in the company of her children.

On that occasion Nadeesha was not in favour of her comment. What Nadeesha said was that since YouTube is meant for those above 18, it is the duty of parents to keep children away from it. The dialogue comments that were heard on that occasion, from below:

Listener: I deplore this. I of course don't have any favourable understanding about Nadeesha's acting. There's no question about the song .... there's no issue about the music either. This is not something that could be viewed in the company of a child.

Nadeesha: This is not something that's shown over Rupavahini. It's YouTube. Then you have a responsibility to impose a censorship on your children when showing something like YouTube. That ... as parents you'll should be considerate about that. It's not something done for small children. Social websites are specially meant for those above 18 years to make use of. We have imposed a censorship like that. According to the Law of Sri Lanka it's possible to broadcast anything there. You lady ... must be considerate. Don't show things like that to children.

Listener: I of course can't watch what's in this video. Those what you say can't occur in a complaisant way .... from this video ... you understand? How can a child keep watching in the presence of a mother when engaged in this 'nadagama' which you are talking of?

Nadeesha: Watch it by yourself alone. We have made a separate version to watch in the company of children. We have given it to the Rupavahini media as as a separate version with edited scenes and musically involved scenes. So watch that with the children. This is meant to be shown only to those above 18.

Racket which makes red rice, rose-coloured under the name ....

'Kikko' Rathu Kekulu!

A racket whereby red rice produced for local use is mixed with a rose-coloured coloring or dye not fit for human use by thus making it very attractive is being marketed and was raided by the Consumer Services Authority.  This type of rice which is supposed to be kept for sale at major cities in the plantation areas has been
popularized as 'Kikko' Red Rice. 

Red rice which is bought over from farmers in areas such as Batticaloa, Kalmunai, Samanthurai and Amparai are brought to rice mills and after being husked, this particular dye is added, it was reported. After the colouring is used, the rice takes on an attractive hue and at first appearance the rice looks alluring and therefore it tends to have a good market. 

The rice which is bought in this manner when washed at home, that red rice turns into a deep red, it was learned. Customers had developed a strong liking to buy this rice which was sold at the market for a price of Rs. 70 per kilo because at first appearance the rice was so attractive. What Mr. Wimalasiri Ilukkumbura, Chief of the Nuwara Eliya Consumer Services Authority  said was, that marketing this kind of rice subjected to colouring is totally prohibited from being marketed. He also mentioned that legal action has been filed in courts against several traders who marketed such rice and imposed fines have been imposed while several rice-samples with this same colouring used have been directed to the Government Analyst to obtain his report in that connection.

17 year old white girl who came to bed ....

in the centre of doctor-wife killing incident!

Sri Lankan Doctor Dinendra Athukorala was brutally killed on bed by an axe in Geraldin, Western Australia in June in the year 2014 and his wife Doctor Chamari Liyanage was taken into custody on suspicion as being responsible for the murder, at that time.

After the wife had called the Police Emergency Contact Number  saying that a mishap had occured to her husband in their house, the
police had arrived and they had found that the doctor had been murdered in this manner. This happening which dates back to  two years before is being heard in Australian Courts these days and it is revealed that an involvement of a sexual relationship with a 17 year old white girl too is in the midst of this tragic affair.

The said young girl was met at a dinner party by Dr. Chamari and after she was introduced to her husband the family had maintained a friendly attachment with her. It is said that Dr. Dinendra is someone who had enjoyed somewhat of an unusual sexual behaviour and had even taken a liking to videoing and photographing acts he had with his wife. On the night of the night this particular incident happened, Dr. Dinendra had invited this girl to go to bed with the consent of his doctor-wife. After the 17 year old fair-skinned girl had come to this house she had got ready for these activities and Dr. Chamari had even helped her, she had told the police. Dr. Chamari had even assisted in removing hairs (waxing) on her feet. Dr. Dinendra had proceeded to bring a pair of shoes, as well as a separate camera that day to tape this incident. The three of them had even gone to the extent of enjoying whiskey while engaged in talking various things in the night. Subsequently the girl had told police that Dr. Chamari and Dr. Dinendra had engaged themselves as husband and wife in her presence. She also revealed that in one instance when Dr. Dinendra had approached her in the night, Dr. Chamari had protested against it at once. Whatever it is, even Dr. Chamari had volunteered to drop her at home towards early in the morning, she said.

Later what she heard was the incident that Dr. Chamari had bludeheoned Dr. Dinendra with an axe and had killed him. On interrogations conducted by the police about this incident Dr. Chamari has totally refused to admit guilty of having murdered her husband and what she says is that incidents on that morning has evaded her memory. The police on the other hand suspect that this incident may have happened after sudden provocation in a fit of anger at a moment when Dr. Chamari was highly intoxicated under the influence of whiskey.

What close Sri Lankan friends of their's say is that they had found this couple had spent their time in a pleasant manner. They do not believe that there were conflicts between the two. Even the young girl who has come in their midst say that they were a couple who were always a couple who were full of smiles.

Dinendra Athukorala who was subjected to murder hails from Anuradhapura. He had secured distinctions in all eight subjects at the Ordinary Level Examination after which he had passed out with all four subjects in the Advanced Level Examination too. Later he had obtained his Medical Degree from the University of Peradeniya. At a later period he had gone to Australia, it was reported.

Dr. Dinendra had served Geralton Hospital in the city of Perth in the capacity of a resident doctor for about 1 year and it is said that he was a popular doctor at that medical centre. Australian Police are pursuing further investigations in connection with the incident.
