Paba's second marriage .... a trap?
The second marriage of former member of parliament and tele-actress Upeksha Swarnamali which had been fixed to be held at Colombo Kingsbury Hotel yesterday (24) has been postponed.
She had been expecting to marry a businessman and had taken steps not to reveal his name until the eleventh hour.
Upeksha had identified him in a loveable tone as the only person who was close by her side at a time when she was rendered helpless politically and whom she knows for a number of years. However she was scared in providing information about him several times to the media because having gone to enter into a marriage on several occasions they had abandoned her and she was then rendered helpless. What the field of Arts reveal is that the same tune has been played in the case of this marriage too.However what Upeksha had told while addressing a weekend newspaper is that because her mother had been subjected to a sudden heart condition this wedding was delayed and when inquiring about a later date it was not possible to find an auspicious day and thus it ultimately resulted in not being able to fix it for the month of February. She also says that February is a 'Kona maasaya'.
Whatever it is, she had expressed her ideas a few weeks ago to the press saying that since she celebrated her first wedding in a grand style, she does not hope to celebrate the second in an equally big way and that a small get together for close comrades and selected artistes would be organised and that she neither hopes to attend to any traditional customs either. Upeksha has also said that under the circumstances that her mother is sick, she is not able to get married and a date has not been fixed to have the marriage.
A few weeks ago a certain youth had been worrying her and had been saying that he would be coming to her house to get married and Upeksha had complained to Homagama Police too. After reports were published in connection with it the comment readers had made was that it could well be someone who was familiar with her. Her marriage was postponed too after a week later, since that incident.
