The galaxy of singing and dancing stars that readily made their artistic talents available gratis to the ‘Brave Hearts’ fund-raising project of the Seva Vanitha Army Branch (SVAB) in the recent ‘Tharu Dilena Reyak 3’ musical fiesta was feted and their contribution hailed by the Commander of the Army himself in a get-together at his official residential quarters Wednesday (6) evening.
Lieutenant General Jagath Jayasuriya, Commander of the Army as the driving force behind the realization of the construction of wellness resorts (Abimansala) for totally dependent War Heroes, together with Mrs Manjulika Jayasuriya, President, SVAB warmly welcomed those veteran artistes on the occasion.
Maestro Pandith Amaradeva, together with never-failing Sujatha Attanayake, Anjaleen Gunetillake, Latha Walpola, Anil Bharathi, Eral Fernando, et al, who contributed to the event with their epoch-making rendition, was present at the cordial evening.
Sangeeth Nipun Pandith Sanath Nandasiri and a host of artistes, including the combatant-turned singer, G. Gokulan, Iraj Weeraratne and young film artistes, like Suraj Mapa, Gayesha, Chili, Manjula, Nehara Peiris, Iraj, Clifford, Ravindra, Anarkali, Roshan, Hemal, Damitha, Hemali, Akalanka, Anusha, Menaka and a few others coloured the unforgettable event. Many of them were the guests of the Commander on Wednesday evening.
The choreographer of the mega event, Mr Chandana Wickremasinghe, the renowned artist who threw his full weight behind the success of the mega show, too was present.
Towards the end of the interaction, the Commander of the Army appreciated and honoured Pandith Amaradeva and all other artistes attending the get-together by presenting each of them with a symbolic memento in appreciation of their invaluable share to the success of the ‘Tharu Dilena Reyak 3’ mega show.
Generous participation of those artistes in different fund-raising events in the recent past enabled the construction of both ‘Abimansala’ (wellness resorts) at Anuradhapura and Kamburupitiya for the benefit of more than 100 dependent War Heroes. The one at Pangolla, Kurunegala is to be a reality shortly after its recent foundation stone-laying ceremony.
