සෝස් නෑ කියන කට්ටියට මෙන්න සෝස් එක්කම - අද සන්ඩේ ටයිම්ස් පත්තරේ හෙඩ්ලයින් එක.
No show by President at IIFA
President Rajapaksa was scheduled to attend the premier Indian film awards ceremony already rocked by controversy, as the chief guest. No formal reason was given for the President’s non-appearance despite his security detail (PSD) being present at the venue last night.
It is, however, learnt that the President had indicated to the event organizers that he would not present himself at last night’s glitzy show only hours after the few Bollywood actors and actresses — who eventually turned up in Sri Lanka amidst protest by the Tamil Nadu film industry in India — did not show up at a brunch he hosted for them at “Temple Trees” last morning.
It was not clear if the visiting actors and actresses kept away due to fears of reprisals by the Tamil Nadu film industry or whether the late nights in Colombo kept them asleep. The President’s brunch was at 11 a.m. yesterday.
