The three reality programs which have created much hype among viewers
of Swarnavahini: Comedy Star, Singing Star and Shadow Star, will come to
a climax at the SLECC (Sri Lanka Exhibition and Convention Centre)
October 17 at 6.30 p.m.
This will be the first time in Sri Lankan television history that
three reality programs conducted by the same channel will conclude at
the same event. The event will also be telecast live on Swarnavahini on
that day.
All three programs of the series were launched in November last year
with thousands of applications flowing in for each category.
Nine contestants, three from each program, have made it to the finals
and will compete for the titles of Comedy Star, Singing Star and Shadow
Star on October 17.
They are Upul Nishantha, Chaminda Weerasinghe and Nandana
Hettiarachchi from 'Comedy Star', Manusha Anuradhi, Chathura Chinthaka
and Sandun Sasanka from 'Singing Star' and Prasad Gallapatthi (Mr.
Bean), Sisira D. Gunaratne (Mohideen Beig) and Shiran Chandana Peries (Deepal
Silva) from 'Shadow Star'.
The three winners will receive a motor vehicle and two luxurious
houses each worth Rs. eight million. Many young artistes and key figures
in the scene are expected to grace the occasion to make it a never to be
forgotten event for those who take part or witness the show on
television. |
