Celeb Chat with Dr Sarath Amunugama

Public Servant, Media Specialist, Scholar and Politician par excellence, Senior Minister Dr Sarath Amunugama makes a very relaxed appearance on Prime TV’s Celeb Chat at 9.30 pm on Monday January 31, 2011.

In a very candid, one-on-one chat, Dr Amunugama recalls his early education at Girls’ High School Kandy (!) and then Trinity College where he excelled in studies. Listen to him wax eloquent about the radical in him at the University of Peradeniya where he even led a strike which compelled Iron Chancellor Sir Nicholas Attygalle to “renegotiate student rights”.

His work with the rural peasantry of Sri Lanka as a Government Agent of the Ceylon Civil Service under Prime Minister Dudley Senanayake...his passion for social anthropology...his love for literature, music, cinema and poetry...his fluency in the French language…all this and more come under the spotlight as celebrity guest Dr Sarath Amunugama chats to host Kumar de Silva on Prime TV’s Celeb Chat. Catch the repeats on Tuesday February 1 at 3 am, 11 am and 8 pm on UHF 24, Channel 75 on Dialog TV and on PEO TV.
