Directing this movie was a deeply personal journey for me. As Dr. Upul Weerasinghe (Upul Mama), I wanted to create a film that speaks to the hearts of everyday people. From the first draft to the final edit, my focus was on honesty, cultural depth and visual storytelling.

I believe this movie succeeds in portraying the emotions and struggles of its characters while also celebrating our local heritage. There are moments where I feel the film truly captures the spirit I envisioned, especially in the way the characters grow and the environment breathes with life.

Of course, as a creator, I also see areas to improve - pacing in some scenes could be tighter, and certain transitions could flow more smoothly. But overall, I'm proud of what my team and I have achieved. This film is a reflection of my values, my community and my dream of bringing authentic Sri Lankan stories to the.
