Adaraneeya Prarthana

There is nothing much in it and most of the actors and actresses are playing their part in a normal way. The first half of the film is dragging and the second half is somewhat meaningful. The leading actor Rahul Rishika is a new person to the film industry and his acting skills are average but in some instances he nailed it. He needs some more experience to sustain in the industry and he needs to sharpen his skills too. The final message of the story is meaningful but if we take the full film, it is a love story that we have seen before. I wish the team all the very best for their future endeavors.

This is simply one of the best movies I have seen in this genre, especially at a time when Sri Lankan Cinema is losing its common touch and touch of Romanticism. Apart from all the fabulous visuals and camera angles, and apart from the commendable acting ability demonstrated by the comparably new actors, it was a tremendous story which carries a deep meaning you wouldn't notice until you watch the last scene.

As a huge fan of Cinema who has seen all the movies since 'Gone with the Wind (1939)' to present day 'CODA(2021)', I can certainly say that this approach is great, and I was moved. I think this is what Sri Lanka Needs, 'Romanticism'. Romanticism is a philosophy of Art developed in the late 18 and early 19 centuries to reinstate the beauty and love of human life. This was how the people in Europe dealt with the harsh and ruthless living conditions in Industrial Age by being factory workers. I personally think Sri Lankans are also going through such a terrible time now and this type of Romantic artworks are required to ensure positive feelings of life. And thank you to this team for doing that.

For the first time after many years, I felt I was moved by watching a Sinhala Movie. And the best part is at the last, which actually questions the deep roots of our consciousness - as the name puts it, loving wishes... actually what are yours...

I will not be so rude to share spoilers 😊😃🥂.

If you have to scam people into reviewing a movie, it's guaranteed to be less beautiful and impactful than sewage flowing into a pit. I will ensure to boycott all movies with these actors and ask my friends and family to do so as well without exception. A film is an expression of art and emotions that must be appreciated without the influence of scamming roaches funded by large conglomerates who could have afforded to create an actual film with real actors and writers on lesser budgets. For weeks, we Sri Lankans have been bombarded by (asssumed) marketing teams for the movie, non-consensually adding and harassing people on WhatsApp groups. Guaranteed to be another factory made local romance movie.

Have you ever been in love? Have you been lucky enough to find that special one to share your life with? Or are you still waiting for that special someone? Are you parents with children of age to get married and settled? Who ever you are, you can find yourself being portrayed in this beautiful movie AP.

Me being a very occupied and a busy doctor struggling to free some time to satisfy the thirst to appreciate a quality work of art has already watched the movie few times rather than just once.

The artist in me is madly in love with AP not just because of the extraordinarily beautiful music by Yasas Medagedara that drives the story to a different level or because of the exquisite colours, camera angles, art direction and the breath taking sceneries but because of the depth that it touches in life.

Even though it seems as a simple movie with a simple story line, it has been able to open our eyes to the unseen angles of what is obvious and right in front of us. It speaks of the inescapable reality when it comes to ownership in love, As Rahul, Parami and Menaka fight a battle of their own on one common ground of love.

The upcoming and popular actresses Roshel and Shanudri who gives life to Parami and Menaka, are doing an excellent job in trying to link to ends of the world they are lost in by the heart melting expression of emotions.

And this link being non other than Rahul himself who is a novel face to the movie industry, gives a whole new touch and a different perspective to the usual and the conventional lover of a romantic story, by his natural and unique ways of doing justice to the simple yet completed, shallow yet deep, found yet lost and expressive yet the introvert character in which he plays an extraordinary role.

From the very first day until now AP has never failed in making me get emotionally lost in my thoughts every single time i watched it.

The crowd of the audience that comes out of the theatres after their lives being reflected on the screen in AP with eyes full of tears beats any other evidence to prove what an exquisite creation of art it is by the family of AP directed by Wasawa Baduge.
