But the rest of the music, on the whole, is catchy and involving. There’s been grumbling in some quarters about one of the songs, which is a reworking of the Pakistani megahit Pasoori here, the original’s melancholy beauty is ditched for a blander, more upbeat sound. It stars Ranjan Ramanayake, Arjuna Kamalanath, and Buddhika Jayaratne in lead roles along with Ariyasena Gamage, Himali Siriwardena and Sriyani Amarasena.
Directors: Kalpana Ariyawansa, Vindana Ariyawansa Stars: Shyam Fernando, Samanalee Fonseka, Suranga Ranawaka, Buddhadasa. This is a film bursting with colour and movement, with talky, dramatic sections ceding to epic dance sequences involving hundreds of impeccably turned-out performers. Raja Horu is a 2013 Sri Lankan Sinhala comedy film directed and produced by Suranga de Alwis. After his wife leaves him, a man with a severe case of OCD who fears that his own urine is contaminating everything around him, admits himself to a mental hospital for treatment to overcome his fear and win his wife back. Sattu’s chances with her soon rise, however, when he gallantly saves her life and is promised her hand in marriage by her sinister father, for reasons that are slowly teased out. Two friends, Manoj (Gihan De Chickera), a bartender, and Stanley (Dharmapriya Dias), a fruit vendor, wish to immigrate to the West to seek their fortune, but have difficulties getting their visa applications approved. When he goes to a dance and sees the resplendent Katha (Kiara Advani) performing, he resolves to win her heart – only to discover that she has a flash boyfriend. Set in Gujarat and directed by Sameer Vidwans, Kartik Aaryan plays Sattu, an unemployed loafer who spends his time moaning about his enduring virginity and doing the housework (badly) for his despairing parents. There are strains of Richard Curtis and even Shakespeare in this charmingly cheesy Bollywood film about a thirtysomething manchild who falls for a woman way out of his league.
