Synopsis

During the war the stylized theatre form increasingly became popular in the northern and east regions of Sri Lanka. Then most of the plays were political allegory since a performance expressing explicit views on aspect related to the war was not encouraged the above stylize form has been unique trend. Our senior artists have made enormous contribution to the creation of this form. 

The country has been greatly affected in the aftermath of the war by the consequences of the conflict such as economic crisis, loses, trauma, power struggle and conspiracy. As a result, corruption and bribery raised their head. The prevailing situation brought about solidarity among all the people irrespective of differences. This play also reinforces the above mentioned reality. The present educational system in no way contributed to addressing any of the hardships people undergo now. The debt burden is shouldered by the ordinary masses. Eventually they have to even lose their loincloth.
