Another Miss Sri Lanka debuts in Bollywood

Miss Sri Lanka 2009, Gamya Wijayadasa makes her debut in Manish Manikpuri’s Aalaap with an item song called Chadhti Jawaani.

The music of the item song has been composed by Agnee and the song is already a rage all over Chattisgarh where Gamya performed recently at a promotional event organized by the producers Nishant Tripathi and Abhishek Mishra of Sri Shankaracharya Arts.

Gamya has an MBA from the University of Melbourne and says that she flew down to Raipur to shoot this song even without having heard it.

“It’s a situational number that has been picturized at an engagement party of one of the pivotal characters in the film.”

The lyrics of the song sung by Kanika Joshi and Bonnie Chakraborty go like: “Chadti jawani mazedar/Dheere dheere le le maja.”

Being a Sri Lankan, Gamya didn’t understand most of the song’s lyrics.

“But that wasn’t an issue. The film deals with how music is used to quell Naxallism in Chattisgarh ad stars Amit Purohit, Pitobash, Rituparna Sengupta, Raghuvir Yadav, Omkar Das Manikpuri, Murli Sharma, Aabid Shamim and Abhimanyu Singh.”

Gamya Prasadini Wijayadasa was the winner of Derana Veet Miss Sri Lanka in 2009.
