Derana Dream Star Performs At JVP-backed Event

M.G. Dhanushka, the singer from Embilipitiya who emerged as the Derana Dream Star a few weeks ago, performed at an event organized by the Socialist Youth Wing, affiliated with the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna. 

In a context where a large number of artistes have openly  aligned themselves with the UPFA government, Dhanushka's move to perform at the JVP backed event has drawn the attention of many, as a radical decision. 
 
Along with Dhanushka, several other artistes too participated in the ‘Brotherhood Day’ celebrations held at the Viharamahadevi Open Air Theatre on June 27. 
 
The vent was organized against communalism and to build national unity by the Socialist Youth Union (SYU), the youth wing of the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna.
 
Artistes, who performed at the event, event voluntarily expressed their views against racism and communal disharmony.
 
Popular singers such as Sunil Perera, Nalin Perera, Ishak Beg, Deepal Silva, M.G. Dhanushka, Udesh Indula, Chamara Prasad and Rukman Asitha performed at the event as guest artistes.
