When the artistes are constantly invited there is obviously a poor viewer audience as the faces are common who speak what they have already spoken and sing\u00a0 the same songs which obviously not in favour of viewer attraction. Deviating from this under a comprehensive nonconformity \u2018Siyatha\u2019 television on the 6th May the day after the Vesak Full moon day in the week end program \u2018Tharu Piri Re\u201d presented by Rangana of Hiru, Swarnavahini fame in the competent \u2018chat field\u2019 for over two decades in a complete different concept had invited six daughters of legendary vocalists, musicians and lyricists. Accordingly daughters Rupashika Ranatunga,Subani Amaradewa,Manjula Ratnayake,Anuradha Nandasiri, Janani Pieirs and Saranga Ranasinghe were invited to represent the legendary fathers Dr Dayaratne Ranatunga,Pandit Amaradewa,Dr Victor Ratnayake,Sangeeth Nipun Sanath Nandasiri, Visharada Amarasiri Peiris and Dr Ajantha Ranasinghe repectively. The musical Banking was by music maestro Manoj Peiris with his orchestra which could provide music for any song even not rehearsed.\u00a0 It was revealed that the fathers of all daughters have had close links with each other in their personal lives to unprecedented tall elevations which were to some extent not surfaced fully owing to the time barrier restraint in our television media.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">At the beginning after the presenter introduced all daughters of the legends who were asked to say in a word or two how each would describe the respective fathers. Comments were made as \u201cMy whole world\u201d,\u201d Undying God\u201d, \u2018Pleasant human Being\u2019,\u2019Sundara Manushayek\u201d,\u201dBelongs to the whole World\u201d,\u201dAs word defines he is a typical individual\u201d, \u201cMy Weeraya\u201d.Of course\u00a0 all daughters are and were dearly loved by the respective fathers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">All songs sung were Buddhist related and patriotic songs of these legends sung to precision by the related daughters all in their forties. The first song was \u201cMage Ratata Dalada Himi Sevanai\u201d of Dr Victor Ratnayake which was sung by daughter Manjula Ratnayake beautifully harmonised\u00a0 by all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">It was very evident that the producer and the presenter of the program had done \u2018homework\u2019. Dr Dayaratne Ranatunga had been very strict with daughter Rupashika in regard to her getting involved in love affairs. One boy she had seen at the same bus halt who travels in the same bus. Sans her knowledge the interested guy was used to follow her after alighting from the bus.This boy had been sending her pleading love affairs which had been read only by the father only not shown her had asked her to whom\u00a0 are you writing love affairs though she had not written. The boy had in one letter added he was the skipper of the school cricket team having sent photos of his awards. Dr Dayaratne Ranatunga had shown them to wife Amara Ranatunga who in turn had shown to Rupashika.To coincide with this appropriately Rangana invited Anuradha to sing \u2018Dangakara Oya Belma\u201d which was not in the play list. Here Rangana praised the efficiency of Manoj Peiris and his orchestra. Thereafter Rupashika\u00a0 Ranatunga sang her father\u2019s song \u2018Mal Pipila\u2019 once again flawlessly;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">The mother had felt very sorry ,but this had not prolonged any further. Once Amara Ranatunga had travelled overseas to India for studies purposes in year 1985.During her absence a cook lady had been arranged. On a day the aid had gone home which had forced Rupashika to cook for father.She had tried to cook \u2019fried rice\u2019 though she has had no clue on cooking. Had imagined she could cook \u2018fried rice\u2019 had washed the rice had kept the required water level in the rice cooker, had chopped all vegetables that were available including \u2018beetroot\u2019 in large portions and switched on the rice cooker staying by the side until the required time for the rice was cooked. She had opened the lid to see the whole thing in \u2018RED\u201d as she had used a lot of beetroot thinking it was too needed for the \u2018fried rice\u2019.When father came for lunch she had told she had cooked ,had served. When the father came to the table to consume she had watched behind a wall. Dr Dayaratne Ranatunga had consumed all with difficulty but not commented though the entire rice was red coloured. Many talk that this would have made \u2018fried rice\u2019 taboo for him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Janani Peiris when asked about her school days at Lindsay Girls School Kollupitiya she added it was usual for her mother or grand mother\u00a0 to come to pick her up. When father Visharada Amarasiri Pieris comes to take her he used to comb her hair as the duo leaves the gate, more often she is taken to SLBC where he was employed. Janani also quipped that father used to buy her \u201ckada thoru\u201d which delights her, hence she likes when father comes to pick her.When asked about the presents Janani had received from father she said while she was a student in the university of Visual and Performing Arts , she was presented with a \u2018Harmonium\u201d which she treasures and\u00a0 still uses.

She also sang the song \u201cLandune\u201d requested by the presenter as the lyrics of the song by Ranbanda Seneviratne were very eloquent, the music was by Dr Premasiri Khemadasa.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Manjula Ratnayake had been born on 8<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0of July two years after the birth of elder brother Jayantha also was born on the identical day 8<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0of August.They have had some neighbouring friends at Rodrigo Avenue Nawala,the Rideemaliyadde sisters who never failed to bring a lovely birthday cake on this day.It had been always her mother Chithra Ratnayake who used to buy both presents on this special day.But when the duo turned 20 and 18 on the 08.08.1988\u00a0 the father Dr Victor Ratnayake had taken the initiative to organise a birthday party inviting many musical friends , neighbours.
