I've spent over a decade as a director of photography, working across commercial and narrative production in Sri Lanka — and the last several years pushing further into directing my own work. This page isn't a highlight reel. There isn't one yet. What's here is the actual state of the work: a feature in development, the stills behind it, and the infrastructure I've built to make bigger things possible.
A short introduction to how I think about the industry here, and why I'm building inside it rather than leaving it.
A feature film currently in development — a bilingual romantic drama set in Colombo, about language, distance, and what it means to return.
A bilingual romantic drama set in Colombo — a story about two people, two languages, and the distance between the place you're from and the place you've become. Full synopsis to follow as the project moves toward production.
Shot and directed with a grounded, intimate visual language — built around performance and place rather than spectacle. The intent is a Sri Lankan film that plays honestly at home and travels internationally.
Currently in active development — script, budget, and scheduling underway. This page will track the project's progress as it moves from development toward a shoot date.
A running gallery of production stills and behind-the-scenes frames.
The credentials and infrastructure that make the film work possible — not just the reel, but what's actually behind it.
