Siri Sirimal is a Sri Lankan television series directed by Sunil Costha that aired on Rupavahini from 2007 to 2008.
One day, he plans to join Rosa but changes his mind when he catches sight of the young Daughter of Richman (Lusion Bulathsinghala).
When the murder trial starts and Bempi is on the verge of being convicted, Sirimal & Rosa testify and the verdict changes.
To conjure up the time period of the plot (the 1940s), Subasinghe used a digital effect which recreated the sound of an old gramophone record in some parts of the score.
It resonated with audiences of all ages, particularly students and parents, due to its emphasis on education, resilience, and moral values.
The series also contributed to a renewed interest in Kumaratunga Munidasa’s literary works, further cementing its cultural significance.
