About Parawarthana
Rathane Aiya lives in the neighborhood with a mother and two sons Jayasena and Siripala. The day before the Poya, Siripala kills his older brother. Rathne is the prime suspect and arrested. He is sentenced to death on the gallows. While awaiting death, he confesses his bad behavior during his past. He thrived in terrorizing the village with ill-gotten money and power. He came there to evade punishment for a double murder. Since then he has tried to live a good life, putting his past behind him, becoming a 'good Samaritan' who is respected by all.
Directed by Jayanth Gunawardhane, Parawarthana leans on a strong ensemble — Somy Rathnayake, Pubudu Chathuranga, Bimal Jayakody — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2014.
