View(s):By Susitha Fernando
Started filmmaking with ‘U- turn’, a remake of an Indian movie, Channa’s new film revolves around Rathi and Anil who are lovers living in testing times. Amidst economic hardships they are forced to choose other means to make their ends meet. A simple scam they attempt gives them an unforeseen satisfaction. Where will this new path lead them?
The story narrates as the young couple who resorts to an unconventional profession to earn a living. The young girl pretends to be a prostitute and offers her service to rich customers. But as soon Rathi is escorted to a room, Anil gate-crashes there and robs the customer while taking his photos to blackmail him later. The practice continues until one day their ploy is failed and Anil is beaten up mercilessly and Rathi is abducted by a gang of thugs. They arrange to sell Rathi as a prostitute but one of the gang members runs away with her.
