(Lanka-e-News- 30.April.2014, 11.30PM) Gotabaya Rajapakse had given orders to the producers of the film ‘Rathupaswala Ranja’ that the size of the advertisements and cutouts that are to be displayed pertaining to the film shall not exceed those of MaRa clearly illustrating that MaRa and his regime’s survival depend only on bogus propaganda , advertisements and cutout displays in their make believe world in which only hollow pomp and empty exhibitionism mean everything.Though there exist no such laws in this country nor even in the whole world to impose such prohibitions , Gotabaya has deemed it right to impose this moronic and diabolic prohibition.
It is well to recall it is this same Gotabaya alias Goo- baya who became notorious during the period of the war as the army colonel (now SL’s criminal defense secretary ) who fled the country during the war deserting the forces traitorously citing mentally deranged grounds after getting himself condemned medically ,at a time when he should have remained steadfast and fought for his country. It is the general consensus among all , Gotabaya alias Goo baya had all along demonstrated in every action of his since he took over as defense secretary that he is mentally unstable. His instructions to SL ‘s famous film producer Sunil T. Fernando imposing prohibitions on display of cutouts only go further to confirm his lunacy, and that he has still been unable to outgrow his diseased mental condition and acute megalomania that characterize the regime’s members.
The key role actor in this film is by Ranjan Ramanayake M.P.who has created a record by winning the most popular actor annual award for 8 years.
The theme of this film revolves around the emergence of a hero espousing the cause of the people of Rathupaswala village against the misdeeds and destruction caused by a factory located at Rathupaswala . This film is likely to be screened in the latter half of May .
With the permission of the Performance Board for screening , after a number of scenes were censored , advertisement notices and cutouts were being displayed publicly of the film , with pictures therein of Ranjan Ramanayake who is playing the role of Ranja armed with a pistol , bald headed and tattooed .
However suddenly , an officer of the UDA Ministry had phoned Sunil T Fernando and told him that secretary Gotabaya , wished to meet him in connection with the cut out displays.When the producer met Gota , the latter had told him , the cutouts of Ranja of the film should not be bigger than those of the President , and must be much smaller , otherwise the image of the President will be adversely affected.
It is well to recall that during the tenure of office of former Presidents, Dudley, Sirimavo, R. Premadasa and Chandrika , cutouts of actors Gamini Fonseka and Vijaya Kumaranatunge which were larger than those of the Presidents at that time had been displayed freely and plentifully. Indeed Sunil T Fernando had pointed this out to Gotabaya without avail. But Gotabaya who is suffering from an acute inferiority complex coupled with his insane propensities could not understand it. It is unfortunate Gota who is unlucky to be born with a warped mind and feeble thinking power had not been able to understand it however he tried. Therefore he had sternly replied , ‘do what I say if you want to screen your film , or take to something else.’
The film producers are questioning: if they are paying for the space occupied by the cutout; if they are meeting the costs of the cutout; and if they are paying taxes duly to the relevant local body for the cutout ; what is the right the Medamulana Rajapakse land crocodiles have to obstruct their democratic and legal right to display their cutouts?
