Renowned Sri Lankan director Prasanna Vithanage’s Oba Nathuwa Oba Ekka (With You, Without You) is all set to see a limited release in India with PVR Director’s Rare. Adapted from Fyodor Dostoyevsky’s novella, ‘The Meek One’, the film casts National Film Award winning actress Anjali Patil (Chakravyuh fame) and Sri Lankan actor Shyam Fernando in the lead.
Originally a Sinhala and Tamil-language film, With You, Without You will release with English subtitles in Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai, Pune and Hyderabad on June 13.
Set in post war Sri Lanka, With You, Without You is the story of two people who collide accidentally. Through these characters, the film expresses a deep and seemingly unbridgeable chasm that conflict almost always creates. The two ends of the thirty-year-old bloody civil war in Sri Lanka, 45 year-old Sri Lankan man Sarathsiri (Shyam Fernando) and 24 year-old Tamil girl Selvi (Anjali Patil) fall in love only to discover that the colour of love is blue, and life, shades of grey.
