Iragi Nangi,
You lost everything by betraying your soul in name of your own benefits.
You attacked JVP for the Avan gard money.
You attacked Ranjan and others who should not be attacked.
So you need life-time to recover all these things and to win the confidence and recognizance from your fellow artists and Sri Lankan society.
