Yohani returns from India
Sri Lankan singer Yohani who became popular in many countries around the world, returned to the country after taking part in several concerts in India.
She arrived at the Katunayake International Airport from Mumbai at 11.25 last night (12).
“The Indian people know about Sri Lanka but do not know that there is a language called Sinhala. When I sang a song in a language that those people had never heard of, it became extremely popular all over India as well as across the world. I attended several concerts in New Delhi, Hyderabad and Mumbai. There was a very good response from the people. I’m very happy about that,” she said.
When she went to India, she was lucky enough to meet Jacqueline, a beautiful actress of Sri Lankan origin, and Salman Khan, a veteran Bollywood actor.
This is how SriLankan Airlines welcomed her.
