Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe had informed the State Film Corporation Chairman to get the cinema hall owners to provide three dimensional spectacles to viewers who come to watch movies made using high technology.

This direction was given to Film Corporation Chairman by Prime Minister following information received by him that an extra amount is being charge for the three dimensional spectacles in addition to the fee charged for tickets.

He has also instructed that laws should be brought in to make the cinema hall owners to print the fees on tickets.(Yohan Perera)

    Mr PM, Is this how you are going to reduce the living cost burden? Is this why we vote you in for? Get the priorities correct or simply step aside.

    shanthapriya Monday, 28 May 2018 03:29 PM

    he doesnt know that theses spectales can be used only for specially made 3D films

    johan Monday, 28 May 2018 11:40 AM

    Sincere Monday, 28 May 2018 12:24 PM

    Chuyingam, bracelets, planes to take the produce of young people to foreign countries, wi-fi and now 3d glasses.

    Slay Monday, 28 May 2018 12:25 PM

    He should get his head examined for uttering such rubbish when the country is going through a crisis.

    Gummay Baiyya Monday, 28 May 2018 08:23 PM

    @Slay, Examining heads are good only if there is anything in that skull worthy of being examined.

    mnsmart Monday, 28 May 2018 12:26 PM

    Bye, I'm off to a movie

    Thisera Monday, 28 May 2018 12:30 PM

    Why does anyone need 3D spectacles? You and your cronies put on a spectacle every day...

    Royce Monday, 28 May 2018 12:49 PM

    Viji Monday, 28 May 2018 01:39 PM

    Ravi Monday, 28 May 2018 03:47 PM

    From where can I obtain a loan to buy the movie tickets?I am bankrupt already after buying the essential basic food items.

    Joe Silva Monday, 28 May 2018 07:50 PM

    Come on Mr. PM take action to stop the fever spreading from the north to the other parts of the country. and ensure people go for the movies with your 3D spectacles

    Ravi Tuesday, 29 May 2018 09:02 AM

    This is sure due to dotage.

    Yazzy Tuesday, 29 May 2018 11:56 AM

    Saying of the day!!!

    Purni Dissanayaka Tuesday, 29 May 2018 12:49 PM

    Don't you have better problems to solve??????..............................

    Sajith Tuesday, 29 May 2018 03:17 PM

    Bakaladasa Tuesday, 29 May 2018 12:54 PM

    Ranjith Tuesday, 29 May 2018 01:09 PM

    Great Idea PM. this man is a visionary with a brilliant mind. Who need food and shelter when we have 3D spectacles?

    Yashod Malaka Tuesday, 29 May 2018 01:13 PM

    Well 3D has to be provided to watch a 3d movie and it has been happening. the problem is sharing the 3D glass cost with the movie importers. Th glass is a property of the cinema not the movie importers.

    Kaplia Perera Tuesday, 29 May 2018 03:19 PM

    Look like you have not studied the case.....

    liamsi Tuesday, 29 May 2018 04:34 PM

    He is making room to get Mahinda elected and he can be the opposition leader..he want do nothing to uplift the party or to the country ..

    Laptpo Tuesday, 29 May 2018 05:05 PM

    PM Sir, From time to time you come out with giving Balgles, Laptops, and Now with 3D Spectales. people think that you are taking the youngsters for a ride. Try to reduce the cost of living - that will be good enough.

    JIM Thursday, 31 May 2018 09:36 AM

    As usual, making a spectacle of himself.

    Tharupa Ekanayaka Thursday, 31 May 2018 04:43 PM

    Another one sided decision in favor of his cronies. In this way Movie importers should provide 3D glasses , Silver screen and 3D unit to the cinemas if they are to claim that money. All those equipment is property of Cinemas. Learn the facts before giving a foolish verdict.
