    This is freedom of expression. This is what newspapers want. They should not be complaining about these things.

    not provocative but out of focus.

    They both seem to have clothes on. Whats the problem? Are we pretending, as a society, that attraction between humans does not exist? Q: "Thaathi, thaathi, podi baba'la koheng-da enney?" A: "Mey, lamaya, gihilla sil ganna, moda prashna ahanney nathuwa"

    The world is collapsing due to commercialization animal behaviour of human. Certain interested elments influenced film industries to move the people away from (religious) morals and values. This is one of the consequence of Darwinins which deny the GOD and promote the animal behaviour. Serach the net for "PEDOPHILIA: THE TALMUD’S DIRTY SECRET" & 'The Real Ideological Root of Terrorism"

    really. you must be watching quite a lot of internet...i have seen this... this is not what should be on display.

    MAD LANKANS... WHAT'S SO BIG ABOUT THIS.. JUST LIVE LIFE WITH PEACE AND HARMONY...
    THESE STRICT RULES DESTROY COUNTRIES... LIKE AFGHAN... PARKISTAN... BANGLADESH.. .SOUDI... ETC

    This is dhammadeepa where all citizens behave religiously. The hoarding may have been put by a non-sri lankan NGO member. Sri lankans will NOT get provocated. May be for foreign tourists.

    What's so prococative about it? Is everybody going insane or what? Are we trying to make Sri Lanka another Saudi Arabia or what? Morons!

    Sri Lankan Thursday, 28 October 2010 07:41 AM

    Yes Quite provocative - I almost bumped on to the back of a vehicle in front of me when i was trying to figure out how the guy felt with this woman on top Ha Ha Ha.

    By the way why is this pix blurred - C'man any one know where I can get a better look ??? ;->

    Hasiya Thursday, 28 October 2010 07:29 AM

    This is not that provocative compared to the things we see happening around us.... Anyway this is a bit too much.. otherwise this is ok for a change to look at, when travelling... :)

    with all the prevailing corruption in this country why point a finger at only a commercial image ? every banner and hoarding is erected with municipal approval. That Advertisement is gaining all the expected attention the more we comment or talk about it.

    Such Thursday, 28 October 2010 07:20 AM

    Man, these ppl NEED A LIFE......

    mahendra Thursday, 28 October 2010 07:18 AM

    Pradeep should have looked the other way, just like us!

    nayomie Thursday, 28 October 2010 07:17 AM

    pramodha Thursday, 28 October 2010 07:11 AM

    photographer pradeep is a naughty boy, didn't he have anything else to capture?

    Mushi Thursday, 28 October 2010 07:07 AM

    Provocative or abusive or obscene?? I am confused.

    migara Thursday, 28 October 2010 07:06 AM

    less provocative ones have been banned. why spare this only? somebody has oiled the palms

    wasala Thursday, 28 October 2010 07:04 AM
