Sililara-2025, the annual talent show organized by the Association of Public Administration,
was successfully held on 29th October 2025, at the Bandaranaike Auditorium, University of Sri
Jayewardenepura. The event celebrated the creativity, artistry, and diverse talents of
undergraduates within the Department of Public Administration, providing a vibrant platform for
them to showcase their passion for aesthetic performance. Undergraduates representing all four
years and a few lecturers of the Departmental participated enthusiastically and performed at the
event, making the event truly memorable.
This year, Sililara-2025 took a heartfelt turn by paying a tribute to the late legendary Queen of
Sri Lankan Cinema, Malani Fonseka, honoring her timeless contribution to the Sri Lankan
film industry. The evening was further elevated by mesmerizing performances from several
invited guest artists.
The event was graced by the Dean of the Faculty of Management Studies and Commerce, Head
and the academic staff members of the Department of Public Administration, Heads representing
other Departments, and alongside a large gathering of undergraduates. The Association of Public
Administration gratefully acknowledge the generous support from the sponsors especially
contribution from the alumni to make the talent show a successful event.
