Description

The character Podi Patharakari was introduced by the director Nalan Mendis in the 250th episode of the teledrama Salsapuna.[9][10][11] Podipathara Kari, also known as Preethiwa, is a teenage wealthy girl who completed her higher studies in London. Her father is a corrupt government minister. Due to the problematic environment in her house she decides to leave her wealthy life behind and begins to live a simple life as a journalist with the intention of fighting against injustice. According to the producer Sandya Mendis, in several instances in the teledrama, Podi Paththarakari is described as a bit arrogant and opinionated in order to establish her character as a social justice warrior. Because of her craving passion of becoming a journalist, she ends up learning Professional Journalism from Narmada together with Nilhan. Preethiwa and Nilhan are then depicted as soulmates who face many life challenges together.
