Lanka's famed percussion band Elephant Foot.
Sthree Utsav is a much anticipated event on the social calendar not

create new friendship among members and other guests who attend the
event," said the president of the Sri Lanka India Society, Kandiah

done a host of events that include cricket matches and dinners, but this
will be something unique and different," said T.S. Prakash, Revlon Lanka

A number of performances have been lined up for the upcoming evening

dances fused with Sri Lankan and Indian cultural elements.
The theme chosen for this year's event is red which will undoubtedly
add vibrancy and colour to the festivities. |
