Abhimaananeeyawoo Navodaye - Ivor Dennis

Pasquelge Don Augustine Ivor Dennis of Seeduwa participated in an amateur talent contest held at the Radio Ceylon in 1952, and sang Sunil Santha's 'Waren Heen Sarae Ridee Walaawae'. When the maestro Sunil Santha heard this, he was confused as Ivor's voice was identical to his voice, and asked Patrick Denipitiya to find this man. From that day Ivor has been Sunil Santha's most faithful desciple to date.

In 1958, Ivor Dennis was appointed as an A Grade singer by the Radio Ceylon. His first song 'Kurulu Paraadeesayae' was written by Tilak Sudharman Silva and the music by the meastro Sunil Santha. He has participated in song recitals in various countries including New Zeland, UK, Japan, Indonesia and Italy.

Ivor still continues to carry on with the Sunil Gee tradition, and leads a humble life.

Abhimaananeeyawoo Navodaye is a patriotic song.

Dear Jude,

"Celebrations no doubt" I Think now all the Sri Lankans should rally together and help the soldiers families who lost their lives in liberating S L from the ruthless Terrorists.

S L F P is great in defeating Terrorisome, Like how they defeated JVP insurrection in 1971.

Lalith Athulathmudali once said " No body should play games with Democratically elected governments" , which I too feel is correct.
