Silver Screen Sri Lankans
Do you remember Albert Moses? The name doesn’t ring a bell? How about Ranjeet Singh? Ranjeet Singh, is the Sikh in the hit sitcom of the 80’s ‘Mind Your Language’, who would often say “a thousand apologies, sir-ji”. Now you remember him, don’t you?
Having left the hills of Kandy, Moses found his way into quite a few Blockbuster movies, including two James Bond movies – ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’ and ‘Octopussy’. It’s a fairly well known fact that Moses is an actor who is of Sri Lankan origin, but would you believe there are other Sri Lankans who have made it into Blockbuster movies? It’s likely that you’ve seen them in movies, but were completely oblivious to the fact that they share their country of birth with you. So, we at Roar, compiled a little list of Hollywood actors and actresses of Sri Lankan birth to clue you in.
