As the scent of kiribath fills the air and the rhythmic beats of the rabana echo across homes, we step into another Sinhala and Tamil New Year; Avurudhu, rooted in tradition, gratitude, and hope. This season reminds us to pause, reflect, and realign with what truly matters: family, kindness, resilience, and renewal. May this New Year bring you fresh inspiration, unwavering strength, and moments of joy that linger. Let us honour the past with grace, embrace the present with mindfulness, and welcome the future with open hearts.

Hey you! As the Sinhala and Tamil New Year arrives, I just wanted to take a quiet moment to say, thank you. And I love you. There’s something magical about this time of year. A chance to start over. A moment to breathe. To forgive. To fall in love again; with life, with your people, with yourself. This New Year feels extra special for me because I’ve just begun sharing Aadarei, my second studio album, with the world. It’s soft, it’s personal, and it’s all about love. The timing feels like the universe saying: begin again. So, wherever you are, however you’re celebrating, I hope you’re surrounded by light, music, and a little bit of love that feels like home. Suba Aluth Avuruddak Wewa. Aadarei.

The New Year is more than just a tradition, it’s a powerful reminder that no matter what we’ve been through, we always have the strength to begin again. Let’s carry forward the lessons of the past with courage, and step into this new chapter with love, unity, and purpose. To every dreamer, every mover; this year is yours. Let’s rise together, celebrate our culture, and spread kindness wherever we go. With love and light.

Happy Sinhala and Tamil New Year! As we step into this season of renewal and reflection, take a moment to do something that brings you joy, whether it’s something simple or something you’ve long postponed. Prioritise self-care, and in turn, extend that care and kindness to those around you. Let this New Year be the beginning of saying yes to experiences you’ve always dreamed of but never found the time for. Wishing each of you a blessed and meaningful year ahead; one where your goals come to life, and your dreams feel within reach. Suba Aluth Avuruddak Wewa! Lots of Love.

As the Sinhala and Tamil New Year approaches, I just want to take a moment to wish all Sri Lankans here at home and around the world a truly joyful and peaceful New Year. This time of year reminds us of what really matters: family, tradition, kindness, and hope. It’s also a great time to pause, reflect on the journey so far, and step into the future with fresh energy and belief. At Celeste, we’ve always believed in doing things with heart built from scratch, powered by our people, and rooted in the idea that we rise by lifting each other. That same spirit is what I see in Sri Lanka every day, and it gives me hope for what’s ahead. Wishing you and your loved ones health, happiness, and strength in the year to come. Suba Aluth Avuruddak Wewa! Puthandu Vazthukal! Love.

As we step into a new year, may we all remember that it’s not just about the perfect kavili plate, the beautiful gifts, or the perfectly matching clothes. It’s about the warmth and love in our hugs, the compassion and forgiveness in our hearts, and the courage and strength to begin again, and to strive to be better than we were yesterday. This Avurudu, I pray we soften where we’ve hardened, rise where we’ve been broken, and love like we’ve never been hurt. Suba Aluth Avuruddak Wewa. May this year be filled with love, joy, adventure, and surprises filled with grace. Love.

As we welcome the Sinhala and Tamil New Year, we honour a celebration deeply rooted in our land, our spirit, and our shared identity. According to Asian astrology and ancient wisdom, the true New Year begins in April, when the sun transitions and nature shifts, marking a time of renewal, harmony, and balance. This makes our Sri Lankan New Year one of the most accurate and spiritually aligned celebrations of its kind. As a Performing-Artist who holds a deep respect for our heritage, I find this season to be a powerful reminder of the richness of our culture, the beauty of our traditions, and the timeless rhythm of our ancestors’ wisdom. It’s a moment to reconnect with what truly matters, family, community, and the essence of who we are. May this New Year bring you clarity, compassion, and courage to walk your path with joy and purpose. Let us move forward together, grounded in the strength of our history, and inspired by the light of our future. With love and blessings.

It’s Avurudu time, darling! Time to trade your stress for sweetmeats, your grudges for kokis, and your drama for a round of kiri bath and blessings! As we step into this shiny new Sinhala and Tamil New Year, may your nakath be accurate, you’re redda be freshly starched, and your relatives ask fewer questions about marriage and weight. So light that oil lamp, slap on that smile, and let this New Year bring you joy, peace, and a bit of sparkle. From this Jaffna Boy turned Colombo Diva, Suba Aluth Avuruddak Wewa! Love, laughter, and all the Danu drama you can handle!
