The film was initially titled Miringu Yaathra.[5] Its plot is based on a King Ravana's missing Ancestry Book which was hidden for more than 5,000 years.[6] The film was shot around Rattota forest areas, Dambulla, and Kaludiya Pokuna Forest.[7]
It is essentially a love story between an architect and a beautiful village girl. The architect, Kalpa (Channa), travels to a hill country village for work and it is there that meets Menaka (Chaithra). Kalpana faces many challenges with a local group of thugs secretly investigating King Ravan's Ancestry Book. Menaka is a part of Ravan's Ancestry. Her father was murdered by some hidden enemies because of a conflict over a secret document regarding the Ravan Ancestry. Kalpa gets more intrigued about this matter and turns to the monk at the village temple for advice.[8]
The journey to the truth is full of challenges and along the way the duo fall in love.[6]
The music is a collaboration between Dr. Rohana Weerasinghe and Dinesh Subasinghe.
