The Last Long Night

"Akasa Kusum" dug in on its final overnight shoot on schedule #2, with the crew and cast working into Wednesday morning, as the night club sequences were finished, and a fresh scene just outside the club was filmed.
The night's shoot was notable as it consisted the only scene in which all three of the film's main stars, Malani Fonseka, Dilhani Asokamala and Nimmi Harasgama appear. In the scene, Sandhya (Fonseka) and Shalika (Asokamala) encounter Priya (Harasgama) in the shady night spot Priya works at. Also in the scene is Bunty, played by Samanali Fonseka.
The crack of dawn sequence shot early Wednesday had Sandhya and Shalika looking for Priya, only to have a karaoke hostess tell them she has no idea what they're talking about.
The film will continue shooting for five more days, following which photography will commence in March following a six week hiatus.
