Where are you from and what languages do you speak? I am from the Northern part of Sri Lanka (Tamil Eelam) and I speak Tamil and English.
What/who is your all-time favourite band/artist? In the old days I used to listen to a lot of songs by George Michael and Michael Jackson, but I don’t have a preference for music; I like to listen to any type of song in any language because music is meant to be enjoyed by everyone, anywhere.
