Udumalala, Devika, Udumalala... ’ She squandered hours and hours of her life muttering those two words. However, time passed without giving any conclusion regarding the name.

We could start with Udumalala.If not, we might face a big issue when making her payments in the future. That is what Suranga thought, above all other things. Therefore, we must use these "U" and "A" with Devika Perera. Moreover, some other attractive name commencing with letter "U." She finally decided. We can omit the initial letter A if we use Udumalala just as a name. So there you are.

Therefore, according to Suranga, she must consider all the names related with the culture, tradition and history and pick the most suitable one out of them. While she was worrisome about this, her mind recalled the name Udumbara, on track with the letter "U".

"Wow!" says one.That is the only name. Udumbaraa! That would be the perfect name. Udumbaraa and when the Devi comes with it, it would lavishly become Udumbaraa Devi. ’

                                    *********************************************

She got thrilled at her own achievement and confirmed it on her own.

Suranga, you are fantastic. When you say Udumbaraa, no one believes you. No one will ever think of a person like me. Actually, when you call me Udumbaraa Devi, no one will remember me. Even I could not believe that it was me. Surely that name is perfect. " That is what Devika said the following day when Suranga informed her about the change in her name.

There is nothing surprising about it.Can’t you remember the Udumbara Devee who came in our literature book?’

Oh, no!How can I remember those things as I did not learn them after my O Levels? ’

But Dewi, we did Ummagga Jathakaya only in the Ordinary Level class, weren’t we? Can’t you remember even Mahoushada?’

Suranga tried to recall Devika’s memory by asking that.

Oh! "Now if only I could remember the Udumbaraa Devi of Pinguththara’s who came on the Siri Kalakanni puzzle?’

 ‘Yes, yes, you got it correct." Another thing is that I was looking for a name that started with the letter "U."

 ‘What is the point in that? Devika asked. She asked that question, because of lack of her knowledge about the film industry.

 ‘Devi, your name is Udumalalage Devika Perera. Therefore, we must use Devika with some other word that commences with the letter U. If we do not do that now it self, when you are busy with lots of other films and when you deal with payments, your name might cause you a problem. ’

‘Oh! Suranga, you are making a joke on me. ’

‘No, it is not a joke. Once you become a professional actor, you will be busy with other film directors as well as with me. I am sure of that. You have that kind of talent and creativity with you. ’

You definitely will be one, and I wish if you were to be awarded as the best actor, who I introduced to the screen to be the best actor.

How can I thank you enough now that I barely did enough, as I owe you so much more?

I must do this, if not for the sake of allowing me to be the best actor, then for the sake of lending a helping hand to a helpless woman like my self and making my childhood dream a reality.

‘Oh! Take it easy. Devi, you are no longer the same Devi as you were yesterday. You are now Udumbara Devi.Take it with you. OK?’

‘Ok, Anyway, I have obeyed you without question, have I not? There is another thing, if that name suits me very well. Doesn’t it?’

‘What made you to say so?’

‘That is because, though his name does not tally, I happened to marry a person who had qualities similar to what Pinguththara had.'

‘Oh! Devi, I did not name you while having that kind of thing in my mind.’ Suranga said that with difficulty.

‘No, do not bother Suranga. You just forget it. If Asela had not been such a man, he would not have lost me as I lost him. Anyway, even though I lost him, I might still have a child. Dewi muttered that in a tone mixed with her mental depression.

‘That is true, even if she had a child." Sranga happened to think this.

‘But this way is better in a way. If Devi had children to look after, she would not be a free person like this. If she was not a free person like this, I might not have chosen her for this character. ’ Suranga thought so.
