After that, he had served as a teacher at Kuliyapitiya Galpola College.

Meemana Premathilake. S. There was an opportunity to meet many gentlemen who go to Subasinghe. He got out because he took part in a staff workshop, says Baw.

Berti Gunathilake joined Sri Lankan Radio (Radio Ceylon) in 1947 through the Children’s Ground program. He attended children’s programs on the radio and then went to comedy programs in Kalyama.

Bertie played one of the 3 main characters in Sri Lanka’s famous ‘Entertainment Season’ on radio and television for several decades. Samuel and Anasley the other two are no longer alive either. Bertie Gunathilaka had also written many copies of the comic notes.

Lankan radio was connected with the Children’s Padiya program in 1947 and a comedy program that was more popular than the “Entertainment Time” in our radio history. Their sayings were something that our people can apply in everyday life. Bertie Pem Malala, under the bridge, God save the truth, Mana Mohini and Somi Boys played many comedy characters in popular commercial films like. He also received awards for this in 2013, 2014 and 2021

Sri Lankan television in 1983 programmes were broadcasted by Bertie, Anasley and Samuel. That show was a very popular one. From 1960 to 1990, he appeared Bertie in almost every comedy show on TV and radio.

Today reminds me of how he used to visit the Lakehouse in 1977-80 season. He came forward and many came forward to supply him with testimonies. S, the author of our Ekala Silumina. From today we remember the past that he spent with us in the pillars, making jokes with Mr. Subasinghe, Edwin Ariyadasa, Edman Ranasinghe. His words always brought a smile to our faces. That’s one of his instincts. Bertie Gunathilaka, an artist with such diverse talents, will never be in our memories.

The programs that were seen on the screen of Rupawahini will always remember our fans around the world. The newspapers are about to inform about his funeral. His service made us all happy.

Our comedy, seller artist Berti Gunathilakaya.

Good bye to you all.
