A star on TikTok…
Social media brings into the limelight lots of folks, with diverse interests, likes, dislikes, etc. And, quite a few of them have turned out to be extremely popular with social media users.
Sanjana Pelawatte is one of them, and her TikTok videos have generated a lot of interests, in addition to her uploads, connected with the fashion scene. In fact, Sanjana was featured in our Glam Scene, not too long ago.
I had a chat with this trend-setter, last week, and this is how it all went…
1. How would you describe yourself?
I would say I’m creative, and hard-working, and, as a person, I have a charming character.
2. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
Perhaps change what I’m doing, at present, and be an airhostess because that has always been my dream.
3. If you could change one thing about your family, what would it be?
It’s been 11 years now and I miss my dad. If I had that opportunity, I would like to spend more and more time with my loving dad.
4. School?
Did my A/L’s at Convent of Our Lady of Victories, Moratuwa, and those school days were some of the best days of my life!
I have faced many obstacles in my life, to be what I’m today. I thank my god for his blessings, as this is the happiest moment in my life, now!
6. What is your idea of perfect happiness?
Live my life, hassle free, help the needy, and taking care of my sweet family.

Yes, I am. I respect all religions, around the world, and, as a Buddhist, I spread love to all human beings.
8. Are you superstitious?
Sometimes I believe in some of these superstitious sayings but it doesn’t bother me much.
9. Your ideal guy?
He must be a good large-hearted and an honest person who I can trust and who could take care of me, the rest of my life. He always needs to be my sidekick and best supporter.
10. Which living person do you most admire?
My uncle Roshan. No words to say how much he has help me to get this far. He is a person who pushed me forward always, and is always beside me, no matter what.
11. Which is your most treasured possession?
To be honest, that would be my self-respect in my career.
12. If you were marooned on a desert island, who would you like as your companion?
It’s my mother. I know if she is with me, I am well protected.

When an unknown person created a fake Facebook account, using my photographs.

At the beginning, most of my friends told me that I was a bit plump. However, I did my daily workouts and showed them that I can do wonders, if I believed in myself.

Love to travel and need to check New Zealand…when the going is good.
16. What kind of music are you into?
I love the kind of music that turns me on, while I’m on the dance floor.

I’m not a big fan of the radio. However, if I do listen, I go with Kiss FM.
18. Favorite TV station?
Not much into TV, as well. If I do get the time, I’ll watch anything.
19. What would you like to be born as in your next life?
Perhaps, a Bollywood actress!
20. Any major plans for the future?
Due to this pandemic, we are not in a position to do much where the fashion industry is concerned, but once things get settled, I’m planning to do modelling and acting. Yes, identifying the right goals and work, according to a plan.
