SAARA ABEYWARDANE
Q: How do you resist the delicious seasonal yummies – or do you simply give in to temptation?
A: Well, it depends on the mood and my work schedule. If I have a show or events, I’ll let it be and move ahead with my workout. But if I’m free, I’ll try to eat as much as I can!
Q: Do you celebrate Christmas or make use of the holiday to get away somewhere quiet?
A: Holidays are very important to me and my family. I simply want to shop and buy presents for my friends and family – and make the most of it. But this Christmas, I just want to be with my husband and enjoy the time with him.
Q: What plans are you making for 2023?
A: That’s a big mystery for me as well... I have a few plans. What’s most important is to move to Canada and live with my husband. And I want to come back for some television shows and events.
Q: What do you indulge in – perhaps forgetting the calories and your fitness regime – at Christmas time?
A: Like I said before, it all depends on my schedule. Usually, I’d like to enjoy the food and drinks but I will always have a plan. If I’m free and have nothing important work-wise, I’ll eat whatever I like and have a rough workout session after the holidays.
Q: Would you be on the ‘naughty’ or ‘nice’ list?
A: Always on the nice list with a hint of naughtiness… I want to have both!
Q: What is the ‘big one’ on your wish list?
A: I wish the best for the world – peace and joy! More tourists to visit Sri Lanka – and I wish our country finds solutions to all the issues there are and moves forward as a proud nation.
