Plot
In 1505, Lourenço de Almeida, a Portuguese naval ship, landed in Sri Lanka mistakenly due to a storm during a voyage. The story dated to the legends about King Vijayabahu VII of Kotte and his sons Bhuvanaikabahu VII of Kotte, Mayadunne of Sitawaka and Raigama Bandara princes who succeeded King Parakramabahu IX of Kotte. Neelamani is the daughter of the King's army leader, where one of his warriors, Asanga falls in love with Neelamani. However, Nilamani had captured the heart of Nayanananda, a young man from the upcountry who worked as a spy. After betrayal, king's men were after Nayanananda and he hide in army leader's stable. Meanwhile, three sons plan to ascend the throne by killing their father. With several incidents in line, Asanga expressed his love for Neelamni, who refused it due to Nayanananda. Both Nayananada and Asanga went for a war and Asanga promised Neelamani that he will protect Nayanananda. However, Nayanananda is captured during the fight and Neelamani scolds Asanga. Asanga goes to the Portuguese camp where he persuades Nayanananda to escape and Asanga takes his place. He eventually escapes with another girl who happens to be a daughter of an old friend. He returns to Nayanananda and Neelamani who pleads Asanga's forgiveness for her stupidity. Soon after mortally wounded Asanga succumbs to his injuries and passes away
