In a move that marks a new era for Sri Lankan content creators, Wasthi — the iconic comedy duo led by Anushka and Dulaj — celebrated their 10-year anniversary by premiering their latest YouTube video on the big screen at PVR Cinemas.

With over 2 million subscribers and a decade of laughter under their belt, Wasthi isn’t just a YouTube channel — it's a cultural force. Known for their sharp humor, relatable characters, and viral sketches, the creators behind Wasthi have spent the last ten years shaping the digital comedy landscape in Sri Lanka.

Now, they're taking things to the next level.


A Premiere Like No Other

The new video, described as "Netflix-level quality," was premiered at PVR, giving fans a cinematic first look at what could be Wasthi’s most ambitious project yet.

10 Years of Influence

Launched in 2015, Wasthi has become a household name — not just for entertainment, but as a blueprint for creator success in Sri Lanka. From digital virality to real-world fanbases, their journey reflects the rise of content creation as a powerful industry.

This anniversary premiere was more than just a video drop — it was a celebration of how far creators have come, and a signal of where they’re headed next.


Why This Matters

Wasthi’s big-screen debut reflects a growing trend: creators moving beyond social media and into multi-format storytelling. In an industry where content often lives and dies on phone screens, this event was a reminder that creators are building brands with scale, vision, and impact.


What’s Next?

While the team hasn’t revealed what’s coming next, fans and fellow creators alike are already calling this moment a turning point for digital storytelling in Sri Lanka.

From viral videos to packed movie halls, Wasthi has proved one thing loud and clear: they’re not just YouTubers — they’re storytellers built for any screen.
