Ashan Fernando (අශාන් ප්රනාන්දු), born Ashan Sasika Kumar Fernando, is a Sri Lankan singer, composer, and music director who has become one of the most prolific writers of Sinhala teledrama theme songs. Based in the mainstream television scene, he composes and produces music for channels such as Hiru TV, TV Derana, Sirasa TV, ITN, and Swarnavahini, and has built a large following through romantic ballads and drama soundtracks.
Ashan Fernando was born on 20 October 1992 in Moratuwa, a coastal town with a long musical tradition. He has said that he set out to be a composer rather than a front-line singer from childhood, training as an audio engineer and arranger. His first composition to reach the charts was “Mata Aithi Wela” in 2012, written for other vocalists before he stepped forward as a performer in his own right.
In his earlier years Fernando composed for established artists including Roshan Fernando, Amal Perera, and Dimanka Wellalage. His breakthrough as a singer came in 2016 with “Man Pathanawa”, which became an instant hit and went on to gather tens of millions of views online. Lyrics-lk hosts the track as Man Pathanawa (Samu Aran Ya Yuthui).
From there his teledrama theme songs turned into a signature output. He scored themes for dramas such as Sihina Genena Kumariye, Ahas Maliga, Swapna, Heena Kandana Adare, and Saraswathichandra. Several of these are on Lyrics-lk, including Ahas Maliga (Mage Adare Nam), performed with Lakmini Udawatta, and Rahasin Wage (Saraswathichandra Theme Song), sung with Olu Wasanthi.
Ashan Fernando is known for melodic, sentiment-driven songs that carry a drama’s emotional weight. His widely played titles include “Me Nihanda Bhawaye”, “Saththai”, and “Wen Wenna Thibunanam”, all available on Lyrics-lk in Sinhala script with English translation. He also composed and performed Daiwaye Thiranayak (Daiwaye Theeranayak), one of his most-streamed releases.
As a composer he has worked with a wide range of vocalists hosted on the site, among them Sohan Weerasinghe, Bathiya and Santhush, and Shanika Madumali on the patriotic ensemble piece Nagitimu Sri Lanka (Gammadda Theme Song).
Ashan Fernando works across a mix of pop, electronic, and folk-pop textures, but his lasting mark is as a hit-maker for television, where a strong theme song can carry a drama for years. With dozens of compositions and a steady run of teledrama themes, he remains one of the busy contemporary names in Sri Lankan popular music, and his songs are among the most searched on lyrics sites by listeners looking for the Sinhala words and their meaning.
