Shameen Udawaththa (also credited as Shameen Udawatta and, on some streaming platforms, Shameen Fernando), ෂමීන් උඩවත්ත, is a contemporary Sri Lankan pop singer best known for a string of upbeat collaborations with Tehan Perera. His recordings sit in the modern, radio-friendly end of the Sinhala pop scene rather than the classical or folk tradition.
Shameen Udawaththa came to wider notice through duets billed as “Tehan & Shameen”, a pairing that produced several of his most-played tracks in the mid-2010s and after. The duo’s Ape Anarkali (also known by its opening line “Amba Gaha Yata Api”) and the high-energy Piththa Karata Gaththe are among his most recognised releases. He also recorded a remake of “Ranga Nadeeka”, connecting his work to the song catalogue associated with the Udawaththa name.
Whether searched as Shameen Udawaththa, Shameen Udawatta, or Shameen Fernando, these are the songs by him that appear most often across Sri Lankan music platforms.
