Surprisingly Sri Lanka’s most googled person in the year 2015 is not Maithripala Sirisena, Ranil Wickremesighe, Chandrika Kumaratunga, Rosy Senanayake, Kumar Sangakkara, Yasara Abaynayaka, Wasim Thajudeen, Daham Sirisena, Chathurika Sirisena or even Sumana Gomes but rather an Indian actor and singer named Vijay.
According to the data released by google to the Times Magazine, the most googled people globally have been Lionel Messi, Kim Kardishian and Chritiano Ronaldo.

naturlly,when we are all pretending to be silankans, when we are actually indians.I’am always asked whether i’m indian when i travel overseas.

This is because Google analysts think that Sri Lanka is part of India! They do not know it is a separate country!

shankar / December 26, 2015
you may be right,because whenever i tell these foreigners that i,am srilankan and not indian,their brows furrow in deep thinking and i have to explain that we are the ones who bumped off rajiv ghandhi.Then their faces clear up and they recognise srilanka.I think if we are to differentiate us from indians we have to bump off more of their prime ministers,one is not enough.
As far as the rest of the world is concerned if we look like indian,talk like indian and crap like indian(water with left hand only)then we are indian and they lump us with that 1250 million.

I would have thought it was Wimale’s Sunny Leone

Afzal / December 24, 2015
The reason is sinha ley, which came originally from hindia
Good news is it’s not Leone (that’s sunny lion)

Google’s location data is wrong. They track Tamilnadu coordinates as Sri Lankan. Sigh. The results clearly shows that.

Actor Vijay is an Ealam terror supporter. The boyish-looking actor plays macho-man rolls which is funny and abnormal. Tamil medium TV channels in SL show terrorist supporting actor’s bad movies all, the time that’s how Vijay became the most googled person.

Sri Lanka’s Most Googled Person Is An Indian? Rubbish.
Search my short name, full name and pseudonym names and spot my image in the Google and you will realise that I am the most Googled person.
Vijay is nobody compared to me. He is an actor and I am a realist. Actors get cheap publicity but the realist like me must earn it hard way. So, I am in a better position than the cheap actor.
I am a lion king and will endeavour to achieve the best and I need that recognition.

You do not have to be so rude.
Don’t sink to the low levels.
Whatever you say, I am a proud descendant of a Lion King. With my degree in English I can command in any situations.
My popularity centres around my sparkling beauty and my ability to command any situations at my finger tip. This is a rare quality even Vijay do no possess.
I can only say to you two, to go and fly your kites wearing amuda’s in the Galle Face Green.

“With my degree in English I can command in any situations. “
Winston Churchill was a school dropout and he spoke the best.
Have you heard of him??
there are so many school teachers with degrees in the english language but until they are able to write a bestseller their life remains hand to mouth.
don’t get cheesed 99% are stuck up trolls who don’t care about right or wrong.
you are a politician- one who speaks the truth and sandwiches them with lies.
enjoy life on the fast lane.

“With my degree in English I can command in any situations.”
should be situation,not situations.No need of plural.helping you for your masters in english. Degrees are now dime a dozen.
“command any situations”
again situation,not situations.
“This is a rare quality even Vijay do no possess.”
should be does not,not do no.English comes naturally to some,but to others it is hard work,i don’t know why.
“I can only say to you two, to go and fly your kites wearing amuda’s in the Galle Face Green.”
i woudn’t want to do that if by chance PM was passing by.
i prefer to go on my customary visits to bulgarian beaches in the black sea where i can stroll around in my birthday suit with the other nudists without anyone gawking at me,unlike in srilanka.

“my ability to command any situations at my finger tip. This is a rare quality even Vijay do no possess”
Your command of English appears to fall short when it comes to grammar
it is NOt “This is a rare quality even Vijay do no possess”
Instead should read “This is a rare quality even Vijay does no possess”
Perhaps that’s how you have been taught!

Mistake
Google is referring to Vijaya of Sinhabahu not Vijay of TamilNadu

I was about to ask who the heck is Vijay, and then i googled it.
