Currently signed with Sony Music & M Entertainment, Ashanthi is the new face of Sri Lanka's youth music and the youngest and only female in the island to be signed to an internationally recognized record label (Sony Music) The Ashanthi'n'Ranidu album 'Oba Magemai' produced under the Sony Music & M Entertainment labels in 2003, was a phenomenal success in the Sri Lankan market. Branching out as a solo artiste with her up-coming debut solo album, Ashanthi, the first Sri Lankan female to be signed to an international recording company, is geared to take the Sri Lankan music industry by storm with a sound unique to her alone. Taking a step forward to reach out to the mass market, while maintaining her hold within the urban / semi urban markets, Ashanthi plans to add new flavour to her music to cater to all three of these segments alike. Ethnic R&B / Hip Hop coupled with lighthearted pop & soul ballads of mass market appeal come together to create a new fusion in Ashanthi's unique genre of 'ethnic music' for the new album.

It will be entirely in Sinhala language (with the exception of 2 English songs) and will consist of 12 tracks. Although the album is targeted to the local market, it is one with global appeal with international musicians being featured.
