The grand finale of Derana ‘Teen Star’, the reality singing competition showcasing the musical talents of Sri Lanka’s younger generation, was held successfully this evening (17).

Team Agni Wins Group Category
Three groups competed in the Group category of the grand finale, with Team Agni ultimately securing the championship.

The Solo championship was won by Imeth Jayarathne of Maharagama, who emerged as the winner following the audience SMS vote.
