Author's note

FM Malithi x by Pushpananda Ekanayaka is a free Sinhala display font with broad, looping letterforms and a horizontal flow. Rounded strokes dominate the design. Compact curls and open circular shapes give the writing an ornamental texture without relying on added decoration.

Its generous curves suit cultural event posters, yet they can also lend food packaging a local voice. The repeated loops echo organic motifs, making the lettering useful beside botanical or festive illustration. In publishing, it can shape magazine section titles into a recognizable Sinhala editorial feature.
