Everybody (CCM)
“Palini Sunkara has a natural style which makes any of their dialogue seem as though it had been created on the spot. Given that Mx. Sunkara would have had to memorize five separate roles, it is even more impressive how easily they execute their role of the night. [Palini] has quite a bit of depth to offer whichever stages she chooses to grace once she has finished at CCM.”

Peerless (Human Race Theatre Company)
“Sunkara and Fernando are the perfect duo as twins M and L. The script flies in this show and these two have impeccable timing with overlapping lines and half-finished sentences. They are delightful sinister when they are together, each one pulling the other deeper into their dark spiral whenever one starts to come to her senses.”

“The Ten Best Theater Performances in the Dayton Region” by Dayton Daily News:
“…fabulous Human Race newcomers Dinithi Fernando and Palini Sunkara dominated with chatty, cruel glee, especially in an unnerving scene.”

Emilia (CCM)
“Sunkara is a strong actor who has a wonderful way of showing the character’s betrayed innocence as she goes from losing her parents to being placed into an arranged marriage with someone she barely knows and does not love.”
- League of Cincinnati Theatres
“Palini Sunkara begins as Emilia in her younger years, full of passion, ambition and nowhere near ready to fall in love. The spirit and genuine air Sunkara brings the role, breathes life into the three Emilia’s…The inner turmoil between Emilia’s love for a man who shares her passion, and her disdain for his ability to freely give it to the world, is showcased so purely by Sunkara.”
