Among the pictures, one image captured auto rickshaws lined up under palm trees. Maitreyi posed against the backdrop of an architecturally brilliant temple. Dressed in traditional attire, comprising a red skirt, a white top and a golden dupatta, she soaked in the beauty of the place. 

After wrapping up her saree haul, Maitreyi relished ice cream at Rio. A close-up shot of the beautifully designed pottery at the eatery, followed by pristine views of the sunset made it to the album as well. “Saree shopping, ice cream, sunsets, and more in Colombo (I got the red saree),” read her side note.
