The digital filmography of Sri Lanka on YouTube is a blend of modern "teledramas" (television dramas) and classic cinema.
Sri Lanka Tube's filmography section features a diverse range of films, including classic movies, contemporary blockbusters, and independent productions. The platform offers a vast collection of Sinhalese films, which account for the majority of Sri Lankan productions. Some notable films available on Sri Lanka Tube include: Sri Lanka Sex Video Tube
Most Sri Lanka Tube content is available on their primary YouTube channel ( Sri LankaTube Official ). However, due to the age-restriction of some political satires (labeled as "harmful content"), they have migrated certain videos to a secondary channel called SLTube X .

Interestingly, the success of Sri Lanka Tube’s filmography has reversed traditional cinema dynamics. In 2024, the top-performing YouTube film Rosa Mala Tharaka received a limited theatrical release in Australia and the UK for the Sri Lankan diaspora. Furthermore, several "popular videos" are being compiled into a Netflix-style anthology for a new OTT platform called LankaFlix .
A clip from Derana Little Titans (2022) featuring 8-year-old Siheli singing "Diwya Nadee" became the most-watched Sri Lankan YouTube Short, surpassing 312 million views.
