Sinhala Kunuharupa Katha, also known as "Puppy Love" or "Infatuation" in English, refers to a popular narrative theme in Sri Lankan (Sinhalese) literature and folklore. The term "Kunuharupa" specifically translates to "puppy love" or "crush," while "Katha" means "story" or "tale."
This is the oldest katha in our exclusive collection, dating back to the Kandyan Kingdom. A king had seven wives. The sixth wife, jealous of the seventh queen’s diamond earrings, sought out a Kattadiya (sorcerer). The sorcerer told her: “Place a broken mirror at the bottom of the well where the queen fetches water. When she sees her reflection, the Kunuharupa will reverse onto her.” sinhala+kunuharupa+katha+exclusive
