Kadal Pura

Sea Pigeon) is a Tamil language historical novel written by Sandilyan.

The story is based on the ancient Tamil Chola dynasty.

The novel is about the Chola kingdom's invasion of Srivijaya (modern-day Malaysia and Singapore) and Kalinga (currently the state of Orissa).

It's a work of historical fiction with a few characters thrown in anachronistically (for example, Aguda was born in 1068, but appears in the novel as a 25-year-old).

Dr L. Kailasam continued the story in his victimology based novel Rajali, and the historical characters of Kadal Pura appeared in Rajali in their old ages.
