The collection was written during Aruni’s time at the University of Sri Jayewardenepura, as part of her final thesis for the Diploma in Writership and Communication. Blending personal insight with literary craft, Aala Sallapa marks a mature and introspective phase of Aruni’s early writing journey. It remains a deeply personal and relatable body of work for readers who have loved, lost, or lived with the quiet echoes of affection.
This collection marked a turning point in Aruni’s literary journey, earning her national attention as a rising voice in contemporary poetry. In 2014, the Sri Lanka Press Council hosted a dedicated poetry reading and public discussion on the book — a rare recognition for a school-aged author. Kaviya Numba Sulaga Se Vith remains a defining early work that introduced Aruni’s lyrical style and emotional depth to the literary world, continuing to resonate with readers who seek authentic, soul-driven storytelling in verse.
