Chhura loses his Crab curry
Chhura is often represented as a man of immense strength and stature, of an easy-going disposition, but not much blessed with brains. Thus one story tells of how, being on a visit, he was regaled with a crab stew, which he had not tasted before, an liked greatly. He inquired of what animal it was made as he wanted to ask his wife to prepare the same.

On his was home he forgot the name of that dish and commenced searching since he could not recollect the name and how it was made. Someone seeing him looking about asked what he had lost there. 'Stupid' replied Chhura; 'If I knew, would I be looking for what I've been searching?' The passer by thereafter helped him in searching what he really did not know. After sometime the passerby remarked that he smelt strongly of crab's potted curry.

Then Chhura cried, 'That's it! That's what I was searching for, now I remember its name'. Knowing the name once again he became so much pleased and went on his way.

His mallet head, a roughly dressed cylinder of stone, about 30 inches long and 18 inches in diameter, is pointed out to the curious, lying beside the path between the village of Leng and Lingvum, where it is said to have fallen when it flew off the handle while Chhura was flattening the earth in the Vanlaiphai valley some five miles away.

A large spherical stone in the same neighbourhood is pointed out as one of the pellets shot from his pellet bow when he was at Thenzawl, many miles distant.
