Who wrote the book, Kiratarjuniya?
Detailed Explanation:
Bharavi, a 6th-century Sanskrit poet, authored Kiratarjuniya, a mahakavya (epic poem) depicting the battle between Arjuna and Shiva disguised as a mountain hunter (Kirata). It is renowned for its intricate poetic embellishments and linguistic virtuosity.
Bhatti wrote Bhattikavya, Shudraka authored the play Mrichchhakatika, and Kalidasa composed classics like Shakuntala and Meghaduta—none wrote Kiratarjuniya.
Therefore, Bharavi is the author of Kiratarjuniya, making Option 4 the correct answer.
