What to Focus On

  • Krishnadeva Raya was an illustrious ruler of Vijayanagara.
  • He was also a gifted poet and an eminent warrior.
  • Ashtadiggajas is the collective title for the eight celebrated poets in his court.
  • The queen is Thirumalambal.
  • The quarrel began over a trivial matter.
  • The queen’s yawning came from exhaustion, not disrespect.
  • Rama used a strategy instead of a direct argument.
  • The court discussion was about paddy cultivation.
  • Rama claimed the paddy seeds would triple the yield.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The queen insulted the king by yawning on purpose while he recited his poem.
