1.Kalidas was a classical Sanskrit writer & is widely regarded as the greatest poet & dramatist in #Sanskrit language. His plays and poetry are primarily based on Vedas, Ramayana, Mahabharata and Puranas. #महाकविकालिदासः #Kalidas_Icon_of_India
Scholars have speculated that Kalidas may have lived near the Himalayas, in the vicinity of Ujjain, and in Kalinga. #महाकविकालिदासः #Kalidas_Icon_of_India
The hypothesis of his place is based on detailed description of the Himalayas in his Kumārasambhava, the display of his love for Ujjain in Meghadūta, and his highly eulogistic descriptions of Kalingan emperor Hemāngada in Raghuvaṃśa. #महाकविकालिदासः #Kalidas_Icon_of_India
