v1.c8.s13.53

It is very likely that Kālidāsa lived for some time in the Vākāṭaka court and we may well presume that part of his Meghadūta was composed at Rāmaṭeka, the place of his hero's exile. The only work that can be definitely ascribed to the Deccan of the Vākāṭaka age is the Prākṛit poem Setubandha, written by King Pravarasena II and revised by the poet Kālidāsa himself.
