He was the son of Kṛṣṇa who was the eldest son of Divākara of Golāgrāma (page 154). He was born in śaka 1508. He was guided in his studies biy his uncles Viṣṇu and Mallāri. He wrote a commentary on the Sūrya Siddhānta entitled Saurabhāṣya in śaka 1533. It explains the theory and contains 4200 verses. His commentary on the Siddhānta Śiromaṇi named Vāsanā Vārtika was written in śaka 1543. It was also called Vāsanā-Kalpalatā and the number of verses in it is 5500. From both these commentaries it seems that he had a sound knowledge of astronomy. His son Divākara has written that he was very proficient in Mīmāṃsā.
