Amuktamalyada is a celebrated epic poem attributed to Krishnadevaraya, the famous ruler of the Vijayanagara Empire. Krishnadevaraya was not only a great warrior and administrator but also a noted scholar and patron of arts and literature. He composed Amuktamalyada in the Telugu language.

Amuktamalyada is considered one of the masterworks of Telugu literature and is recognized as one of the Pancha Kavyas (five great epics) of Telugu literature. Krishnadevaraya himself is known as Andhra Bhoja for his patronage of Telugu literature.

While Krishnadevaraya was multilingual and wrote in Sanskrit as well, Amuktamalyada is his famous work in Telugu. The Vijayanagara Empire encompassed areas where Telugu, Kannada, and Tamil were spoken, but Krishnadevaraya’s literary patronage significantly boosted Telugu literature during his reign.
